Just trying to find out some info about whats available really, here is the situation...
At the moment, running F4R 730 engine, standard 172 ECU (siemens) with a map flashed onto it (GroupN from fashchip using the RSTuner interface).
Engine only has 'light' work, Schrick cams, not much else that is relevant.
Now, I was supposed to be getting sent a file to flash onto the ECU from the guy who runs fastchip/rstuner, as he already wrote a map for someone who had schrick cams in a 172, but hes decided to ignore any messages from me etc, cant be arsed chasing him around!
Anyway, just wondering what options for ECU's I have... I want to steer clear of OMEX if possible, everyone I know who has had it have had nothing but issues...
I have nothing else relying on the ECU (Its a MK1 clio shell, with cut down valver loom for the dash/lights), basically all the 172 ECU is doing at the moment is running the engine, and thats it. So thats all the aftermarket one will be doing really!
In the future might mod the engine more heavily, but im sure 99.9% of aftermarket units will be able to cope with most you can throw at it on a 4cyl engine...Also another requirement is how user friendly the unit is...I want to learn how mapping works, and how maps are written, this is one of the main reasons why I want to go aftermarket....Also data-logging is a must if possible.
Adaptronic? DTA?
