CeJay Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'm buying some parts from Ed, but most of my parts are through Trojan who today gave me a quote which was much the same as Slide (and they knew nothing of what Slide quoted) - I'm glad I'm able to do something through them because they have always been helpful to me. I'm going through Ed for the install because 1) Mark jacked up on me and doesn't want to do it and 2) Erol (my mentor/professor/idol) knows Ed and he will let Erol work with him on the tune. I don't believe Ed has setup/tuned a Vi-PEC before, and although he seemed hesitant, he was still happy to work with us on it. Eds been lovely to deal with as well. We're going to dyno before and after. She's booked in for the 23rd and she races at Mt Panorama on 7th & 8th March for round 2 & 3 of the NSW Championship. Everybody LOVES Bathurst, so I expect there will be a huge turnout. I know the GT-SS is approx $1500 more than the -7, but all reports seem to point to the fact that they are more responsive... besides, she deserves it LOL I haven't decided on the injectors yet... I'll probably go with what Ed recommends. I don't mind the feedback and these guys know me well enough that they can throw some opinions my way, besides, it makes me think outside the box. Someone who is partial to frangipanis on his car will probably be the next one to give me some cheek Nice results at the hillclimb btw. You buying the v44 or v88? I did ask Ed a while ago if would tune VI-PEC ecu's but he was more non committal then.

I did ask Ed a while ago if would tune VI-PEC ecu's but he was more non committal then. Neither - I'm going the plugin ecu http://www.vi-pec.com/page_files/pluginecu.htm for $1765 but it is based on the v44 model Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/255651-sdma-hillclimb-this-sunday-8-feb-and/page/3/#findComment-4432901 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michele Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 Getting back to John on the -5 vs GTSS - I've been advised that the GTSS is better for hillclimb/supersprints Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/255651-sdma-hillclimb-this-sunday-8-feb-and/page/3/#findComment-4432911 Share on other sites More sharing options...
a20089 Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'd better clarify, its not the upgrade he's objectional to... its the part where he has to do the work. He hasn't stopped and needs a break. That was what I was referring to Anf the GT-SS are so much better then the -5's for hill climb work. Still we can compare when I finally get my injectors etc. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/255651-sdma-hillclimb-this-sunday-8-feb-and/page/3/#findComment-4432957 Share on other sites More sharing options...
