ages lol... plenum is getting re-done in 6mm n good for 100psi. so when thats back ill put it on n hopefully put motor in.... fab exhaust n cooler pipes. finish body work. put some tyres on my wheels. blah blah ect ect

Will it go onto a GTST gearbox, Ben?... What's it like to drive?

If you get you bottom end back before I get my motor I am going to personally drive to your place and smack you in front of your friends. >.<

Just a heads up for anyone that doesn't know much about ECUs and what ECU to get... Please just trust my judgment and most other knowledgeable people in this thread / forum and buy a Vipec or Link G4 that suits your vehicle.

Microtech are by far the shittiest ECU I have ever seen. PowerFC is even 10x better.

f**k. And they still market this shit at $2k just for the ECU. Why aren't they out of business yet....?

Because they do exactly what they say they are going to do and they do it reliably. Don't get me wrong, I f**ken hate Microtech ECU's but they are built for an intended purpose. The LT10 and 12 were never designed to be a high end ECU so I'm not sure why the price tag but they have definitely been making cars go fast for more than a decade.

They are shit to tune, yes. They have hardly any features or outputs/inputs, yes. There are much better ECU's on the market for most street applications, yes.

Most Microtech street applications were born from small wallet syndrome so unfortunately they were applied to cars they shouldn't have been.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
