excellent choice of ECU's you really cannot get any better than MOTEC, could not make it yesterday I still sour about that. Check F. he bought one from me back in June I really taught it was for you since they inquire how to unlock ECUTEK. |
Yes Gerard the Motec is definitely one of the top ECU's around, however I recently learnt that the Motec M800 does not support air conditioning, ACD and other accesssories I am not willing to live without. There may be additional options which may support these accessories, not too sure yet. |

Second tune being done by Nov 8 with new stroked motor. New pistons, rods, crank etc.
Will post dyno results later on. |
UPDATE:
First tune did not go too well because there were issues with the map. I did an EcuTek tune as one of my first mods. My tuner could not have accessed the EcuTek map so I had the original map reinstalled, well what we thought was the original map.
Apparently the map that was reinstalled was not the original map from my ECU. I'm sure this was done in error though. Because it was the incorrect map, we had several issues with getting the tune right, hence making the power we expected.
We began thinking it was the AP turbo kit, the exhaust manifold ports not matching the turbo manifold, we thought about the spring rates from the wastegates, boost leaks etc. So I called Agency Power and spoke to a couple people up there. I found them to be really helpful. Matt from AP explained that the R&D that went behind developing the kit was significant and they sold many of these kits with no issues. He went on to explain in detail about the individial quality items which came with the kit and so on. I mean I didn't expect him to say otherwise, but in my experience I felt that he was he wasn't being honest and genuine.
MY personal opinion is that we do not have a problem with any mechanical issue. It's the tune / map problem.
SOLUTION:
After speaking to Matt and AP, I began receiving emails from a guy called Mitch. He's the tuner for Vivid Racing, a company out of Arizona with another office in the UK. Very professional organization. Mitch has offered a solution for me and this should be completed by tomorrow. He assures me that with my present mods at 20psi we can achieve a safe 500hp.
So here's a link you guys can check out"

Not too sure. I did purchase the turbo kit from Vivid though. They are one of the more professional shops I've dealt with. They are definitely one of the more serious performance shops in that area of the US.
My experience with them have always been very good. |

bro, I don't know who your tuner is but if he told you that Motec does not support AC and ACD I suggest you look around for a new one quick, also it does not matter what map was loaded on the X all this can be retuned and rebuild once you map trace and see what is going on, I made 452whp and 432tq last thursday with a IX that has stock internals on the stock ECU @ only 26psi with 0 knock the owner did not want to push the motor any more.
