Hi can anyone tell me is there an adaptor you can get to plug the omex Ecu into the cosworth management loom on my escort or am I best just cutting the end off and wiring in
Because I have had it mapped and am not happy with the power that it's got and was told it should have as I have just had it on the dyno so looking to change to something I don't have to trave 4-5 hours to have mapped
The management you use really doesn't have any effect on what power you make, unless there is a problem with your install and you end up curing that by proxy, I would at least get it mapped/setup by someone reputable like MSD (or whoever is close to you) before changing, if you do have issues they may well be able to sort those there and then too.
Fitting a nice new ECU and loom is always good and often comes with many new features, but may well not be needed in your case

That's the problem I have just had it set up and spent Ł3000+ and that's by a very respected place and it's running well to rich on top end and it's not got what I asked and was told it would have so now I cannot spend more money and travel 5 hours back to him so want out and use omex just don't no if I can just wire strait onto my cosworth loom

Ah I see! Where did you take it, can you really not take it back (I know it's a long drive but you paid good money), but also how do you know it's running rich?

If it can (which I don't know) you wouldn't really want to, a 36-1 setup would be more reliable if you are going to the trouble of changing, but then you may as well have a new loom too.... all more money though.
It's to far to drive I had it recovered there last time and with all that it will be cheeper to just change the management lol and he had the lambda in on the dyno
it depends what your budget for ecu is mate because i wouldnt be heading to omex etc id be heading for something alittle more advanced like the syvecs 6 or even the 6 plus.
The Syvecs is overkill for a CVH, most if not all of the options will remain unused for the average CVH install.
If I were you and you are dead set on changing then sell off the Cossie stuff (I'm sure Jano will buy it back off you) and go with whatever your nearest reputable tuner recommends, that way you have local support in case of problems which lets face it often occur even with the best will in the world, no system is perfect, no installer is perfect and 30 year old Fords are definitely not perfect! lol

I take it that wasn't Ł3000+ on just Cossie management?
Karl has given probably the best piece of advice above: Go and ask your local tuner what they can support. I'm sure Omex will be in the list. There's no point in having expensive management that only a very small number of people in the country will support at a 5 hour drive away.

+1.
Alot of issues can arise with people using an alien management system and it is also something they can blame as well...
A webber ecu isnt wank or shite its the operator that's wank or shite ! Fact most are using ahmed files and don't have a fucking clue on how to trim them and get them right and will work on any 4 pot car with the correct trigger and sensors ect BUT seems a pricey complicated way to use it plus they are getting old now so going with a modern ecu could be a better idea
