lexuspros ecu performance for limited time?
Ok first odd please dont tell me to search i have reach everything that is available as info off the site. Second i still dont quite realize the difference between the full upgrade and the regular for 900. I also have read the gain only lasts for a few days then you must reset and recalibrate, whats up with that!? Well if i could hear from some people that have the upgrade and to see if this is true would be greatly appreciated since i am looking into buying the ecu upgrade. Thanks guys, look forward to hearing from you....

seriously, I do remember one member on here with it that said that he did have to reset the ECU fairly often for it to maintain the new programing- our ECU's "learn" and adapt to our driving styles. Its learning effects how it shifts, when it shifts, fuel mapping, etc. so it makes sense...

I have done the upgrade it is my only actual performance, its pretty good. It will need ot be recalibrated after conservative driving for a while, this is done by pulling the fuse and then replugging, and taking the car up to 100 mph full throttle a few times. It does feel noticably more powerful afterwards for up to a week or more, the gains do fade back, but Its always better than stock I would say. Iv'e been thinking about just selling my upgraded ecu since I never drive ultra-fast, but now that I have a job it's not overly nessesary.
I would say just leave the car alone and don't bother.
