Has anyone heard of anyone using this new piggyback ecu?

I's suppose to be the new replacement for the Power FC, I Used to have the SAFC2 and SITC combo on my r33 Auto and was considering giving this ago as it seems like the most logical ecu to use especially considering i have an auto and don't want to jeopardise my shift quality.

Was looking into the Emanage Ultimate but after seeing this i'm not sure what i want to do. Have searched the internet and not found anyone who has tried it yet.

My Tuner said it would be the better way to go than using the emanage ultimate.

I sent Greenline an enquiry asking if it will be alright for my car haven't heard back yet, if they reply and say it will be alright i will order it and install it next week and let everone know how it goes. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Here's a link If anyones interestedhttp://www.takakaira.com/asp/template.asp?...PQqMnNnikJlhoKj

its been out for a while, but so far nothing on it

its only supported on the wrx auto for some stupidhead reason

its an line loom splitter that you plug between your stock ecu and the device itself, much like an emanage or fcon

my advice, given no one knows anything about it or selling it, forget it, dont even bother. wait a few years.

i cant see it replacing the powerfc any time soon

That's really stupid if it's only designed for the WRX Auto, I find it weird that their isnt much information about it and not many people have seemed to use it. I will wait back from a reply from greenline to see what they have to say about it.

What's the APEXi SITC you have in your signature?

Is that an ignition controller?

Meaning you already have some fuel and ignition control?

And you're in an auto?

If it's auto, pretty sure SydneyKid does all his autos with emanage.

Great looking software comes with it.

There's a thread somewhere with heaps of Emanage Ultimate pics.

If it's manual, you have heaps of other choices.

      Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!

      Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.

      Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.

      Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
