Middle- and Longterm Experience with ECUTEK
Middle- and Longterm Experience with ECUTEK
Hi
EcuTek seems to be a great product and the owners of 'ecutekked' Evo's are happy.
But..
...does anybody have middle- or longterm experience with EcuTek?
(middle- &longterm reference to mileage (>35'000 miles))
...does anybody have experience about the qualities on trackdays?
(additional heat build-up, oil temperature and so far..)
There can be problems with a stock engine as well, I absolutly know that.
But more boost means also more mechanical load.
I'm talking about moderate Modifications, for example:
- Ecutek (max. 23psi)
- Exhaust System
- Air filter
- Fuel pump
Thank you

I have been running a ecutek tune for 20k and have no complaints. When I started running alky I did have to switch to a mbc to run the boost I wanted. Like Al said It's all about the tuner.

My Subaru which trapped at 106 with a Unichip had an Ecutek tune at ~30K, dyno-tuned by Shiv twice (with boost flutter) and then road-tuned by Dave at Rallispec. I now have 93K, the same trap, much smoother and quicker partial-throttle and full-throttle response than with the Unichip, and no CELs. (I also had CELs after each Shiv dyno-tune.) Ecutek works for me. But the whole time, I wish I had more boost at launch.
