Whitenoize Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Plug and play ecus are a good up grade I've never had a buddy club is it the brack box one? I saw a post on here not long ago about sumone that was running one and made very little power on the rollers have a search about on the forum I'm sure sumone is running a buddy club Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Buddy club brack box ecus are rare as f**k. I would snap it up right away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fozzie Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 They don't fetch a whole lot, if you get £30-40 you've probably done alright Quote Link to post Share on other sites
burgess18 Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 Right okay only prob is the guy selling it had all the same mods as me and this ecu an he rolled 131bhp lol he said it was due to the timing etc but mine ran 174 with a blowing manifold at 0.7 bar on a ct9 with Fmic, Decat, hks car back, uprated fuel pump, now Im going for 200bhp an I've added a fuel cut defender a boost controller screamer pipe an a rising rate sard regulator recon I will need the uprated ecu as dont Wana spend all that money an it make the car run less power no one has any info on it I have a dyno booked for Saturday want as near 200 as possible Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 See I knew ther was sumone making crap power on one of them it could be sumthing else up with his set up if he's not far from you go and try it on your car if he's sure the ecu works 100% he shouldn't have a problem with this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 dont bother running a FCD or RRFPR with this ecu as it usually runs better with the stock FPR and the ECU also removes fuel cut so there is no point in running the FCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
