fruity_south Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 im thinking of getting one of the neo afc as im getting the upra nos'ed and want to monitor the readings of air fuel ratio ect, do these just fit inbetween the ecu and the ecu origanl harness and does the ecu need re mapping after?

JustGav Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 The neo is a fuel fudger, so it sits between the ecu and the sensors. You can't remap the stock ECU (and if you could, you wouldn't be putting a fudger in-line). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruity_south Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 im not looking to re map just monitor due to the nos being added and i think there is a little problem with the air fuel ratio. will the ecu not need re mapping then?

RobSheffield Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 You cannot remap the stock ECU, the apexi Neo will fool the ECU into thinking things are standard when they are not. Not always wise. Standalone ECU would be better. AFR guage until then. You said you want to turbo it so standalone is going to be required at some point.

JustGav Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 The neo doesn't monitor AFR's does it? I don't know the unit, I do remember the older SAFCII didn't do a proper job. If you are worried about AFR's the ONLY solution is a proper wideband system. My choices is always the Innovate product set... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruity_south Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 ok ill leave it for now then cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Yep the Neo does not include a widband controller, get yourself the Innovate set up if you want to monitor exactly whats going on, the you will have a very useful tool for future upgrades.

Tricky-Ricky Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 and where do i get one of them from? Here http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/products.php or there are a few traders in the UK that stock them, this place http://www.vwspeedshop.com/store/home.php?cat=414 does them at a good price, but i cant see just the LM-1, they used to do it for about £200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
