Default Got my ecu back!!


I got my IPD Ecu today and popped it in.
Installed a Hallman MBC w/ the thick AS* vacuum hose from viva.

all I have to say is HOLY SH*T ***** BATMAN.. 14 PSI like nothing...
Talk about fun!!

Due to the miles on my motor I decided to tune back the MBC to 11-12 PSI Just to be safe, and until I get the smoking to stop.

But otherwise, Its totally worth the Extra cash.... DO IT!!

Are you talking about Lucky? I was wondering where he went. BTW Matty, congrats on the nice upgrade you got. You just might get a speeding ticket having all that fun.

I found out he left right after I sent it in.... LOL I was thinking the same thing...
and on top of that, The ECU's are on sale now.

Dis-regard that... I looked at My Bank statement online, They gave it to me for the sale price... WOO HOO... I have more money than I thought now!!

Good to know. I'll have to take a look-see at that site. Kudos on getting that bonus savings and on knowing the right people. Just try to keep at least 2 wheels on the ground while you're speeding around town. I look forward to the time when I can get my tune.

I was told he would be doing tuning, but I didnt think he was giving that many options.

Looks good, lot's of options available and a better price. I wonder if anyone here has got a tune from that company yet. Knowing who's doing the tune is certainly a positive. Thanks for the link!

ARD lists several tunes. How does one change the intake and exhaust timing? Any BTDT?
