I got a little bit of an oldie but GOODIE put in today on the NA-T swap. I had a bit of luck finding a gem in the desert. Scored a great deal on a Mines Tuned Aristo ECU. So I pulled the OG Aristo ECU out and slapped it in. Must I say... WOW! I was not expecting AEM Infinity Quality out of this little guy. My goodness is it perfect. I should have known better considering Mines is the tuner and does it show.
The ECU did the following,
Took away, speed limit cut at 189 KPH / 118 MPH (can go well over now) - Not fully verified (no track)
Increased the RPM limit to 7,100 from 5,800
Completely changes the shift points for the A/T( way way way smoother)
Cleared out the Lean Spots at higher RPM (noticable smooth power band that pulls all the way through)
Took away the Over Boost Fuel-Cut limit and CEL
To give you an idea of how surprised I was when I finally drove it, my buddy and I came across a 2017 CTS-V on our initial test drive. Keep in mind CTS-V's are 600HP cars!
We ran the cars from a 40 roll, the Lexus held on to the CTS-V through 3rd gear. When in 4th gear he started pulling and by the top of 4th he had a good two/three hree on us. That sgocked all of us (including the v owner) I was guessing the car to be around 440hp but that definitely lead me to believe I'm closer to 520hp on 15PSI with this ECU.
Not 100% sure what the master Mines did to it. But Fiona is a totally differebt monster now!!!
That looks great! You may want to clock your turbo so that the oil lines are closer to being completely vertical.
Thanks man!!!
Did this so, I can tighten the 10an fitting, it gave me a little room with a wrench, but wil clock it back a little!
you may have to get the cold side elbow,, so you don’t burn through bunch of couplings!!
but yeah man I’m working on it slowly, a week at Panama City beach just got here

I definitely agree! That coupling is going to be toast, I’m sure
