i ask my mech...they dun recommend jap ecu....they said u spent few thousand but wat u get is only few hp's....like 5-8 hp's.... he said PS can tune by ownself coz this PS dun need laptop or watsoever....u can tune the PS coz got button thingi...so i need more advice from sifu
from this statement i already do get it that your mech nor you know what your talking about , a standalone or a piggyback is used to tune your air fuel ratio , a piggyback alters and tricks standard ecu & Maf/Map while a standalone has its own software and mappings
a haltech e8 has 32X32 fuel & ignition mappings , air temp compensations , o2 wideband closed loop , you could even stuff in a 1000cc injector on your car without worry , a motec will have a even bigger feature and higher processor speed
wanna know the real spec of power sport ? it has most to most 24 points of fuel mapping and there is more features NOT! :P , no ignition mapping , no closed loop capabilities with air temp nor wideband , haltech has 1024 tuning points while powersport has 24 points at most ? i told u its like comparing pasar malam with bukit bintang , if your mech claims power sport is even better than haltech, BULLSHIT and he is just messing with you , u try fitting a large injector , i bet the powersport cant compensate no more , powersport has no nos control , no launch control , no auxilary and etc , it other words , powersport will not even beat the rm800 emanage blue , even the emanage has 256 points of mapping
in conclusion , ur mech doesnt know what he is talking about or he is jst making money , its just business :)
more tuning points gives the tuner more work , he said you can tune urself , yeaps only to a certain limit , do you have wideband logging or monitoring system
its not about japs or whites , its the tuner that makes the car fly and also the available hardware
u put two cars identical
lets say evo , with a gt35r ball bearing turbo , tuning the car for 2bar
you can only dream for the ps powersport to be able to tune that car , the same tuner given a haltech for the other car , this car can be pushed to its max limit , and of cos the haltech car will give the ps powersports a few tiangs , or errr the ps powersport car might not even be moving
