ECU code deletion

[BD5_RS]

Hi all

The missus has a GH7 Impreza S-GT, with the secondary air injection set up.

It threw a code a while back for a valve stuck open, I checked and cleared it and hasn't returned - but I'd like to sort the system permanently. Either blocking plates straight onto the block, or between the valve and metal line to the block depending on access. I've been looking at KSTech for these, and might just order both options (http://www.kstech.biz/subaru-air-pump-delete-kit-2006-wrx-sti-lgt-fxt/ & http://www.kstech.biz/subaru-air-pump-valve-block-off-plate-set-2006-wrx-sti-lgt-fxt/)

As we're based in New Plymouth, my previous plan was Dynotech Industries in Hawera to do the ECU work, but I believe he's now running STM in Lower Hutt?

So, my questions:

Is there anyone reputable in Hamilton, Palmy or closer to Taranaki that can delete these codes (would also be nice to turn off the cruise control upper speed limit). We're not really interested in a tune of any sort.

Can I send the ECU to someone to turn them off? Someone who has a quick turnaround preferably so it's not off the road for long.

Does anyone make the secondary air injection blocking plates in NZ? I know could get them made up from the bits I remove, but would prefer to have them ready to go and finish it all at once

Any help much appreciated

Cheers

Easy enough to do yourself if you can get hold of a tactrix cable. Just a matter of pulling the rom, deleting those codes in ecuflash, then saving the new rom back to the ecu.

Sure there will be someone nearby that has one.

Thats the list of codes that need disabling based on one of the lgt.com vendors doing a how-to

* P0410 * P0411 * P0413 * P0414 * P0415 * P0416 * P0417 * P0418 * P0419 * P2431 * P2432 * P2433 * P2441 * P2444

And there's your code explanation list

Thanks for that. I've now had a read through the LGT thread, learnt a bit more and realised there's a pressure sensor in one of the valves that I need to keep.

That'd explain the extra wires in that plug. I've ordered both sets of KSTech plates so I've got all options covered for blocking off or removing the valves.

I also downloaded EcuFlash and had a play with a generic WRX rom - looks like fun! I might leave that part of it to someone who's had some experience.

Still in Hawera every Friday, Saturday and Sunday if you would like it done
