1. Motec

2. HKS (FCON series)

3. Autronic

4. Haltech

5. Apexi (Power FC)

- Matspeed J5

which is the cheapest and best?:p

 

[Torment]

which has best resolution at resonable cost?

One more local ECU : Uncle Leow's ECU

SMT,SAFC,E-Manage is NOT a standalone EMS, they're still piggybacks.

Which EMS is best?

1. EMS that is easy to setup and tune
2. EMS that has all functions that u need
3. EMS that doesn't has functions u never need
4. EMS that can do datalogging

U don't need EMS until ur current stock ECU / piggyback can no longer cater ur need. Things like camshaft (not the racing one) and exhaust mod actually don't need standalone ECU. Only when u're going for extreme eg quad throttle bodies, racing camshaft, increase turbo boost to over 1.5 bar and turbocharging stock ECU, EMS is necessary.

Some stock ECUs are actually programmable eg 4G93 ECU, that's where remapping/rechipping comes in eg Drax/J5. For 4G13/15 owners, sorry to say, it's not programmable, even using SAFC won't be able to remove its 6500RPM rev cut

Taqu,
Let's say if I want to convert my VR4 from MAF to mapping? Do I need to use EMS or a piggyback will do? Or even a SAFC?

Convert MAF to MAP?

1st and budget option, HKS Vein Pressure Converter (VPC). Alot of Buschur Racing (US based 4G63 pro-tuner) car using. But I think difficult to find one.

2nd best option, call MILLENNIUM MOTORSPORTS. I think they carry an affordable piggyback that allows MAF to MAP and fuel adustment as well.

3rd option is to go Stand Alone EMS.

whats the diffenrent between maf and map?

 

[Joeker]

MAF meters the air flow. The cumbersome sensor restricts airflow at the intake.

MAP meters air pressure. No restrictive sensor.

In case of MAP-ed turbo cars, u can hear the spooling sound of turbo...LOUD!!!! ;)

 

[MK84]

These two are US-made ECUs that I know of.

Electromotive (TEC series ecu, currently latest is TEC3 I think)
Hydra (Nemesis)

 

[SiGNAL]

I'm not sure how true it is but some reckons turbos run best with MAF?

Not sure bout other ECUs but PFC has DJetro version that lets u run on MAP.

Some other EMS i can think of..

- Links Management System (from NZ)

- Tomei Reytec

Freedom ECU

 

[CcL]

like cipan said
megasquirt...
logo like hotwheels one. damn cheap. RM1k but gotto DIY solder ther components la.
