Lets play the Indentify this ecu game

I know for a fact, I've never seen an ecu like this...it's not your typical ebay jdm ecu's that everyone has seen already...it seems like much more to me

I'm pretty sure some of the old school tuners will have an idea of what it is

The information I can gather from it is, it was made in the usa, (had standard sized fasteners holding the 2 extra sister boards) it's clearly well crafted and was used in the world challenge days (I'm guessing extremely basic modification could be done to the car, hence why it's in the semi stock ecu box, from first glace a race tech wouldn't be able to notice the difference)

I have high res pictures hosted on my skydrive, if you would like to see

Thanks for the help guys

i've never seen anything like it. i wonder what it does? since it uses the stock connector, we can assume they didn't add anything, like injectors.

the WC Fc's were really neat, but i don't really recall anything about em, and there is NOTHING on the internet about it.... i don't even know what the rules were.

S5 turbo?

I found this post requesting "WTB: S5 turbo ECU (n370)" on the colorado mazda club site...

http://www.coloradomazdaclub.com/for...ead.php?t=6216


There are a lot of threads on this forum tagged with N370, too. Several mention S5 turbo.

Well it's definitely a turbo S5 ECU.

Not sure what the Z03 designation is referring to though.

There appears to be many IC's that have been replaced as well.

I also noticed some jumpers on the board I've not noticed before on a stock S5 T2 ECU. Although, it could have been something the company that mod'd the ECU may have done to fix a bad pathway.

Maybe one of the guys at Rtek/pocketlogger would recognize the work? You tried emailing them? Or PM'ing them in here?

On the sticker is just said the isc circuit has been modified.

It looks like a knight sports chipped ecu

^ 2 whole boards, yea i plan on contacting someone from digital turning this weekend but for the most part, my mechanic was able to tell me it's tuned to use the stock 550's, other than that it's still a mystery...last car that it was in, ran amazing

Judging from the picture's on the knight sports website, the daughter boards really have nothing in common (well I'm talking about the layout of the second board)....

and it's true what j9fd3s said...you can't find any information on WC Mazda cars on the internet haha, it's funny how I actually found something that isn't on the internet at all
