BenBoxall23 Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 As above, what ECU for 350-400HP.Currently building and want to know what ECU to use any tips or anything else you need to know just ask. Thanks Quote
akyakapotter Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Talk to your tuner they will advise the best ecu that they use will be a standalone though Quote
gorganl2000 Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 will be whatever your tuner and your budget allows Quote
BenBoxall23 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Posted November 4, 2015 My builder is recommending a Apexi Power FC, just wanted a second opinion. What does everyone think of these? Quote

Socks Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Will limit you to the old ignition system which is going to struggle at 370-400bhp. With high boost. Power FC can comfortably get you in the mid 300s tho Quote
BenBoxall23 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Posted November 4, 2015 Thanks for your responces, any other options? Quote
AdamB Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Haltech, Link, DTA, OMEX, Emerald, Motec, Syvecs. If you're feeling really plush how about a Pectel? You need to specify a budget, you can spend upto about £12000 on a management system. Quote
BenBoxall23 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Posted November 4, 2015 Its only going to be a fast road car, cant imagine i'd need a 12k system. Quote
Phil Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Fast road link atom G4+Racing/time attack etc Link storm G4+Phil Quote
AdamB Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Link, Haltech, DTA, OMEX will do nicely. A power FC will also do the job, but as has already been mentioned, their ancient, so don't expect much in the way of features. Quote
ROTABOOST Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Mine is having Link G4+ Storm fitted at the moment, going over to coil on plug setup too. Personally I've not heard a bad thing about link and 2 of my mates run them with no issues at all, 1 on a skyline and the other on a glanza Quote
Stu Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I have been installing Link ecu's for 14+ years and fully recommend them. Solid and very reliable. The G4+ platform is going from strength to strength too, the current firmware and tuning software is fantastic. Quote
RobSR Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Link ecu's are very good like mentioned. Would have one over a Power FC 10x over. PFC's now are pretty cack. Quote
AdamB Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Another one I forget to mention is the AEM, they've come up in the world, and a lot of people are starting to use them. Quote
Stu Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Depending on your budget (and finding a competent tuner who has experience with them) there's quite a few that are pretty good. Link is still my preference but the Motec M1 series are awesome and the latest offerings from Haltech and AEM are also pretty rad. If you really wanted you could make 350-400hp on just about any ecu but its how easy it is to setup and reliable the tune is that matters. Newer ecu's have alot more scope for advanced variables with overlay maps and fail safes etc that can give you a lot more piece of mind. Quote
