I know this topics been beaten to death but....

i want an ecu that is basically plug and play or along those lines... I was thinking about the M2 or Pettit ecu's or any other similar types.. i need some input from you guys,

so yeah trying to stay away from ecu's like th PFC, which needs hard core tuning and dyno time...

thnx

 

Well if you do a search under the ECU Forum area you will receive alot of info. about what is best for what stage of modification your car is at or how far you want to go. I just chose the Pettit Unlimited because it allows you to tweak the boost up to 1 bar (14.7). It is probably the best mapped computer for all the major external mods you can do (bolt-ons) without having Dyno time.(Although to get maximun utilization of your car's horsepower dyno time is a must). I was going to do the Power FC and eventually will but got an unreal deal on a used Pettit so I went that way for now. Just do a search for more info....That is how I learned a great deal!!!!!!Good Luck!!!!G.......
P.S. I also installed a boost controller which (obviously) enables me to adust the boost....

 

Pettit's unit is very nice. That is the one I went with however I should have gone with the Power FC. Oh well, I intend on spending a lot on my car and eventually going single turbo soooo...
The pettit works great though. NO problems what-so-ever since I installed it. You do however need some way of keeping the boost down. If you go over 14.7psi for some reason *boom*.

PFC needs no tuning or dyno time. Without the commander just hte box, which is comaprabley priced to other ECUs, needs nothing just plug and go. Also have all the benefits of 16 bit processor and the ability to go apeshit with your car.
And furthermore, right out of box wit wil control boost as well, to 10 lbs.
