MAP ECU and MAP ECU II

[guards_man79]

who's running either one of these and how do you like them? Or does anyone know about them?

i installed a map-ecu2 on a MKIV. the plug and play harness made the install sooo simple, to the point where the hardest part was getting a VAC line from the engine bay to the map-ecu2 unit. the tuning side of things is nice, they really made a great program that is easy to learn and use. if you go with either unit, i would not run a serial->usb adapter as they dont work at all. get a PCMCIA serial card.

I run the map ecu, love it, tuning is super easy (this is the first tuning attempt in my life), installation was easy, now its cheap (i was one of the first 5 that bought it and paid full msrp of $750 back then, now you can get them for about $350). I am seriously thinking about getting the map ecu II because it has timing and boost control. but waiting on my engine to be completely done before thinking about upgrading something that is sufficient for now.
