Why the change of ECU? 

 

Never heard of a Emtron 

how do they compare to the elite 2500?

I would say that the features they advertise actually work. Might even be able to track a Nissan cas unlike the haltech elite.

Emtron is Scott from Insight motorsports own ECU. I would say it pisses on a haltech as you do not need to buy a box everytime you want your ecu to do something. I also believe it has alot more inputs and outputs etc also. 

Basically i believe an emtron is knocking on the door of high end motec kinda stuff feature wise without motec pricing ?

Im sure someone can correct me if im wrong Lol!

I like my passenger floor not to be filled up with "add on boxes". Lol. 

Emtron was developed by Scott at Insight. For what it can do it's very reasonably priced... And no need for extra boxes! The Blackbox wouldn't do a couple things that I wanted it to do. Great piece of gear though. 

[Deano 1]

Hmm your not wrong about those stupid add on boxes, they also drive the price up the of them you have. 

 

Im in the market for a new ecu for my new build. 

I might look into the Emtron

IMO if you're chasing anything decent power it's time for a trigger setup. Gets rid of a variable.

What at sort of $$ for the Emtron? Are they easy to tune or very specialised bit of kit? That's probably where the Haltech range are attractive, they're quite easy to tune (up to a point anyway). 

Cant wait to see this thing bangin through the gears! ETA on completion?

Emtron KV8 (there is a 12 and 16) was like $3,200 GST inclusive. $880 for a patch look so you don't hack up your OEM loom. 

I would like to think not long but it also needs time for ECU install. That's tuner dependant. We all know how it is. Lol.

8 weeks perhaps? At a guess.

I'd firstly work out exactly what features u need then make a decision on the right ecu for you. I previously had a vipec then moved to blackbox as it had the additional ports I required....nowa days, more tuning shops are playing blackbox which is favourable as well

I guess there is no point in spending more if it's not needed...

Marcus!

if you have time, flick me a call when you're free and I'll give as much info as I can. I don't know specific costs yet but I'll get a bill at the end I'm sure.

By no means is this thing going to be a track pig only car. Drive it to work on Saturdays, go down the coast for lunch. That sort of stuff.

fizzing at the bung to get it going. So close now

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

Should dose good lol

Suuuuuututututu

[Mick_o]

Paul will change setups if this thing doses! ?
