TS v JWT ECU
I now have both of these ECU's for my 96SE 5-speed...which one to use/which one to sell?? I could just plug each one in and play "seat of pants" evaluation, but I don't think one will be any "feel" difference than the other. Please, correct me if you have actually experienced significant difference between the two on the same car!! Does anybody have any real hard data differences on the re-programs that each of these two ECU's actually are set for? For example: does one use a more aggressive timing advance, different fuel map, power curve configurations, etc. Or are they basically the same re-program? The obvious advantage to the JWT unit is the extended 7.2K RPM; it is my understanding that the TS will go to about 6800 with my 5speed SE package. Again, please correct me if I am misinformed! I'd just like to use the one that best suits my application since I'm not looking to race the car, drive mostly in mid-ranges, use 89 octane(spare me the "flames', please ) and won't mod it further (only install my MEVI unit someday )...even then the car will rarely/if ever see 7K. I appreciate any hard data input that anyone might have!! Thank You, Doug

From what I've heard the JWT is good especially if used in combination with the MEVI, so I would assume it depends on what you want to do in the future. If you wanna sell the JWT though, lemme know.

You've already answered your own question. JWT 72k rpm, TS 68krpm.
JWT Mevi Program, TS none.
I have the JWT with 72k, ttz maf, fuel pump, 555cc and MEVI program with a custom turbo for 2 years now. Great idle a/f @ idle 14.7.
So if there is any doubt, JWT all the way.

Try them both (one at a time). If you can't tell any difference and are indifferent about which you keep, put them both up for bid and sell the one that gets the highest bid. Sounds like a plan???

I guess I was given the wrong info on the TS which said it would pull all the way to stock RPM(6.8K with manual SE??) and higher with Harlan type extender. Really just wondered most about advance curves, fuel maps differences (if any significant) between the two. Great input from y'all. I appreciate it!! Doug

There was a post a while ago comparing the dyno maps on both. The TS was a bit more agressive and the curves were slightly different under similar N/A USIM. But overall it was only a couple hp/tq either way.

(no need [yet] for 91!). The car runs great on 87 but I just switched to 89 as prices dropped;the car runs beautifully and gets identical MPG with both, but 89 is a choice with either ECU with potential to up it to 91 (IF) I experience any octane/detonation problems caused by reprogrammed timing and fuel maps. Thanks to all!!! Doug

I'll go out on a limb and say TS could reflash to anything JWT could do. TS might not be able to add hardware to activate a MEVI but if you set the mevi to xxxx rpm and run a dyno, TS could reflash to accomodate for the extra airflow
