got my ecu out and figured out it wasnt the kind of ecu that u just pop the chip in. not a plug and play. the chip needs to be soldered in! great!
does anyone see how exactly to solder this to the ECU? the legs on the chip are way too short to make a good contact. they need to be bent at a 90* angle before they can be soldered, and they just wont reach far enough.
and no that pale bit between the legs doesnt come out, its part of the chip, its glued in there.
at the moment im just running it on stock software but when i get the chip sorted ill get that in there to have it run even better.
i have had it on the road for about two and a half weeks now with about 650 kms so far, all under 5K rpm so far. im gonna keep it at that until about a thousand, then ill take it out to redline.
even just driving around normally, its got SO much more torque than before.
up to 5K it pulls like a freakin train, its unbelievable, i love it.
the sound on start up is really nice with the cams too. just enough to have a little lump, even when its warm. i can always turn the idle a little lower if i want more
the clutch is a bit heavier than before and much more catchy.
still got the exhaust i got it with which is basically just the stock front muffler with a pipe to some noname back box, exiting out a 1.85" pipe ( measured the other day) and it sounds absolutely NUTS. especially between buildings. and in tunnels.
Next on the list is getting some decent pipes for the exhaust cos obviously 1.85" is not bit enough for this.
also going to port out the downpipes from mani to cat that i have spare and swap those over. and get some sort of shield to avoid the pod sucking up hot air from the engine bay.
and get my ABS fixed some how.
if anyone knows anything about that chip let me knwo yeah?
i had a video but i cant find it now, ill try later.
yeah i know that was a heap of pictures but what is such a thread without them?
I AM A HAPPY CAMPER
