News concerning TechnoSquare ECU...
UPDATE (its been a while)
10/24/03
Techos has informed me that they have programs for the Plenum, Headers, Test pipes, Exhaust, and Intakes and any combination of them for your car..
All trannys, all versions of: G35sedan, G35Coupe, Z33 are available for tuning
They are still developing the TT version ECU, and an SC version is on the way.. but awaiting testers for the ATI and/or Stillen..

Hey Jason-
I would advise you to call em to check.. typically they charge a 1 time flat fee for future changes.. but as far as the price goes.. give them a call...

there is a very generalized power increase measurements done via Gtech Pro from a Technosquare customer on 350zmotoring...
that link here: copy paste
350zmotoring.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4537
user showed fantastic gains..
this is Mike's quote, again this is HIS words taken from using GtechPro:
"Finally, I had my ECU remapped by Technosquare this week. As you can see from the chart, this made the greatest improvement. Technosquare isn't cheap but they seem to have done the job. I have only driven the car about 10 miles since the reflash but I haven't had a hiccup so far. The car runs perfectly and definitely has more power. It was also nice to not smack into the rev limiter as the tach approaches redline. The car made nice gains throughout the rpm range, not just at redline. The redline gains were awesome though. At 6500rpm there was almost a 30hp gain and 21 ft-lbs. Peak gains were 9 hp and 9 ft-lbs."

How can the ecu help an ati installation besides upping the fuel cut? I'm looking for a way to remove the fmu.

you can adjust the timing on the top end to reduce the risk of detonation, work with aftermarket injectors, and other stuff.. since ur SC'd youd probably want a high redline eh
if the Emanage is that good, i wonder why Greddy hasnt released their kit, if it was supposedly ready a year ago... imho, emanage wont work any better.

Chebosto,
I have heard some people say that they have installed plenum/exhaust and then dyno'd and they were running a little lean. Will the TS ECU upgrade help return A/F ratio closer to optimal for those whom now have an engine with greater air flow?
Thanks,

Cheston.....is Technosquare removing the feedback loop, or just reducing it?
My thinking is along the same lines as jesse's......without being able to sense boost, there will be problem areas with an ECM reflash fix for the ATI system......yet the problem's that emanage has had makes me not want to go that way either........i find it highly disturbing that there are so many pending turbo systems, and yet none of them are available yet.......that tells me that the fuel management solution is a big, big problem

I know there are some older threads on the Flashed ECU, but I have a simple question. The procedures to ReSet the ECU will not remove any of the upgraded "flash" done to the programming will it? I assume that once the FLASH is done, the information is pernamently stored and a reset will not remove all the upgraded programming...
Have you done testing on specific intake / exhaust / header combos or do you now simply make a generic change in the programming for any brand of these specific mods?
I'm completely new to Fuel maps and ECU programming, I would simply assume that with the addition of headers, intake, exhaust, you would simply up the fuel as the airflow has certainly been increased by the mods. Am I close to being correct?

NO. resetting the computer with the reseting procedure will NOT erase the ReFlashing Program.

Yes. THere are now 'specific' maps for combinations of PLenum, headers, intake, exhaust available.
EJ: feedback was significantly reduced and pretty much eliminated... but they still left a slight safety margin as not to create any safety problems with the car... i'm fully confident in my boost program for the ECU.... programming the stock ecu to handle the fuel imho is far better than a system thats trying to trick the computer..
until technos can get an ATI Z in their studios, the ATI fuel reprogram will still be unknown and ATI Z owners will have to stick with the FMU that came with the kit.. i'm just saying you guys can have more options.

Cheston, since you guys are leaving in a small bit of the feedback loop, that means that the ECM is still able to alter itself, even though the rate at which this occurs has been drastically reduced......are you guys recommending that the ECM's be reset after a certain period of time, or mileage?
Also....we both know that the stock injectors are not working very well above 6K RPM's for this application......for this prototyping of an ATI Z's ECM, would there be a set of injectors thrown into the deal also?

I didn't know if the "program" addressed changing A/F ratio or simply adjusting the timing slightly or whatever. I've never purchased/researched ECU upgrades until now.
