Dealers will not know that you have had the ECU reprogrammed.

 

Altima 3.5 dyno results.

great

 

Any chancee of us getting a GD with this? If so I am in

 

Here is a link to the video footage of the 7000+ RPM tach limit increase. I remind you that this is from the auto ECU, which is now available for purchase as well.

cool man!!! but it is not bad for the tranny to shift "1" on 7000+ rpms, "2" on 7000+ rpm?? because the book that came with my car it says that "1 until 35 mph, 2 until 65 mph" so if you go more than 35 mph on 1 or more than 65 mph on 2 it is bad or not? let me know...

 

That's just a guideline to prevent you from hitting the rev limiter and whatnot.

Since the redline is increased, then you now have the ability to hit higher rpms.

Additionally, say you didn't get your redline increased it's still not bad. For lack of a better illustration let me put it this way:

Stock Form, Base power, 6500rpm: 255hp
1st gear tops out at 35mph

Modified Form, 6500rpm, HP Adder (e.g. Turbo for example): 320hp
1st gear tops out at 42mph

At the same rpm, you hit higher speeds. So that alone will tell you that the guidelines in the book isn't really set in stone.

Again, that's just an example. But hopefully you get the idea

 

What? How is the car going to go faster at the same RPMs? Unless the gearing changed that's impossible.

 

Yeah that doesnt make sense to me either. Its not a matter of power. You will top out at 35mph whether you are at 120hp or 600hp. There is a set amount of mph per 1000rpm and it is a linear graph. The only way you could change the maximum speed in a gear without physically changing the ratios is to increase the maximum rpm attained.

 

It is good good for the tranny?

 

Now all I need is a video showing where the ECU is located on my '03 and the steps needed to get it out to send to TS

 

I could use a little help with that also. And I'm also going to have to figure out what to tell the wife when the car won't run for 3 days.

 

you 5th gens are lucky to have this mod. Hey cheston did this ever go through for the 6th gen, If so I would be very interested. Let us know...

 

Its near the gas pedal, to the right...buried in there somewere

 

i think its fine

 

there are detailed instructions...it's on the passenger side and you have to remove part of the dash.

this is for the 350z and I believe someone said it's the same for a maxima

Hmm... i'm not sure if i may have explained myself clearly. So let me clarify if i can - and please correct me if i'm wrong in my understanding.

Isn't the reason that stock vehicles, when given power adders like S/C and Turbo's - trap higher at the quarter mile, being in the same gear (not necessarily the same rpm) just because more power was added?

 

Yes they trap higher becuase they are able to reach a higher rpm in the same gear, unless they have to shift one more time becuase of the added power.

For example if I add an intake, headers, and ECU most likely I will be trapping at a higher speed. Instead of trapping at 95.0 I would trap at about 98 or 99 becuase the extra power allows my car to accelerate faster in the 1/4 mile and thus enable it to reach a higher speed before the end. At 95mph (I am not sure of the exact numbers but this is assuming 120 is the top speed in 4th gear at 6500rpm) I would be at 5146rpm. At 99mph I would be at 5363rpm. Yes I trapped higher in the quarter becuase of the extra power but my speed limit in 4th gear will ALWAY BE 120mph @6500rpm. If you trap over 120mph then you will have to shift into 5th gear.

 

That sounds sweeeet. I have an auto also, I noticed you manually shifting 1-2-3... it sounded to me like it took a long time to shift to the next gear, even after you shifted up. Is this normal??? Mine shifts similar... it seems to shift slowly at WOT. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Again your car sounds real nice.

 

do you have to manually shift to reach 7000+?

 

Of course~!

 

well isn't that ghey. No more manually shifting when I need it....rev limiter is not good with NAWZZZ

 

Fock that car sounds AWESOME!!!!

I want that!!!!!!!

 

You could always get a MSD window switch or simply use a shift light, so the extra RPM are just an added safety margin.

The TS ECU is still worthwhile when you're off the bottle PLUS you're A/F ratio AND timing would be "safer" on the NAAAAWZ.

 

In lieu of reading the whole.....16 pages.

Is there one for the 6speeds yet?
and
Is it dyno proven yet??
oh yeah
how much??
















Thanks
lazy

 

Yes.
Yes...not independently though.
$495.

People better start ordering these....so I can get mine on the R&D list.

 

Thanks dude.

What were the dyno numbers??

 

WTF...do I look like 411? LOL!

At LEAST read the FIRST page.

 

ummmm no..i mean yes.....I mean no.


Ok...I'll go

 

Just BUY it!

However, make sure you get a before/after dyno though.

I would buy this in a HEART BEAT if I had a 2K2+. You guys are nutz not jumping on it.

 

the 6th Gen's are 'in limbo'

i do not believe Technos ever got a tester for their ECU...

looks like 6gens dont want any goodies ;P

 

I've checked out their website and I haven't figured out anything yet. Can someone just post a new thread that has all the details as far as actually getting one of these puppies? I'm willing to throw the cash at it, but I haven't seen any actual part #.

Basically, remove it and ship it with your name/contact number to:

TECHNOSQUARE, Inc.
22521 S.Normandie Ave.,
Torrance, CA 90501

Apparently, they call you for payment info or you can contact them at:
TEL (310) 787-0847
FAX (310) 787-0948

Anything else you'd like to know, just call. That's pretty much it.

BTW, I'd put a piece of tape across the front of the ECU with the car info, ie year/make/model/trans type, just to minimize any chance for confusion or mix-up.

 

looks like a good mod here. looks like this will be my next addition in the spring, when i get money again. thanks to those who took the initiative

 

The reason it shifted so slow from 1-2 was because i hit the rev limiter before shifting, causing the ECU to retard the timing for a split second, in that time, the tranny shifted and the engine hit a soft spot due to the retardation in the timing. You will notice that it did not happen on the 2-3 change cause I didnt hit the limiter. Another note is that I have one or more bad plugs, we noticed the car "dropping the nose" at 5000-5300 on the dyno before we sent the ECU in, and it still somewhat does it. When I get them changed, the car will be a true beast.

To those who like the sound, that is an INJEN CAI and a Powertech 1012 combination. It drones a bit, but sounds perfect IMO. PM me with any Questions.

 

there is one for the 6 speed and there is a independent dyno. it dynoed at 224 with intake and muffler. thats its and ecu. so it helps you can go to there website and there is a syno chart

 

sorry if I missed it but what were your numbers before the ecu?

 

Where? Post it up man!

 

just got an email from danny...

the offical launch of the website for the Automagics (and the altimas) will be Dec 1st.

if you guys have 6gen friends and wanna show the love.. tell them to help out!!




Thanks for your positive support guys! I know the Technosquare guys are truly happy that they can fill the void and help make your cars (and mine) faster and tuned

I love mikes car, been in it a couple times, wish i had it, lol
perfect sound
