Default pectel t2 value

I've been looking at T2 ecus recently and I've spotted one second hand with a loom.

What are they worth and is there anything I should be asking before buying?

Cheers

You should be asking if the ecu needs a dongle to allow you to map it, quite a few out there do. Get the serial no. and ask Pectel.

Would it still need one if I was getting a tuner to map it?

Hopefully taking it to nms.

Thanks for the quick reply though Martin

If the ECU is encrypted and needs a dongle then Karl (or anyone else without the dongle) wont be able to access the ECU, this can be sorted by Pectel but they know how to charge! It needs to open developer.

Cheers Martin

What originaly seemed liked a good buy looks to be alittle less so now.

I have asked the questions, let's see what reply I get.

If it is open , what is a resonable value?

Just got this back from him in reply to

A couple of questions regarding the ecu.

Does it require a dongle to be accessed?


Yes a lead will be required to map the ecu. The loom has a 5mm jack plug socket, but I no longer have the lead but it can be made easily or acquired from pectel(Now cosworth)
The ecu was used on an alfa romeo 16v boxer engine and was mapped on a dyno and will need to be remapped.
Serial number s/n****
Not sure if he either doesnt get what im asking or is avoiding the question.

I will fire off an email to pectel with the serial asking for any information they can give me

You can get the lead from Ryan at Car Looms for not alot of money.
I sold my T2 ECU with loom for YB engine and a CD with Descpro and all the profiles i had for Ł800

Hope this helps

This is up with a loom for 450, altbough the loom will need modifying to suit the YB.

He has replied saying that you only need the lead and software to map it and they never used a dongle. He is going to his engine builder tomorrow night to see if he has them.

Is it worth the 450?
How much is the loom going to cost me?

Don't spose you kept a copy of that disc did you Gav
