Anyone ever used an ECU032?

Post by DE80q »

So I have an old(but new) redline ECU032, aka 034 stage 1 EFI. Not to be confused with the Ia though, this came out first. I will be using this on my 20vt build. Was wondering if anyone has any experience tuning one of these. Cant find much info at all on it. I got the software for it from architect over on MG, but haven't gone much farther than that yet, as I am still building the engine and waiting on some of the EFI parts to show up.

If you have ever used one of these please let me know, as i will surly need help with tuning in the very near future.

I got it for dirt cheap, with a 20v fuel rail. Both were never used. Should be interesting to try and tune it. Not too many people have ever even heard of it.

I will be using a wide band to aid in tuning. Do you recomend anything eles?

Keep up the 4 hours of sleep per night and we'll be asking you the same thing in a couple years...like what color was your hair when you did your first 07k swap???

More like "didn't you used to have hair before you started that 07K swap?"

I can see that being an issue when trying to adapt a transverse engine for longitudinal duty :P :P :P

if you bought it from Myke that used to be my ecu. small world, but then again I wonder how many of those things Javad actually sold back in the day, anyway.
