Injectors and fuel pump and remap are easy.I'm already running Ecutek. Check the link below to see what is possible. In the Ford world we are really starved of features.ref http://www.nagtroc.o...kage-available/On the R35 you can dynamically flip a switch to change between 98 & E85 maps.BrianAny reason why Ecuteck hasn't brought out anything for ford? Too small of market? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, they are based in the U.K!Cobb tuning is another company that does great stuff, based in the U.S. Strangely, it also focuses on Japanese vehicles, plus BMW.You'd think they at least try to compete with SCT.With our Fords making power is easy; with E85 it is easier... yet progress on the ecu front is stagnant.Brian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do my hills district customers every 2 weeks and working south Sydney its a fair round trip just for a dyno run. Prob try and get up there next week.

What would you say this unit would be safe for on e85. Doesn't worry me as I have twin 044's and only running 380rwkw on 98 at the moment but it would help this thread.Very tempted to get ID1000's and an e85 tune, but nearest bowser is about 1700k's away so it would be sucrogen stuff, which I hear is harder on the fuel system.

First person to give an answer will be deemed correct and taken as gospel.And go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
