Bugger, defected?

Good luck tracking down something suitable, time is not on your side but hopefully someone will be able to help you out.

Hopefully something straight out of the box will be suitable for you but it sounds like you need something like the nistune where you can twiddle with it until it is the exact way you want it.

Kind Regards

Why the week time frame? And what's wrong with yours? If your worried about the turn around on nistune I sent mine to Nistune in SA on a Monday from QLD and recieved it back Thursday morning. And I'm sure any workshop that does Nistune install and tunes will have a day turn around. It's going to be just as long for any other ecu especially if it's an universal wire in ecu.

Edit: you replied before my post. Is a stock ecu no good because of the mods you have?

What mods do you have?

To an extent, the type of cats you have are just as important as having a relatively decent tune.

Bugger, I'm glad my neighbors don't complain like that. It may be worth your while taking it to an exhaust expert and seeing what they think. If you have to get it to a certain db or something they may come up with a relatively easy and hopefully not too expensive solution.

Or you could go to the trouble of putting everything back to standard but seems like a waste if it's something you can work around.

An aftermarket ecu will do next to nothing about your emissions (Well, the specific gases that are measured in an emissions test)

Euro4 Spec cat for under $500. You will pass.

If you want, fit your old cat back up after and sell it.

If you are using a tuner couldn't you get away with a decent piggy back system?

Or is he after an ecu that he can remap?

I can't see what a tuner could do with an ecu that has been modded but not chipped to allow remapping.

"I changed nothing except the thermostat since getting it back from Unigroup. Passed with 238rwkw power tune, gt-rs, fmic, cams, 740cc injectors, pfc, 3" turbo back and xr6t cat.

Yavuz suggested the XR6 turbo cat and said it should pass with one on there when picking it up from the tune. "

Quoted from another site.

Seems alot of people over in the eastern states (You guys ) have had some success with the XR6T Ceramic 3" cat. $120 and away you go!

i dunno the mrs spoke to him while i was at work

Best ecu for emissions = Standard!!!

Fit new cat, check O2 sensor operation and should be no problem.

[GoldZilla]

An R34 PowerFC (if you can find one) with the "Secret Squirrel" mod (I'm sure wolverine will cover this) is probably your best bet if you want an aftermarket one...

[fat-lad]

but if it comes down getting tested by the epa if it has a front mount it wouldnt pass would it??, the front mounts the drama were having here
