so i was doing alot of reading and whatnot and picked up a MEVI a couple days ago. wanted JWT ecu of course but dont want to wait forever. I have a 95 auto ECU ill be using so ill be sending that to technosquare tomorrow after work. i asked for a 7100rpm rev limit if possable. i included the MEVI in my list of mods and i know they use a differnt a/f map for MEVI customers. My questions, sense some of the ecus that they do, the rev limits dont increase even if they do it. i wont be using the MEVI in that case and wont want my a/f all screwed up. does anyone know if its a big change they do and if the raised limit doesnt work on my car if i use USIM will i still be running as fast or too rich? thanks -Ryan

 

I wasnt aware Technosquare had an MEVI program.
Last I heard, They hadnt figured out just which ecu's they could raise the limiter on, just certain autos.
If they do raise the limiter, it will still work with the USDM but you will not see any gains since the USDM does not build any power above 6500

 

yea in an older post cheston said that they have a differnt a/f map that they use for if you have a MEVI and can only raise rev limits on the auto ECU's which i do have. although im just saying sense somtimes the raised limit doesnt work for some reason, and if that is the case then ill be using the USIM insted and dont want to have it run like crap because its mapped out for a MEVI -Ryan

 

I remember Cheston saying they did have a differnt program, which was the one he was running which a a bit more aggressive timing but i dont think it was created simply for the MEVI.
I know the JWT program isnt different for the MEVI, it just has the raised limiter.
I wouldnt think it would run badly if you werent using the MEVI. Many have run with it and not had the MEVI.

 

there is no such thing as a mevi program there is a raised rev limiter but if you want to call that a mevi program then I guess you could

 

whats this then... http://forums.maxima.org/showpost.ph...6&postcount=82

theres sevral others i can find if you like, i wouldnt ask this question if i didnt know if it exsists...

 

Ive read that as well, but the differences were never provided.
Some asked about the differences with the A/F but no variances were provided.

 

I would try to get a solid answer that they can or cannot raise the rev limiter on your ecu.

 

call Technosquare and make sure they can do it b4 you send it. i just checked out the TS website and it doesnt say anything about an rev limiter raise.

Maxima 1995-1996 VQ30DE FUEL,IG $595
Maxima 2002-2003 VQ35DE FUEL,IG,REV,SPD,VTC MAXFLASH $495


Above shows that all they can do with the 95-96 is a different AF map and whatever IG is (ignition timing?) The 2002 can have AF, IG, the limiter raised, speed limiter removed, and VTC?

just call b4 you go sending it away then when you get it back the limiter isnt raised. let us know too

 

and sean i got ya this thursday for those you know whats if you still have those you know who's

 

lol you lost me? u got me this thursday?

 

yeah for the shocks and struts and springs mannnnn. just send me you paypal addy ....opps this is the wrong place for this..

 

well found out they can do it but cannot garentee me that it will actually work on my 97... :\ so i just sent it out anyways because i figure if it works then AWSOME, if not then ill have to stick with USIM until i can pick up a JWT. some of you may think that idea is stupid but i would really rather not wait for my ecu to come back from JWT for 5 weeks only to install it once the local track is closed. -Ryan

 

ts does not have the extended rev and they don't plan on working it out. I have been talking to brain@ts and this was the last thing he told me. DOn't know about the mevi program though.

 

Either way, the ecu upgrade is a great mod. I drove with the G Force ecu with the rev limter on it and was still very happy with it.
The gains in the low end are much better then the stock ecu.

 

some have had to wait 13 weeks

 

see wayyyy to long for my liking...wow why do they suck so bad if there such a big time company?

 

I dont know why they have such a bad turn around time, Its just plan sad, and bad business. Sadly they may know that they are pretty much the only one who does ecu tunning with rev limiter and special requst, so they take as long as they want.

I hope someone finds another way to lift the rev limiter, then we'll never need to go JWT again.

 

dont settle for less man that 7200 is a killer. every thing is better than the stock ecu even an intake,or a oil change.... . but you do what you wanna do and waste what you wanna waste just don't come next to me in yo ish reving your engine cause i will smile on the other side of my tint and own you...... like bijane did whatchamacallit's name on that vid oh yeah bruce.

 

if his mevi opens propely (unlike Bruce's at the time) say hello to the back of his tail lights unless you have a mevi or 00vi.

 

lol that was a good one. and either way i already sent my ECU in to TS today overnight shipping so we'll see what happens when i get the thing back if its raised up or still chillin and that will make my mind up on any intake manifold for this drag season at least

 

well laylow your only in PA, ill install the MEVI and TS ecu and take a trip so we can go at it and see what happens

 

I now have the JWT, unfortunatly i went ith the 7k, I should have gotten the 7.2

 

Only if he gets the raised rev limiter, other wise mevi opening to 7.2k is pointless.

 

so were they able to raise the rev limit for you joosdawg?

 

yes actually they did 7100 baby!! one problem is that sense i lost my job i have had the MEVI for sale and no longer need the extended limit... o well ill wind up with another MEVI or 00vi somtime soon btw they charged me $645 for it not $595 like it says on the site...
-Ryan

 

Be4 i get a modded ecu is the best thing to get the most gains from a mevi to put a switch in to turn the rev limiter on or off? or is this not possible.

 

nice man.. i just bought deezos so im excited. I guess if you just hassle TS and drop them another $50 bux they will do it.

 

I e-mailed TS a while ago about extendng the rev limiter, and they said that only a few autos, not manuals could be upgraded for the extended rev limit. Only if the would find a damn way, would really work well with my TS ECU and 00VI.

 

just use an auto ecu like joos :P

 

exacly man thats exacly why i used an auto ecu because i knew thats the only ones that worked and its great!! blazingchimp- im happy for ya already lol once you put that sucker in your deff in for a treat and you should be able to feel it right away trust me
-Ryan

 

It's only a few auto ECUs that will work, thats what TS says

 

doesnt really make sense but all you can do is track it and the day they get it call them twice a day. they do have a really annoying receptionist that asks a million questions and then dumps you on Brian without telling him anything but still lol
-Ryan

 

It's weird how only a few autos ECUs will work, sounds like BS to me, probably because they are almost out of daughterboards.

 

Your getting confused with the speed limiter. The rev limiter cannot be turned on and off with a switch.

 

im mevi-charged so i'm not worrying about his taillights . and my car is always in race mode with nothing more than afew pieces of paper and cd's in the car at all times. unfortunitly i still have starting problems so i parked the 5 speed for a while. might just keep it parked until winters over.

 

i was supposed to have one of those extended rev on an auto. and this was like a year ago. I think i might have to send mine back in. Which year ecus did you guys use for the TS extended rev?

 

joosdawg please check your pm i got a question for you.
