g60 ecu again

Recommended Posts

right have had my car on the rollers again today (91 g60 with standard recently rebuilt charger, 68mm pulley, sns chip), and it made a poxy 145 bhp, running flat until about 4.5k revs.. ive had my suspicions about this ecu for ages now buthave done the usual checks first to rule out the simple stuff, changed the temp sensors, 1m vac pipe, had all timing checked,had the crank bolt changed for a dx one etc..

 

i borrowed a mates ecu while on the rollers and plugged it in for a run (this ecu also has an sns chip) and it made a tidy 187bhp (thats more like it :) )

 

so obviously the fault is with the ecu/chip/mapping. do you guys think that if i sent my ecu away for a remap it would make things all ok or does it sound like a shagged ecu thats not worth bothering with?

 

let me know what you think. karl.

Strange one...

 

Maybe the map sensor has died? or duff chip/map like you say.

 

Sorry i can't be of more help...Although there is an ecu in the classifieds.

Karl,

 

I tell you what I would do mate after today, try and find a standard chip to plug into you ECU and then pop up to Wills for another run. At least that will isolate whether it is the map or the ECU itself
