how does this sound (ECU PRICE)
me and my dyno shop are looking to sell these ecu for a cheaper price, like 380..
I want to know who will be interested in this price, not going to be sold on this site, I'm just looking for interest, if there is we can start it up, we need at least 30 cars to do it and I'll get back to him on it. we will be working on it asap, but it might take a few to get it started..
just to give ya'll a run through, I have gained 17hp and 10tq so far with more to come, I'm still tuning it..
NOT JUST 6th gens on this, we can do all nissans maximas, altimas, all the way to sentra's SER's ect ect, infiniti's, FX35/45, pretty much all our cars and alittle more..

the reason for the interest is to cover the cost of the program, after that is profits, you know business stuff, it has to look good for him.

you know me Chris, if I could help out I will, since we are short on mods and some are just overpriced, I'm willing to help for sure..
I mentioned it to my dyno and he told me to get some interest so here I am. 380 is not bad at all. the east cost people can even go there and tune it on the dyno if he gets it.
once we get my numbers we can do all 6thgens with them, but I need you guys to make it happen..
this is not the only thing we are working on, Gec has alot to offer also, some great work is being put into this, this is not simple, we have shops, people with knowledge and all working with us to make this happen.

I'm most likely in when you have yours "perfectly tuned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
And i'm likin both the numbers like the other guy said, and your sayin that it's not "perfectly tuned", and those are still pretty nice numbers! So those numbers still may go up a little? O ya, how long would the "tuning proccess" take, as in shipping and tuning and receiving? THANKS
Dan

I also have my dyno shop trying to get in touch with TS to get info from them to finish mines up, but power is still there to be released..
I have alot of fuel being dumped in into the engine as well, is just not enough yet, compare to you, I have no clue.. get it dynoed and send me a run file of your best run..

How would you go about updates down the line? Let's say adjustments are needed or found that boost performance up some... would we get them for free if we just ship the ECU or something?
What else is needed for this? Dyno, list of bolt-ons, etc? How long would the whole thing take if people drive up?

the info on the upgrade stuff is what I will get into once we are set. infact I'll call my shop on moday and get all this stuff for you guys..
you don't need anything cause I'm your test car for this, I have no mods right now till after I get tuned right..

shipping orders I still have to work out with the shop, cause it cost about 50 bucks to overnight it to Cali, not sure else where.
who will pay it is still on the works, for update program, in the works.
I don't have all details though, the small info questions will be unanswered, if we get the people then we can build a plan.

we have 20 more, but if we can get another 10 or so just off this site alone I can start talking numbers with the dyno shop.
I'm sure we can get more on other sites like the sentra site and 4th/5th gens ect ect..
let do it!!

How is it going to be tuned without other mods in? I'm not talking about exhaust or intakes, but major mods, like headers and cams or FI.

it will be like TS, send it back with a dyno sheet and get it reprogramed (add fuel)..

Chris, it does. with mods on the car you just need more fuel in the program just like any other mods, this ecu will work with any bolt on.
bolt on mods just lean the car out, causing it to need fuel. that can be fixed easy.

Has anybody seen the infamous "throttling" that the ECU supposedly performs when the MAF tells it that there's extra air coming in from a new intake? And if so, can this be removed?
The word around here is that the ECU needs to be reset because the MAF keeps telling it about the extra air flow... through your dealings with this whole ECU business, has that come up at all? Is there an option to remove it, something like that?

This is true to an extent even when you reprogram your ECU (throttle opens 100%, rev limiter raised, speed limiter removed, more agressive mapping, etc.), but it goes back to how it's reprogrammed. So depending on what mod you add, it may be necessary to reflashed again to reflect the mod.

I would be in provided I had the right answer to my concerns.
Does it turn of Check engine lights from exhaust mods (i.e. if headers came out, the removal of the precats would trigger a code) most aftermarket ECU's disable that code.
Is the transmission operation affected (auto). I would like a slightly higher redline (or shift point) and the ability to control shifting up to that point with the manumatic. Right now the manumatic won't let me past 6300.
Will a dealer know you did this mod and/or be able to reflash/erase the programming?
WIll my ECU need to be shipped for programming or am I buying a new ECU? I can't afford any downtime so even a core program would be great.
And finally, I'd just like to see the final dyno numbers. $380 is a great price IMO and I'd probably be in.
Edit, some info on Technosquares site:
Maxima tune: FUEL,IG,REV,SPD,VTC
Legend
FUEL: Fuel Map
IG: Ignition Timing Map
SPD: Speed Limiter
REV: Rev limiter
BL: Boost Limiter
BC: Boost Control
VTC: Variable Timing Control
