    You'll need to use one of the latest versions of the firmware for use with the stock multiplex ignitor. Send me an email at support@ecumasterusa.com and I'll provide you with a base map. Thanks!

    So many options to choose from. MS3? Haltech? AEM? Something else?

    It can be a little bulky if you use the plug and play adapter, but the EMU itself is pretty compact. We sell a flying lead harness for $110 which is a great starting point if you want to rewire it, at which point it doesn't take up any more space than the stock ECU. Plus, the connectors and pins...

    Autotune is solid. Tuning will never be 100% automatic, you'll need to do some smoothing and build out areas of the map that you didn't hit while logging, but it's an incredibly handy tool.

    Why on earth would you give more money to AEM after their product killed your last motor?

    Opinions on holley HP

    No need to reinvent the wheel adapting stuff designed for a domestic application. You'd likely have to replace your factory idle control motor and a whole host of other sensors, there are plenty of ECUs on the market that will retain all your factory equipment, the EMU being one of them. We...

    standalone fuel?

    Some factory ECUs impose the rev limit by cutting fuel, not ignition. In that case, driving the injectors from a piggyback would allow you to raise your rev limit. So yes, the signal to the injectors can be related to your rev limit.

    So many options to choose from. MS3? Haltech? AEM? Something else?

    Please don't group us in with MS :) Yes, the ECU is budget friendly, but it's a professional product and comes with full support and a 24 month warranty. The software is extremely straightforward and we've got an active and growing community of users and tuners throughout the country. No other...

    standalone fuel?

    The DET3 is capable of driving up to 8 injectors directly (up to 4 per output channel). Most customers just use the DET3 to modify the MAF or MAP sensor signal, as you have to start from scratch building a fuel map when using the DET3 in "fuel implant" mode. If your factory rev limiter is fuel...

    AEM v2 pnp or MS3 pro

    Take a look at the ECUMaster EMU. If you look at what's included it's a better value than the MS3 Pro. We give you a wideband and a built-in 4 bar MAP sensor and connectors and pins for $1200. If you want a flying lead harness that's just an additional $110. I speak with professional tuners on a...

    ECUMaster DET3 Install Video, 89 Supra with 2JZ NA-T on 7M Electronics

    Not sure where you got the $1600 figure, maybe some of our package deals from black friday that had a bunch of sensors and optional parts added in? Pricing information is on our site, www.ecumasterusa.com. Our piggyback, the DET3 that's featured in this video, starts at $420. Our standalone...

    Processing power has virtually nothing to do with it, an engine at 9000 rpm may as well be standing still compared to any modern processor. Fast processor speeds make for good marketing bullet points, but it has no direct correlation to performance. Here are the biggest factors in terms of idle...

    Ask your tuning questions here; open discussion thread on engine tuning.

    There's very rarely a free lunch when it comes to increasing power output. Going with more aggressive cams will typically improve breathing at high RPM, but usually at the expense of efficiency down low. Your car simply isn't moving the same amount of air at low load/RPM as it did with stock...

    We finished our first Chumpcar race(s)!!

    Congrats on finishing both days, that's an accomplishment! We run an 86.5 in Chumpcar races here in Texas, and we're dumb enough that we're gearing up for a 37 hour race at Eagles Canyon raceway in a few weeks. In terms of weight reduction, go for the low hanging fruit. You don't need a...

    Ask your tuning questions here; open discussion thread on engine tuning.

    As the title says, I'd like to open up a discussion on engine tuning with a piggyback or standalone ECU. Feel free to post up any questions you have and I'll do my best to answer them here. We're gearing up for a video series covering various tuning topics, so any questions that are asked here...

    Tuning question

    The only way to correct for that is with a piggyback that converts to speed density and eliminates the MAF. The ECUMaster DET3 does this, and allows for boost control, timing control, launch control, map switching, etc. and is around the same price point as the Neo. We've had several 7M...

    ECUMaster/VVTi/DBW/6766/ID1300/Forged 3.0/CCW/Mickey Thompson Nonsense

    Toyota thought it was a good move to go JZ, that's the only endorsement I need :) It's an LS3 throttle body from a 2010 corvette with a corvette pedal being controlled by the optional DBW module for the ECUMaster EMU standalone. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask and I can...

    ECUMaster/VVTi/DBW/6766/ID1300/Forged 3.0/CCW/Mickey Thompson Nonsense

    Yes Haven't run it on the new tires, and it hasn't seen a track in quite a while, more of a street bruiser than anything but I'd like to run some times in the near future. My current block is an IS300 block, so the oil port is there on both motors, I'm just not using it on the current motor...
