Default JDM ECU Piggyback Setups - post them up

Trying to get information on different fuel controllers members are using for JDM map sensor 2JZGTE ecu's.

Basically what you are using, how it works, etc.. There isn't a whole lot of info out there and this info would help fellow CL members out choosing a piggyback.

Ali ,

One of the only piggy back i like is the map ecu 2 , i have seen someone made 800whp on ethanol on the aristo ecu with the map ecu lol, it was unbelievable.
I was going to same aem fic, but i am done with aem products..

let me know what get!

wow, yeah I had heard the map ecu worked with the aristo ecu, but thats pretty impressive. I did see they have maps for it online depending on injector size. I thought it would be redundant since our have map sensors, but I did hear they work well and you can get rid of boost cut with them even. I will let you know which way I go.

Thanks for posting up, This is one of the things I was wondering about, some say it works great and others can't get it to work at all. would you mind sharing the in/out settings and a ballpark of % fuel you have to pull.
alot of members just want to run 550's the simplest way possible and I think the safc fits the bill there.

Ali ,

The map ecu 2 is not really that expensive for what it does.

I guess depending on your power goal you can use the safc, which i don't like because it just trick the ECU to think this and that.

Yeah I just wanted to get a collection of info on all the different types, im not even looking for one atm.

The map ecu 2 still tricks the ecu by changing the map voltage, it just has a nice table you can enter all the stuff into so you can tune each load which is nice. the v2 can also pull timing which is good, but not as needed with gte ecu.

alot of people just want to run 550's or 660's so I want to get a collection of info all in one place.
These ecu's have been out there for a long time, I am sure there are a lot of different setups.

once my car is back together after the v160 swap i will post all my safc2 setting to run the 550cc injectors on aristo ecu. with perfect air fuel ratio of 14.7 at idle and low throttle and 10.5 at wot

JDM Soarer converted to manual, e-manage blue, stock injectors @ somewhere between 15 and 18 psi. Also stock turbos with HKS 264 cams. Plan to upgrade to E-mange ultimate to rev the 1j to 7750 rpm, run 650 injector, andbolt on a hx35 with bep .70 back.

thats what im running, but SAFC I, 550s boosting 14psi on a HX35. also 14.7 at idle but it varies its never steady of course 14-15 sometimes peaks at 16 which is normal.. other than that i'm in the 10-11.7 afr's in boost. plugs gaped at .027 its street tuned by the way.. only problem i ran into was some detonation @4-4500 rpm so at that rpm my afr's are in the 10s. guy who tuned it could've done a better job i think.. oh and im running 50/50 water/meth kicks in at 10psi.

1jzgte

i'm in the (-)18 to mid (-)30% thru out the rpm range. no boost cut

Any other experiences with the JDM ecu and 550's using an SAFC or SAFC II to pull fuel out?

I'm going to be going this route and I'd like to get an idea of how the ECU responds to pulling the extra fuel out for the 550's.

^ come on guys this is the oldest trick in the xJZGTE book. it works. it's alright for the most part, and there has been documented accounts of this for over a decade.

I run emanage ultimate. I got it for about the average price of an safc and it's worth every penny. No fuel cut, can kill speed cut too which is cool for keeping stuff like cruise control, Timing control works, fuel control works. I also used the dip switches and assigned maps to them and run dual injection/ignition maps to double resolution. Data logging is awesome, the unit also has an afr target feature that works pretty good. it will definitely get you in the ballpark. There's even more that I haven't mentioned/can't remember/don't care. It's a very underrated setup. It can be a bit of a pain in the *** because with as many features as it has, it's still a device of manipulation, so you have to figure out a way to manipulate the units features to manipulate the ecu at it's best if that makes any sense. For example injector scaling. Greddy support is a joke, so you're on your own. I've messed with this system on aristo ecu, soarer/jzx ecu, and currently soarer/jzx 1jz vvti in my daily. I run id100os on it and e85 daily. Car fires amazing, idles/runs amazing. It's all in the tune. TO UTILIZE THIS UNIT TO IT'S FULLEST EXTENT YOU MUST HAVE THE WIDEBAND HARNESS AND GREDDY PRESSURE SENSOR WITH HARNESS.
