cool


erm im not sure on FRST management

Get some beiges,superchip, cam, up the boost (change to T3, i would) and decent map and you'll be fine for over 200bhp

beiges only flow upto 230/240 bhp tho

Already on a T3 matey, go have a look in pics and vid. Cam is getting changed next week, but I'm not getting an uprated one as I don't want big power, just drivability.

You have neither

that is a normal aspirated XR2i ECU

not a fiesta turbo OFAC or OFAB ecu

I would not be running that on a turbo engine !!

if it was OFAC or OFAB it would say it yours has the code for XR2i

you will need to check the part number for the Map sensor.

OFAC uses the same type of map sensor as XR2i (yours could be either) but they are different a XR2i wont register much over vacuum (ie boost)

a 2i loom can be modded to work with fiesta bo ecu but u will need correct ecu and map sensor.

you could just have a different case.

need to take it to somone who knows these things.

Stu would probably be able to give more info

BTTT for Stu

Rab ive got an OFAC ecu and one from a XR31 EFI sitting here right now and your ecu has very similar codes to the 3i one and not the turbo ECU as it has OFAC stamped in big letters

If you want to have a look for yourself then pop over sometime mate.

You also have PM

You have installed the Ecu from a 1.6I CVH. The tag code is "1AFA"

You need an OFAC or OFAB to run boost pressure as the other tag codes are not capable of processing over 1bar absolute. Running this ecu with more than a couple of PSI boost will result in zero enrichment and an engine that closely resembles a mars bar in a furnace, so you MUST sort it out.

To double check, remove the casing and the processor nearest the expansion port normally has the same tag code ona printed label, but dont get excited as its unlikely anyone changed the case as there is zero point in doing so.

Sorry.

Right then. Time to find an OFAC and map sensor. If it pops, it pops... I'll just build a proper one.
