Jellybean Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Is anybody in the UK running a PROEFI ECU yet? Very popular choice State Side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Most of the big boys run this in the states....are there even any dealers here!? Without someone to map the ECU in the UK it's pointless getting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without someone to map the ECU in the UK it's pointless getting one. I didn't see anybody in the EU on the dealer list but looking at the mapping tutorial Larry (soundPerformance) posted, the software looks fairly easy to use I would nearly go as far to say, after a bit of reading/research I would be confident to give it a go Marty over here should be using one on his 2UR-GSE V8 Supra Edited April 17, 2013 by Jellybean (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I suppose it could be mapped remotely via the Internet if that facility is in place, but I'd have to question getting this over a Syvecs given that the Syvecs has an infrastructure in place within the UK.

That is true but it still looks like a nice bit of kit! Just wondered if anybody did bite the bullet and get one! Just looking through accessories and features of both ECU's, not too sure who was playing catch up with who; they both have external CAN displays: ProEFI Color CAN Display v2/ Syvecs Toucan Display etc very similar in design Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Bieber Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Don't know if you've seen this thread on supraforums but from the sounds of it the syvecs pretty much matches the pro efi: http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?662725-Syvecs-pectel&highlight=syvecs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Bieber Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Also do you have an lsd?? The pro efi traction control is controlled from one wheel only, so its something else to consider if you wanted that feature and have a stock torsen diff. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?691930-Traction-Control-(ProEFI)-vs-TRD-LSD-vs-Big-Tire-Set-Up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is trying to run a 800+ hp drag car with a stock diff, yeah the ECU is the problem ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Bieber Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Ha true, but its still an interesting point if true on the pro efi's traction control setup, I don't know how the syvecs traction control works but its something to consider.

They could recommission Roadrunner and have it run the traction control on that car but I don't think it will make any difference with 800 horses on a stock differential Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
