I don't know if you can or can't with Ecuteck. You can acutally make the car shutoff if the coolant pressure is exceeded to save any damage. What I see is you will be able to tell if you have an issue before you pop the headgaskets or push coolant out the overflow. I watched a video of Jay from Real St. talk about the switch to a billet 2JZ. He did say what the coolant pressure was on the cast block and with their new billet block. I don't remember the numbers but it was an eye opener.

I mean, I suppose I would find the data interesting at the least. If I was trying to protect a billet block from taking damage maybe I would be more on board with it. But on a stock block, I wouldnt care. About to leak or already leaking is the same thing to me, just a failed attempt that needs to be built again.

Here, Mazworx built their billet block.

I emailed Ecu tek about about logging capabilities all they said was go into custom maps. To me it sounded like R&D it yourself and once you figure it out let us know.

I have the actual paperwork from them on it. I will take a look later. I havent looked at that yet. I bet it's no big deal. It doesnt surprise me that they wouldnt make a big effort into explaining it via email... it may very well already be explained in the paperwork, and if its not, explaining it to a customer is not a very good use of time since you dont have access to the software to do it anyway :shrug:

Seb had my boost come in soft for the stock rods, feels and runs great maybe a tad laggy while shifting but it is safer that way
