I wanted one that showed the table you see on the right. That table shows cell's the car has or is driving in. Now above that are options for up to 10+ tables all logging different things like Fuel Trims, Timing, Knock, AFR vs MAF etc etc etc. With those I can take what the computer see's, what I tell it to do in real time and what an outside source like my wideband and put the figures together. I can also tell it to compare the figures the car's ECU and Factory O2's see compared to my Wideband in the same cells.
That system tunes most GM's, Ford and Dodge vehicles. Comes with 10 credits (Costs 2 per vehicle and each credit is 49.99), the cable and software (which is free to DL so you can see what it looks like before owning it, you just can't save any edits you make or flash a tune) and access top a huge forum offering support all for less than 600.00. So to me when I saw the ECUTek and remembered them from NASOC I was blown away at the cost.
The Unichip can be that gap in between and it seems to be a great quality product. But getting your hands on the information needed to make the decision to jump in or not... that's a little harder and I understand why for them but for me I need to know what to expect and well I don't.
However if its anything like Megasquirt (which can also be used as a piggyback or full stand alone) or HP Tuners then yes I can build an E85 tune with some dyno and driving time. I would also share it so long as it did not upset Jack. |
With the unichip tuning software you can only see the sensors unichip is connected to. For our setup that's Crank Position, Throttle Position, and MAF. If you want any additional information you'll need something that connects to OBD. I personally am using Techstream since that gives me easy access and logging of all the sensors.
The maps just show how much the fuel/timing are being adjusted. So if the map shows all zeros then its just the stock tune. Unichip actually has a very handy way of doing real time tuning using pots that they can adjust to get and then send that adjustment to your map. Of course you can always manual make corrections to the map.
