link install costs involved?

[QRAF]

After my car not going for a number of day i started to suspect i fried my ecu so started to look for another one but that was easier said than done.

But i did find a link plug an play link and at the time i didn\'t want it as i thought my loom might of been the issue and didn\'t want to fry this one as well.

So long story short i got my car going and it wasn\'t the ecu but now i\'m thinking i should get that link as its a plug and play one so would just plug into my loom.

I\'m just wondering if anyone has had any experience with them before and whats the costs of getting it tuned and what not, I\'m in Hamilton

Million dollar question. Ring D-tech and get a deal on supplying/fitting/tuning worth the trip from what customers say.

He is on my list for when I get my link in.

Maybe I should just do it - instead of buying all this other stuff

I\'ve been told to expect anywhere from $600-1200 so thats nearly 2grand all up worst case.

Fitting and setting it up so it runs/is driveable to tuner is easy. Just need to weld in a bung for IAT and wire up IAT and MAP if you want more boosties. Buying and tuning it costs the money.

its just a plug and play one so will just plug into my factory loom so would be any installing that i\'m aware of.

so would i need to buy one of these

man i hope i\'m going to be looking at the same thing tonight then as i won\'t be paying that much ;D

Is it just an early possumlink?

[QRAF]

i will see tonight but it might be at the price

Te rapa automotive did mine in the RA, I think mine was about $500 to tune.

If you get a plug and play one setup your IAT sensor, run the wires for it and then drive to the tuner on stock ECU.

Worst case scenario you wire the IAT in at there workshop, its a 2 min job and they tune. $1000 should get you a tune no issues and Tintins price above is awesome if you can get the same.

Oh also depending on the ECU you may need an extended loom to do an AFM delete, I had to get one but I cent remember exactly why.

Well it was a possum link didn\'t have the controller I guess that\'ll be a issue? Do I need anything extra with those will be in a better financial position tomorrow.

Or to I rebuild my adjustables man 21st century problems lol.

[Johnnynz]

Could probably borrow a controller to tune it? They seem to get loaned out for a small fee from time to time.

Personally I would hold out for a G4, I only paid $800 for mine a few years ago, was a mint deal at the time but they do come up from time to time.

So i have a bh that Im converting to single turbo using a vf30 ,split fuel rail and yellow injectors with a 500hp pump, I have bought a G4+ atom and Im planning on using the map sensor that comes in the bbod,

Im hoping the ecu can be wired into the existing loom, Im no electrican so I\'ll be looking for some one to do this, just looking to pick some brains at cost info as I am steadiy approaching the ecu intsall and tune phase of my single turbo conversion.
