Default Quick question?

So currently I知 still looking through all post and reading them but nothing new on the Link ECU from my knowledge. I currently have a 8.5.1 350z fitted with a GTX 3582 turbo with my turbonetics kit. I have Uprev currently right now but I would like something that will save my investment. Any suggestions on my next choice of ECU I知 trying to get a plug and play solution. My IG: is also Insidious_af just in case I知 not responding fast enough.

I jumped to a Link G4+ from Haltech based on the customization and the safeguards you can setup to put the engine in fail-safe if oil pressure drops, coolant pressure spikes, or fuel pressure drops.

Is that your car in your post? and are you military?

first & foremost - thank you for your service

second - at some point in time put a aftermarket brake setup on your to-do list. You have a bunch of money tied up in ground effects, wheels, some engine upgrades and you are running OEM calipers/rotors ... all I'm saying, even if you dont track the car, look into a set of akebonos, OEM brembos, Stoptech, AP Racing...

the reliability of my car isnt awesome but I'm pretty hard on it. It's not a daily. You're looking around $1200 for the hardware, factor in $300 for quality sensors, $500 for installation/custom wiring, and then factor in $500-$1000 for tuning...

You'll lose uprev completely if you go to Link

I've done everything

Thanks brother I will look in to the brakes. The car wasn稚 going to be turbocharged but I have in when my brother turbocharged his z so.... that痴 why the car looks the way it does. What do you have set up on the custom wiring harness for your car. I thought the ECU was plug in play. I知 going to your post now to read it.

Yea - you値l have to disect the ecu wiring harness to splice in any additional sensors - wide band signals, MAP, boost control solenoid signal, fuel pressure, coolant pressure, oil pressure... etc, plus any other custom inputs you池e looking to install.
