Can you get HP improvements by installing a Power FC in an otherwise stock car?

 

i'm sure you can...from what i've read we run pretty rich with the stock ecu, so if you get a power fc and lean it a little i'm sure you can get more power. not sure about other settings.

 

I'm surprised that no one has anything more offer.

 

Probably cuz no one's done this before?

 

Probably because someone already talked about this and doesn't want to repeat themselves ... anything come up on a search?

 

I tried the search but everytime you stick in a two letter word like 'FC' it craters. So I searched indirectly like searching on the word stock in the Power FC forum etc. Nothing came back.

 

probably because nobody wants to spend 1k on an new ecu on an otherwise stock car...be the first, and let us know

 

ttb is that Avril in your avatar?

 

If it isn't Avril then it's somebody who looks *exactly* like her. I mean exactly like her. Exactly.

 

yup, avril....pretty cute chick, i like that alternative skater look on some girls...

 

I think it would be a great idea to put the PFC on a stock car, but you have to get beyond just gaining HP. All the monitoring features alone would be worth it, not to mention getting rid of the 3k hesitation, and the potential for logging (with Datalogit). If you have the money and time to learn as you go, adding a mod here and there and tweaking your maps along the way with a dyno or wideband, you would gain tons of knowledge over time.

Be a pioneer! But be careful.
