Open ECU?
 

Does anyone know if there will be ecuflash support for our ROM's yet? I know that I can currently tune wrx's and Sti's no problem, I searched and all I found was EcuTek. I'm also a member of open Ecu because of my evo and it is all over the forums, however nothing confirmed as of yet. I was hoping if anyone has info on this system or any other self tuning options, (Cobbs access port, EcuTek, Romraider) they could post within this thread for the community.

Tuning

EcuTek has cracked the stock ROM, Lechute, Perrin, Vtuned have all complete stock car ROM flashes, increases range from 10 to 18whp, and 6 to 16wtq UPDATE*** 7.04.2012

Cobb tuning working on cracking the ECU, no options available at this time UPDATE*** 6/23/2012

Romraider is attempting to define our ROM, still unable to dump ROM image UPDATE*** 6/23/2012

Haltec is working on a system for our ECU,

and finally MoTec is also developing a plugin piggyback.

Standalone

Element tuning has successfully adapted the hydra EMS to this platform, still working on making the D4s system functional. Update 7.10.2012

Datalogging

tactrix cable will communicate with ECU, need to properly define ROM so that we can access SSM data, as of right now only CAN diagnostic data available. UPDATE***6/23/2012

logging with Evoscan in CAN+ mode using SSMII can datalog basic parameters (only basic ECU functions scaled correctly) UPDATE***6/23/2012

E92M3Guy, Bambrose, and myself are working on CAN definitions, with the possiblity of unlocking some of the SSM definitions through various logging, interface, and decoding programs.***UPDATE6/28/2012

I would like to thank arghx7, Dimman, serialk11r, E92M3Guy, and Bambrose for their contributions so far...:happy0180:

Added the EcuTek defined factory ignition (top), and fuel map (bottom)...

have you seen this?> http://www.romraider.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=8475

Haltech has a car now for development, Motec's also doing an M1 plugin ECU.

Where did you get that info of the MoTec. I havent heard it.

From Jamie @ Motec

News to me but great if they did. M1 has been promised 3 years ago. I didnt want to wait so i just got the M800 for my Toyota

Cool I have the tactrix cable so I will pull it right now! I will update with info, since the rom pulls Evoscan should also work to datalog. I will post when I have a conclusion.

"Throttlehappy", one of the open source tuners from the subaru community posted this at another forum after he couldn't initially pull the ROM:

"Found RomRaider can extract the ROM on FT86 using SSM Readback command"

Update: Attempted to pull rom image using SH7058 for CAN vehicles, no luck at all??? so I attempted to pull the ROM using 68HC16Y5, and it does initialize, however it cuts of once it starts pulling the tables, the only 68HC16Y5 rom I have is for the 2002 WRX. Interesting, because I would assume that the CAN would have worked better, however because SSI initialized, I can confirm that it is a Subaru ECU (I have a manual trans FR-S), so Cobb Access port, and when table are defined OpenECU and Romraider should be able to be used.

Evoscan did not initialize what so ever, I do have the latest software and the SSM would not pull. I figured this would not work as it is more geared toward Mitsu, or OBDII, and this vehicle definately has a CAN interface.

I just downloaded the freshest set of definitions from romraider I will now try again!

This is why Oz is a magical place. :)

On the new cars do the Haltech ecus run with a parallel setup? Will this be a harness to mate a PS2000 (for example, or something new) with the engine and stock ecu? I know a tuner that does full Platinum Series and Vipec V88 standalone installs, but I have no knowledge of newer systems, especially with setups that need to pass a scan of the stock ecu for emissions.

Update, I'm not getting anything through romraider, nor the logger in Romraider... I can however make requests with the SSM as stated above.

This is what I'm waiting for! I remember when Open ECU hit the EVO's, it was a great tuning capability, and made pricing for professional tunes MUCH more affordable!

It is pretty awesome, I have my evo self tuned, and it is really a great option to have. I just hope that Romraider will be available for this ECU.

I had both my EVOs tuned with it...and you're right it was awesome. Plus you could get a tune e-mailed to you from a tuner for $50. It wasn't the most aggressive tune, but it did wake the car up.
