Yes it is a bit frustrating to have "different" spec cars.
In fact, Motec is a much much better ECU unit. It is focused on racing and not on driving in public roads. I had a discussion once with some profesionals drivers here in Nurburgring and they were telling me that if you want to be serious, then you have to remove factory ECU and install a racing one. Motec or Link are some examples. Factory ECU is good in reading data from MAF, trimming from the o2 sensor, using open and closed loops but all these are non-sense for real racing cars. 
So after all the issue was not with the MAF sensor. We never found such a change. There were actual changes in valves and camshafts, but it looks that the factory ECU can adapt and they didn't change anything else.
Have fun with the races!! |
Yes I agree the motec is a great ecu. it is however locked so we cant gain any performance from it. the oem ecu actually makes more power.
