Chrome ECU tally & feed back

[Greg E]

Its quiet in here again. Figured I'd get an updated list of everyone running a chrome ECU right now and also I'm very curious to see what you guys think of it. Even if its negative feedback I want to hear it!

4. Works perfect like stock, more fuel coming for e85 soon. (be careful running stock wastegate duty cycles with bigger turbos )

5. Its the best thing ever. Had it since last year, running 1000cc injectors, starts and runs like a bone stock vr4.

Still running V1, been happy with it, and that's the reason I haven't put V2 on it yet but that's coming soon.

8. Love it thus far. Betting ive put more miles on mine than most in the 1.5 or so years its been installed. Will have 4 TT's running on it by this summer. One of those will hopefully be a 500awhp build.

There are two downsides. Ive heard about switchable maps coming. This is a must for most of us who street and strip our cars. The other is; how do i turn on the taco periphery?

i switched to v2 almost immediately

i wont say these are complaints, but hopefully constructive criticism. you have met me before greg, so i hope you know this is coming from me desiring to be helpful...

- i think a lot of the description of things you can modify could be 'dumbed down' a lot more. especially for the people just getting into tuning
- idk if this is affecting other people, but the Hz scale ending at 1600 is no good for me. max that sucker almost immediately
- this isnt your fault, but i wish there was some more how-to's and first hand 3S experience to learn from. i like reading about specifics before i dive into things

i could nit-pick some more, but its just not worth it. it is single handedly the most valuable modification i have done to my car, and arguably the best modification that i have seen come available since i have been part of the 3S world. i hope that i can answer a lot of peoples questions in the future when i dive into my tuning and learn the hard way.

i will be sure to post questions when i have them, that way people that have the same questions can see responses easier/quicker

Lovin' it. Greg, can you update the links at the top of the Who wants their ECU chomed thread - they seem to have restructured the forum so the /f104/ path is dead.
