Buy my ecu that is already reflashed for you.... and from the same model car (I refused to say what car it is)

i have already have a stock ecu tuned at wrc , ecutek

[Guest Fastfour]

Then why are you wasting your time. Why do you need to upgrade to a link g4?

[Guest Fastfour]

You can do that on your factory one. Hence the reflash.

[wrx_lou]

You do realise that Links are made in NZ and arent 'JDM' right? :

You have way more money than brains.

While you're at it? Dude why would you spend all that money on one ECU, only to throw it out and get another one?

[Guest keltik]

Stock ones fine for what you want to do. Theres the advice. Buy the other crap, get headers and other useless shit and waste as much money as you like on it. I honestly couldnt care less. Just stop making wanted threads for parts you have no intention of buying.

[nt_a_foz]

you jus said you were going to reflash it again then get a link....

[GC8E2DD]

I think you should buy a Link, and then raffle it off on CS. Raffle it off. Raffle it off.

Can't really get much of a stronger drivetrain without rebuilding what you have out of massively expensive materials.

Just a question. Have you ever properly put your boot in it? I've found a few people that complain that they want more power out of their cars have never actually applied Wide Open Throttle (WOT) and hit full boost... you force them to, and they stop complaining

(Yes guys, I am SERIOUS)

or motec m800 , just want bit more power , ecu and fuel pump will be as far as i go ,

after that get a bigger turbo will make to much power the the stock internals

bigger turbo = forged internals = stronger drivetrain = wayyy to much money

so am just looking at fuel pump and ecu and that will be the end off it ,

So what is a G4 or M800 going to achieve that your current ECU can't already do?

[funkytown]

there is a frightning disillusion that (when tuned correctly) and therefore ecu at its peak (engine optimum kw).. wil make more kw beyond that.. when his fueling and air hasnt changed at all...

If only I was a mod or in the committee - this muppet would have been banned by now.

[Shale]

Hey now, don't let it all get under your skin ;D You're the one with the book and pen!

STM sells links so why not try get a deal from them.

TECHNICALLY workshops can't sell G4s for cheeper then the retail price as they can loose there dealership rights. and most places won't do any kind of deal unless there getting install and tune as theres very little money in parts.

a reflash covers most of what your doing as your not planning on changing your turbo or injectors.

Have you tht of opening a performance shop ?

[Guest Bemrose]

tune on a factory ecu

so yeah that will do nothing

[Guest]

tis a reflashable ecu, will do wat he needs

Clearly you dont know what you are talking about.

Later model ecu's are reflashable/tuneable like aftermarket ecu's essentially.

[BC5RA]

For clarification.

Factory reflashable ecus are only useful to optimize the stock setup.

You would go to a full aftermarket ecu when injector size is increased or any other similar modification.

[Guest Bemrose]

biggest waste of $1050 IMO

id put it towards a new ECU

[Guest Fastfour]

Justin had bigger injectors in his ver8 and that was running a reflashed ecu.
