Default Novel ECU tune

As promised a while back
my car is now running a ECU tune From NOVEL Tuning Japan
just put it in today still need to do some more tuning
dyno will be done next week once the car runs in with the new ECU

Redline is now at 7400
done about 10kms on run in driving
the ECU still needs to learn more but i think the gains are there for sure

Interesting...

Looks like there is some hesitation round about the 5-6K rpm range?

Is this a US spec F? The ECU was a pretty penny, huh? Nevermind, someone answered it.

No, might mean UK spec as well!

Don't forget were RHD here as well.

Look forward to seeing how the op gets on with this.

Any chance you can tell me how much this cost??

Hopefully this might be the breakthrough I've been waiting for!

I believe the tune cost 2k... I hope they can tune the car to hold power all the way to redline.

The dyno charts on novels we set show 20 wheel. Not worth 2 grand at all

I agree with darbs. Unless this ecu is user accessible and not just a flash, 2 grand is an absurd price. I want something I can plug my laptop into and alter timing and fuel maps/datalog for that price, much like what my Evo had.
