They have had my ECU for about a month now and I get a call today from Jim. "We have tested it on our similator and our test car and it runs perfect no MAF code or anything that you described."

He said their test car idled right and ran fine. When I tried running the ECU it pulled a MAF code, the manifold vacumn pressure was at 0.30, it wasn't giving any 02 sensor readings and the timing was all over the place.

I throw in the stock ECU and the 02 sensors are reading correct, the manifold absolute pressure is at 14.2hg's and although its rich the car runs pretty d@mn good.

Interesting....I told them to send me the ECU back and I will be going to Nisstech and getting a tech to call them and give them the readings from a consult for both the JWT POS ECU and my stock ECU that is running like a champ. Since Jim knows everything hopefully they can come to some conclusion that either their program sucks or my ECU is trashed.

The funny thing is the JWT is an Automatic ECU so it throws a code 24/7 but Jim didn't even know that. He said it shouldn't throw and code since the JWT ECU is programed for a 5 speed. He had to go ask the tech bc he didnt believe me, and guess who was right. I will be filing a claim if this **** doesn't get resolved soon and I will not keep my cool next time I talk to him if he starts getting insulting.

Has technosquare figured out how to raise the rev limitor for a 5 speed car yet?

Man, that sucks Matt.

Which injectors are you running? Deatschwerks? Pink or Red Tops?

 

Deatschwerks red tip 612cc

 

Everything should be fine then. Have you adjusted fuel pressure to use with the stock ecu?

 

yeah, my friend has a jwt ecu, his setup's fine. Mike with the turbo i30t also had problems with his jim wolf ecu. Curious...

 

mike had problesmw with his ecu because he was using the wrong injectors

 

yes I even had it on the dyno and it was super rich. The only problem I have with the stock ECU is it stumbling sometime when I shift bc of the injector not being controled by anything. Right now I just want the d@mn raised rev limit which helps out SC cars big time when each gear shifts higher into boost. Guess I will see where it goes once I get all the consult data with each ECU.

 

There has been a handfull of people with jwt problems though.

 

Mikes ECU is a POS also, it might run but no way should he be losing 6-7mph at the track just from swapping out the ECU's. Basically hes losing approx 60-70whp just from putting the JWT ECU in from what the stock ECU gives him.

 

i was under the impression taht he lost so much hp due to a leak in his intercooler and a coupler?

 

Noooo... he was losing power overall with THAT problem. Didn't have anything to do with which ECU he had in. He loses about 60-80whp with the JWT ECU.

 

I have no problems with my ecu (JWT 7.2k,555cc,z32maf,cams,9:1 comp,boost setup) and im still running stock 3.0. I ran a 13.1 @105.7 with a 2.1 60'.

 

how much boost, im hoping only like 5psi for that trap. I honestly think my ECU is dead but I also don't want to lose a crap load of power like Mike does with his JWT installed.

-Edit Blu

 

12psi with blow by and a knocking bottomend

 

105mph @ 12 psi is not good. My car runs really well with the JWT ECU as far as idle and starting. 12 psi on a VQ30 tuned right should yield upwards of 400-425 hp. Of course set up and turbo size have alot to do with peak power, but in general 12psi is good for over 400hp

 

I have, had plenty of power till it went down hill on my way too track. It started missing and smoking...then it cleared up, but never seemed too be right again after that.
