which is best lads ive already got an omex loom installed in my car but havent got the ecu, was thinking about just buying a 600 ecu or fitting v4


any advice would be great

 

Omex

 

I went for omex because of the mapper I used

 

If you already have the omex loom in the car, it'd save a lot of hassles!

 

not to worried about the wiring side of things, just want the better of the 2 ecus

 

Better still. Omex 700. Tony Turbo has one in his RST that he is soon to be breaking. That is an ECU that is loaded with features and little used. They are over a grand new, I reckon he'd take £750 for it.

 

list down on a piece of paper all the features of the omex ecu you are thinking of along with price, and then do the same for the V4. I think this will make your decision

 

Good quality idle control? Full sequential injection? Good choice of who can/will map it?

 

I think the mapping side of things is the biggest seller of all this. No disrespect to M-Tech but a lot of places won't map ANYTHING ms based which is what I think Christian is getting at.

 

looks like im going to have to travel for mapping anyway who is the best to map omex

 

Mines going to Track 'n' Road. I'm running Omex 600.

 

Corten Miller Performance are excellent at mapping omex, we did a custom dash for them in their demo car, its a civic turbo running omex which is now running over 500bhp.

Ben and Tom run the firm whom their late farther John started, great outfit with some very impressive projects on the go. Oh and the road that leads up to their workshop is like a race track

Incidently the interface between the omex software and the ms software are extremly similar so I see no reason why a mapper would struggle, I think that mappers are usually put off by ms due to the amount of poorly put together diy ecu's.

 

most mappers will map omex, its a very common aftermarket ECU.

it's also very well established with good tech support backup etc.

plus you're already 50% of the way there with the loom.

it seems a bit of a no brainer NOT to use it to be honest

 

pmd tony but he hasnt replied how soon is he going to be selling as could do with 1 this week
