Guest Sausage Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 How far can you go with this ecu J spec I've a full 3" turbo back. 1.2bar Blitz filter Mines a/t ecu It's pritty quick but what else can be done Bigger Injectors bigger single turbo What cams how much boost will the ecu alow safe etc etc Just I can't find a proper answer to what the ecu has or hasn't got Read it can run 540cc injectors but is that true with out over furling or bore wash? Where is the boost limit? Did try over boost it once and it just misfired and black smoked is the fuel cut mild or is it like hitting a brick wall like in the gt4's?

tony tt Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Is a mines ecu not locked? As in it has a higher rev limit and the feueling is advanced slightly but I think that's it. Email mines with serial number on it and they will tell you what's done to it. If it's a locked mines you won't be able to run a big single off it. My advice would be save up for Syvecs.

I believe what you said is spot on. Iirc you can sed it off to them to get it mapped for extras- however, they will charge you so much money you could buy a Syvecs anyway.

Nic Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Your Mines ECU is mapped to work with the stock j-spec injectors, cams and sequential turbos, you would need a different aftermarket ECU if you wanted to make any changes to these. Sounds like you hit the raised fuel cut limit, it is not safe to go above 1.2bar, you risk blowing the turbos and doing serious damage to the engine.

Guest Sausage Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Was just interested where its limits are. By sound of it I'm at them. As for about 1.2bar it's cool was a one off setting controller up not planned not on doing that again just seemed really mild. As for a better ecu I've a hydra ems if I really wanted to spice things up As for emailing mines same old story no reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony tt Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I didn't think you needed one with a Mines? You don't need a FCD with the mines but I think you would still need a boost controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattdavies Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Mines have never got back to me. Anyone PM me an email address Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Thing with MiNES ECUs is, unlike a lot of generic tweak units is that can also be fully bespoke, tuned to whatever spec the original buyer wants. As above email MiNES with the serial number and they'll get back to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sausage Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Ye that's not email address I've sent to so with try that one cheers. And I've tried ttc mode was ok but it's auto. And the boost control was a hks evc 3. I hate it. It's turned off as it just wants to over boost all the time on lowest setting. Ether way I've a greddy profect b to fit as one I can't use that one and two all the gauge egt boost oil temp are all greddy. Current boost is about 1bar 3" turbo back with 2.5" restricter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 1bar restrictor ring? Try a 1bar R ring without the BC then raise it to 1.2 if required with the BC. Might reduce over boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sausage Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 That's what it's boosting with no controller. With out the restricter it over boosts. Worse case I try a smaller restricter and raise the boost after I've tryed the greddy controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Ideally you want 1-1.1bar without a boost controller. That way it allows for a little headroom when the weather conditions change. The BC makes a massive difference to how hard the boost comes on. The BC keeps the wastegate completely closed until it sees 1.2bar whereas the stock setup will allow the wastegate to leak slightly way before then.

Guest Sausage Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I no all this it's the hks one don't seem to work right. Once greddy ones on at the weekend it go from there see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
