Piggy-back Vs Stand Alone

I searched and couldn't find a direct answer to my question(s). Im talking about an RB25DET NEO... :

What would you recommend, a stand alone engine management system, or a piggy-back system ? Looking at around 250rwkw on a SAFE tune. Which EMS would be better ? Maybe be pushing to crack 300-350 eventually, but not TOO MUCH more then that.

And the other question is, which models would you recommend in your choice above ?

I heard that the E-Manage can fry the coils on the NEOs ? Anything else like this that i should know about when moving on from a stock ecu ?

Any info is greatly appreciated.

KISIN.

if your chasing 300kw toward the end you might aswell go standalone. depending on how much money you actually want to spend will determine what sort of ecu you will be looking at? what sort of coin are you looking at spending? under $1000 look towards going power fc under 2000 motec

Well I'm planing on building a second engine so i wont need to get it done in a hurry in order to have my car on the road. Which means i can take my time, and I'm willing to spend extra cash on something that will benefit me in the long run.

Get an HKS F-CON V Pro; you won't go back to anything else... and HKS99 does not know what he's talking about; you don't need standalone ECUs for big power... the world's fastest GTRs (top 10); 6 of them are all running this ECU.

yeah depending where you are located.. you try putting a HKS F-CON V PRO in try getting it tuned in Gold Coast or Brisbane!

thus why i listed a power fc as there is never a shortage of tuners avaliable.

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
