hey guys, looking for something to replace my stock ecu so i can up the boost to around 10 or so without it hitting hard rich mixtures caused by the stock ecu, would this be a good replacement? what exactly will it do?

Its an early model Link (currently also sold as Vipec). It should enable all the usual: tune afrs, timing, eliminate speed limit, reset rev limit etc. You can probably get any specific questions answered by the factory:

do some reading and find out what you are buying and how much it will cost to install, setup and tune

do the same for the apexi powerfc - as per my sig, the powerfc faq has everything you need to know

yeah be aware the tuner cable is not longer available for these so you need to make sure your tuner can tune it, i have a few customers i have reffered to AVO here in melbourne as they are the only ones with the cable / handset... as it was discontinued years ago and is no longer supported.

Good ecu, just need the handset, but i see your in berwick so AVO will be able to tune it and they are fairly local (moorabin).

i have no idea with ecus, is there anything else that is readily available and easily tunable on the market? thats cheap? whats the cheapest option to go for? im not trying to get awesome power, i simply want to run 10psi without it running rich.

honestly most places charge 650-850 for a tune regardless of ecu so that ecu @ 450 + 650 is about the cheapest option around. Ring AVO and get a qoute for a tune and you will soon see what it will owe you in total.

do AVO supply ecus? obviously as an extra charge...

only the link G4 ecu's share the same hardware as the vipecs (or which ever way round you want to put it) the earlier model links are/were only sold as link

    • 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🤷‍♂️
