ecu tune
 

Hey i was just wondering if anyone knew of a place in calgary to get an ecu tune?

Uprev has a dealer near calgary... Like 100 KM eastwards.

Theres a place called Lightspeed Innovations in Red Deer that does tuning with COBB. I talked to Cam about dyno tuning my Z for nitrous...2.5hrs its going to cost $700. That includes setting up, dyno time, tuning and installing a O2 bung for a wideband senser since they dont use the sniffer

awesome ill have to give them a call last summer i had put stillen headers, high flow cats, g3 intake, and cbe and just recently the high flow cats threw my service engine light i was hoping a tune might be able to fix the problem.

If you know 100% there isnt any issues with the car try disconnect your battery for a few mins, usally that will kill the service light if its not a issue actualy going on.

Could be the gas cap if you change it the light could turn on or if not on proper.

... before you reset the ECU did you try clearing the code?

yes i took it to nissan they charged me 100 bucks and said it was my high flow cats and that id have to live with the service engine light. so i was thinking of getting a custom cobb tune for my car.

Does anyone have their own CIPHER unit?

OP,
With the addition of those mods, you should get tuned asap....

WTF! - $100 to plug in the 'puter and clear the code - that's insane! You can get your own hand held unit - Crappy Tire had them on sale for $59 not long ago. Dealers suck....

Yeah, but those $59 units from crappy tire won't clear a fault code from the 370. But still, if you get the proper unit (CAN), then do it yourself.

What do you need to get to be able to access the fault codes and reset them? Are they readily available?

Equus Innova 3360. Google it. Cost about $200 but does a whole lot more than clear codes.

Any "newer" ODB-II scan tool with the CAN (controller area network) protocol will do. These run around $150-$200. And yes, they do a lot more than clear fault codes. They will decode manufacturer specific codes and MIL issues.

I was warned by stillen that a tune was a must when using headers with HFC's + CBE, when I get my headers on I'm heading to lightspeed in Red deer for my tune, heard good things.

when i bought my headers last summer they never told me anything about needing a tune after you have full bolt ons but i booked my car in for a tune at lightspeed in red deer they cant get me in till june 14th.

Let us know your experience and results at Lightspeed when you get it done. If good, I might take mine there too.

I'm going to Lightspeed june 7th will post numbers after

I might go too.
Wow that long of a line-up to book there.

They are a b1tch to get into. But Cam is an great tuner I wouldn't let any other tuner in Alberta touch my car.

good to hear, good to hear
