Re: ECUTUNE Stage 2v7 installed
nope went straight from stock, i bought the one from paynter that included the injectors and maf. i recommend removing the fuel rails to take off the injectors cause you might end up stripping the screws on the injector caps, i did luckily i had a spare on the parts car.

Re: ECUTUNE Stage 2v7 installed
Which brand of what?
edit: I think you're probably confused because of the link. It should be "ecutune.com", but it goes to "ectune.com". Typo. Go here: http://www.ecutune.com/

Re: ECUTUNE Stage 2v7 installed
ic, thanks. so how does this stage 2 suff work, it says it can deliver 500whp worth of air with maf sensonr and 500whp gas with SR20DET injectors.. does it mean it wastes more gas when u drive regularly or only when u accelerate.. im new sorry for the funny questions

Re: ECUTUNE Stage 2v7 installed
I doubt it would make any noticeable difference in gas mileage unless you drive it differently (feels faster, so you drive it faster). Basically the point of the stage 2 ECU, injectors, and MAF is to support some other power-adding mod, like a turbocharger, 11:1 compression ratio engine, or even just cams, etc. The stock MAF only supports up to 250hp, and the ECU and injectors wouldn't be much past that. The stage 2 stuff will support much more, but by themselves, they wouldn't actually just magically add all that power. The tuning of the stage 2 ECU will make a bit of difference though. TCU = transmission control unit; ECU = engine control unit. Separate computers in the car. Automatic transmissions are controlled by a TCU, manual swapped SVXs don't need them anymore. I think Gamesy's car is getting a 5-speed, btw.

As for gas mileage i cant really say anything yet as i still only have my "2eat" transmission in the car lol. I'm not sure how much power increase is given from the tune but myself and my friends have noticed the car pulls alot harder than before. You are correct my car is getting a 5spd put in.... slowly but surely. i'm at the final stages of tweaking my x-member and finished up the pedals, all thats left is getting an engine hoist to pull the engine and scrap whats left of the parts car.

I wonder if you're getting any more power increase than those of us with the stage 1 tune. I would think that the injectors and MAF would only make a difference with some other mod there to help out.

Re: ECUTUNE Stage 2v7 installed
i havnt run a stage 1 tune so i wouldnt know, its allowing me to use regular fuel so its easier on my wallet in the long run. Once i'm up and running i wanna get it dynoed to see what figures i get.
