In Reply to: Questions on ECU..... posted by James on September 22, 2002 at 19:15:56:
I talked to Brian Catts and he said that there is just one basic reprogramming routine. But, you do have a choice on where the rev limiter is set. He also said they can do custom programming, but that's a wholly different process, and typically warranted only with And from experiences at the track and from doing research about the VE... our motor doesn't seem to make any decent power above the stock redline. So, the JWT tech said that the only real reason people might want the rev limiter bumped up on the VE is b/c they autocross the car and need to extra high revs sometimes. Hope this helps. : Looks like I'll end up doing the ECU soon. A friend of mine is kinda just gonna buy it for me, lol. : Does it bump up the rev limiter? And if so is it even need to do so (like make power all the way up or whatever?). : Is there custom stuff I should get done or just tell them the mods I have and they'll do what's best? : Any comments/advice about it?
I did a lot of research about the JWT ECU a while back when I was seriously thinking about getting it. It does bump the rev limiter up. But, I believe you have a choice on where you want it set. I talked to Dan at WSP, and he has nothing but good things to say about it. I likes it. He has CAI, Y-pipe, and ECU.
pretty radical engine modifications. Those were his exact words copied from an email. I guess he is talking about Forced Induction. But, with regular bolts ons, I don't think they change the programming any.
