Our 197 map makes a very nice difference on the road. The graph on this thread is from the first car we mapped on another independant rolling road. We usually see +20 lbft very low down and 7-10hp peak.
More gains on these than the 1x2's!
Have a look on renaultsport, we have tuned a few of...
Oh deffo, i know that drive is a killer, especially in a day. It depends what people want at the end of the day, if they want the stock ecu tuning to suit many many mods then maybe its worth it :)
I'd hope so anyway, no complaints to date. Or not that i've heard anyway :D
Didn't realise my maps were all generic. Even before we got the dyno i used to travel to halifax to use another DD for people that wanted a more custom setup. Just makes it easier having my own now!
I'm sure you were over the moon when we did your car, even got a text as i remember saying how...
I think that the idle would be crap due to the map sensor readings been all over BUT i have never tried it and there may be ways round this. It certainly would be good and yes it would make the ITB conversions loads cheaper :)
Russ, just going to read the pm now. Will get back to you shortly

Nooooooo, u cant live map like that. The comms is far too slow. You have to take apart the ecu, take the chip off and connect the emulator. Basically you then have a pc as the "chip" but changes can be made in realtime :)
Standard ecu all day long, very simple control, easy to calibrate to other mods and will give performance as good as any stand alone. Only jump to other ecu's if you have really wild cams or itb's
Not quite sure why people say this really because the standard car is good for a map, instant difference felt on the road and proven gains on paper too :)
Good option if you dont want to mod anything else
Yes this is our map, we did some further development on k-tecs car so the final product is now finished. On average we see 20lbft very low down and 9hp peak. The one i did yesterday on the dyno made 10/12 lbft all the way over the rev range + an extra 9hp. I have graphs from our dyno and another...
Your standard result is way off mate. I see some only make 165 on our dyno and the figures will always be repeated. The 176 seems about right and torque a touch on the high side.
What dyno is it?
I would never touch longlife again with a barge pole! Unless i do take my car back again to put right the shocking workmanship.
Bends are poor
It does not fit
The decat is too long
The welds are not sealed
It's just crap!
It won't work as a replacement. Well it will run the car but the temp guage and a few other bits usually go mental!
The ecu on yours is used more on the 182 and has very different software to the other ecu

The older ecu's are prone to going wrong and can cause the problems described above. Find out all the data on your ecu as i might have a used one in stock that will get you working.
