Too complex?

Its one of the cruder ECU's out there, especially the mapping software which I could write better than if I was pissed and in a hurry, I cant believe he doesnt just employ someone for a few weeks who knows what they are doing to give him a hand with it! Its fucking shockingly ameteur crap.
The ECU's themselves work ok though once they are mapped, nothing fundamentally wrong with them.


and u can only have it mapped by Emerald then obviously so u r limited with one tuner and not a cossie specialist either,that's what concerns me.
Eh? Anyone can map emerald if they can map, the only additional thing they need comapred to mapping a decent ecu is to have a wall handy to keep banging their head against while they are mapping it.

Dave is without a doubt the person who knows them best though as is certainly a good recomendation but he isnt the only one who can do it.

As per spikey though I wouldnt replace an L8 with one, it works great anyway and the only reason to replace an L8 in the first place is get the option to be able to more easily remap it, which if you arent doing it yourself anyway makes it pointless to replace really, unless you happen to be going to a specific tuner who chooses to use something else.
