A whole grand? well, I'll have to think about it Actually, no way am I getting rid of my ZX. While the EVO handles better, it still cant run the Z on the freeway, and the Z is prettier. check out www.trinituner.com go to the showcase to March 2001 and check out PearlZ.

Trini7,

don't set your boost over 1.3-1.4 bar. The mines ecu cannot accomodate anything more. Also, when running high boost monitor your exhaust temp. If you are running stock exhaust, temp. can climb very high (more than 1000C).

Thinking of replacing my mines ecu with autronic, ALS would be nice.

Any1 ever study the whole Autronic setup... they have a "auto tuner"... which would be such a good piece....

I have looked into this also. There is one concern about the Autronics unit. It can control both the A/C and AYC. you have to choose, according to the, you put in a relay to control A/C. I also heard the Motec offers a auto-tune feature. We(E.I. first five cars) are getting the Gems unit. Well maybe, if we ever get our cars!!!!

Hope this helps.

Trini7: Didn't you encounter a problem with the immobilizer when you changed the ECU? I guess Mine's had that figured out already because for Motec and Apex'i Power FC, the car won't start.

I guess the Mine's VX Rom had a big difference huh?
