i do dyno tuning for a living, and i would say that any computer will make similar power, but its everywhere else that you do 95% of the driving, and i find the interpolation of the load points on the microtech to be somewhat poor.

Is that tuning in matrix mode or normal

Cause yeah they only have 16 bit tuning from what i remember

Tuning in the normal mode will give you really poor economy if you dont tune it correctly.You will need someone who has tunes with them all the time.If you tune in matrix mode it will give you more tuning points but still needs more.The new Microtech LT16 will be a great ecu and cheap.If you wish to wait for it.32 bit map tuning and downloading to the laptop.

The haltech,Wolf,Motec,Autronic etc ecus have 32 bit

which means you have more tuning points in your load maps.Problem with most of these ecus is setting them up and installing them.But 90 % of them now come PLUG N PLAY and have a base map to get you started.

Your tuners should have a problem with haltech so if i were you id head that way.HALTECH E11 PLUG N PLAY.Or wait for the new Microtech which shouldnt be to far away

yes i have one a find it great had a few tuners look very funny at me when i told them i had one and said i should through it away.

i came across a workshop that had only ever dabled in them and they took the chalange to tune it and i have never looked back yes the link has a few little thing my tuner said he would like to get rid of but other then that im making good power and drivabilty is fine just got to get a good tune?

well thats my 2 cents if any more question pm RaceingLine he will be able to help you out.

but then again if i had a choice in ECU i would get somthing everyone can tune just to make it easyer to choose a workshop.

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
