ECU

Ok, a few of us are off to the nearest Dyno for a run in about 3 weeks, i'm not expecting a lot, but then it will probably need a tune.
The guys who run it reckon i will need a programmable ECU or a piggyback ECU in order to tune it, anyone know where i can get either one of those?
Thanks.

how bout a sct chip, and have it programmed to the car on the dyno. i got one from kenne bell, cost way to much, was preprogrammed by them, then i had it retuned on a local dyno, works great now

Thanks for the reply, i will look into it, our nearest dyno is more used to Subaru\Nissan\ [you can see where i'm going] but they have done a few Mustangs, but are not experts, about 10 of us are going, it works out at about Ã‚Â£40 [$80] instead of the usual Ã‚Â£60 as there's a few of us.

Sounds cool man. What intake did you go with I cant remember? And you had the 185s not the 165s right? Cant wait to see some numbers. The sct chip looks pretty cool, look into that. The tuners near you might not be able to do an awesome tune but I think they would still be able to get you a few extra hp and get a more efficient car. Good luck.

No i got the 165's [AFR 1402] as i knew they would fit straight on, just been in touch with the UK rep for SCT, seems they wont let him have the US database for your cars [how great is that] but his brother lives in the US, so he's got quite a bit of stang info.
In fact he wants the 4 digit number off my ECU to see if he' got enough to go on.

Oh yeh, i have the the Cobra intake, with a 65mm TB.
