Quick vid of quick tune...the Vi-PEC program that allows the car to tune itself. Simply set the target air fuel table for desired AFR's, hook a wideband up to the ecu and watch the magic happen.

Is this a Paid ad or does Link/Vipec get this all for free?

its not an infomercial...its a community service announcement.

Guilt-Toy tried filling the car up with E85...with a BP98 tune in the ecu...touched nothing...after a few stumbles on fire up the car happily idled like a dream. A few K's of driving up the road and it was retuned for the new fuel...it was freaky.

All new ECUs are like that now. Ive put about 15 Racecars onto E85 this year with most brand ECUs and found it a much easier fuel to tune.

The only thing that was touched up with the tuning by human input was the timing...the ECU tuned the fuel map automatically.

Im going E85 in my drag car after Jamboree...NIB how was the power ouput in your racecars when switching to E85 ? what fuel were you using before ?

Most are IP so the gains are not huge but still better than I expected but IP Power we don't talk about.

Sports sedans have had huge boost response improvement and very strong power/Torque gains. I use Powerplus Race fuel as its shown good gains over

The stuff mixed by Racefuels. E85 has well out performed VP109 etc. Try for yourself, I find power claims on the net lead to flaming so I'll leave it at that.

We have a basic RB25 powered S13 Sportssedan that way out run Ex Toll V8 Supercars using stock head and Poncams as an example.

....and an authorised Vipec dealer told me he took more than 10 hours to retune and switched my car over to E85.

The tune was also that good that I ripped the ecu out of my car.

My V88 + r32 gtr adaptor board is for sale if someone like so save a few dollar.

This is also a free community service announcement :P

no good, id love to see the maps out of that ecu to narrow down a reason. We use quite a few links and e85 (any fuel for that matter) has given me no dramas. MD does your tuning yeah? surely he has reasons, being reputably one of the best tuners around.

No it was not MD Trent.

If it was MD it would have been a max of 1 hour. He knows my engine like the back of his hand.

I am in Gold Coast atm, I wished I sent the car back to Adelaide.

Thats what i wanted to hear, i know how good MD is and i figured it would have been a piece of cake for him. I thought he found a fundamental issue hence your reason for pulling the ecu :thumbsup:

Can you wait till you return to SA to tune the V88 or is the GC thing a permanent thing.

Thanks Uras. I will be be in GC for some time and not sure when I will be back to SA.

MD offered to help but I don't really want to send the car down and risk blowing it up during transport.

His friend is helping me out up here. His friend has more experience, support and confidence with the Autronic, so that is being installed atm.

At the end of the day it's all up to the tuner for me. The ECU is just a tool that sometimes makes the job easier.

can i ask who on the gold coast?

Vipec people , need to know if the V44 can have alternate injector drivers fitted in the case to run low impedance/peak and hold injectors . I read on there site about an adapter box but would prefer to have it in the one simple unit .

I ask because I'm looking at using one in a four cylinder application with old hose barb style injectors . All the easy ones are low impedance so may need to use them .

Cheers and thanks , Adrian .

BTW if this works out well may look at a plug in for the R33 .

huge thread, looks good.. anyone know rough pricing for the ecu itself? (since it just plugs into the factory loom, no install costs required yeh?)

they were $1650 inc GST when i bought one for our circuit GTR. That was a while ago but price should be around that mark.

    • You still want a proper tune on the stock ECU though. Stock tune + stock ECU with GT-SS/-9s is probably playing with fire if you're running more than stock airflow/power.
    • I like their veal scallopini.
    • Definitely a hearty eater when we go out, I consider these meals my cheat day as I've been watching my calories in and calories out pretty hard since my little fun size stroke, I've gone from a fat boy of 89 Kg, I'm only 165cm tall/short, down to a almost semi lean 73 Kg over the last few years, I'm currently around 17% body fat which my doctor is very happy with, but, my goal is to slowly get down to and maintain 15%,so yeah, I want all of the protein, carbs, fats and sugars when I go out for a binge
    • There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater
    • Thanks for coming back to post the update, maybe it will help out the next person!
