Default OMEX 600 ECU Mapping West Midlands

Anybody recommend somebody or a company in the West Midlands (preferably), who can map my 3dr Cosworth.

Runs an Omex 600 ecu, and even though I've serviced it, changed the wasted spark coil and leads for new items, and added new 071 spark plugs, its still coughing and spluttering.

Almost like an over fuelling issue.

Have you recently fitted it or changed anything on the engine to alter the fuelling?

Maps don't just turn bad

Would you guys have contact details for the above mentioned companies.

Car has been off road approx 2 years.

I've change fuel filter and wasted spark coil pack and ht leads, and spark plugs.

The items I removed looked like ka/mondeo kit.

No answer from Reyland, Northampton Motorsport booked until mid July, Will Pedley is to far.

Spoke a Darren at DWR so looks like I will be going there.
He has mentioned the Omex 600 is non senquential and can be tricky with 1000cc injectors.

Wow brilliant gesture from Norris.
Called and spoke to Olly, and he suggested to bring it down for a free check up before deciding on what route to take.

How often does that happen, normally everything comes at cost with cosworth tax added.

Run omex 600 on my 3dr with seimens injectors.. Runs quite rich at idle too causing a little
Rough running at cold start up.
Been told too about the omex 600 being limited by being semi sequential! Increasing
The plug gap help's the idle a little but spark can be blown out at high boost. I increased the plug gap To 0.7mm and just run 25psi boost pressure most of the time ...

Pj motorsport originally set my car up but being down south my nearest omex
Tuner is power engineering.

Hi mate

The problem I have is the Omex isn't to good with 1000cc injectors due to limiting software as you mentioned.
I haven't gapped the plugs as I was told with the wasted spark setup 071 plugs are ready to drop in.
Didn't think of pj Motorsport,

Mine seems to be fine on idle but splutters when going from gear to gear, clears up a little but very rough through the rev range generally.

When cold it's not so bad, on e warm it seems worse.

Definitely wise to get it checked mate.. Just invested in a afr gauge for mine to
Keep an eye on mine.
Also omex themselves are very helpful if you need any advice, helped me out a couple of times.. You can download their software free from their website then plug into the ecu via
The laptop..great for seeing what's going on but leave to the tuner's for any adjustment and
Set up etc..

Yes Karl and Ollie are great to deal with, Karl will spend the time explaining things to you, it's never to much trouble.Free check over aswell, you can't say fairer than that.

Well think I've found the cause of the problem.
Removed the plugs (071) tonight and number 1 has come away with the ht lead, whilst the rest of the plug is still in the head.
Only covered 20 easy road miles, what could cause that to happen.

Replaced it with an old plug, and it runs fine now.

Still going to get it checked, as I've noticed when I flick the anti lag switch it doesn't sound as aggressive as before, and no real noticeable change of engine tone, like before.

Over tightened plug, or a crap plug socket?

Neither mate.
Just very odd, must have been a bad plug.

Default OMEX

Can't go wrong with Daz at DWR. He has been mapping omex for years and his prices are very good.

Good to here.

Car has been fine since I changed that plug.

Must have been a bad batch as I've never seen that before.
