Ok you guys are probally getting tired of my questions but I figured this may actually be a good one and may get some people posting good opinions

My mods to date:
Street Ported engine
HKS BOV
HKS Exhaust
Testpipe
DownPipe
Fluidyne Radiator
Cone Filter (cold air box next week)
Turbo Timer
Smog Pump Remove

Now my plan is to get 2 720 secondary injectors.

So would a E.L Prototypes chip be a better choice or a Super-AFC. I'm not getting a Haltech because tuning and the unit together are way to pricey. I hear that you can call E.L Prototype's and they will tune it to what mods you have.

 

ECU pros:
made for an FC, programmed by a professional, alters ignition timing, eliminates fuel cut
ECu cons:
not programmed for your specific car, not modifyable.

AFC pros:
can be tuned for your exact mods, better for controlling 720's (although with your mods im not sure you need to go that big) flexible if you make more mods later. looks flashy
AFC cons:
does not alter ignition timing or fuel cut. theives like things with blue screens. has to be tuned and has the potential to dextroy your engine if tuned improperly.

lots of people have an S-AFC so it wont be hard to get help there. my personal preference is the ECU, because it eliminates fuel cut in a way that's safer than a FCD. and it alters your ignition timing for more power and better gas mileage. i also dont plan on doing much in the way of power mods past full intake/exhaust and possibly an upgraded stock turbo. i think the ECU upgrade would be a good choice for something like that. but its different for everyone

 

Well supposedly the e.l Prototype's ecu can be tuned for your specefic needs.

I was thinking that I may even do a ECU upgrade and a S-AFC. What do you guys think about that?

 

I did both .. infact I got 2 different chips from EL proto.

 

Rpeck, since you have one of the chips can you explain if they actually will program it for your needs? There website appears to be down

 

Ya I had to send in a 3 page spec sheet with my ECU ... they wanted ALL the info .. I.E. size of my street ports .. cfm & setup of my hybrid turbo, intake setup .. injector seiz, exsaust system parameters... my goal for the car. All kinds of **** ... then they program it based on that. They told me; the more info I supply the more prodeuctive & accurate the chips would be. So I sent in ALL my info.

 

Awesome,

One question tho.

Lets say you upgraded a few parts...can you send the chip in and get it modified for the new/upgraded parts? I hope its only a small charge.

 

i recall someone saying that it was like 100 buxs to get it reprogrammed

 

Yup $100 to get it Re-done
