Thread: vvl swap help

It doesnt have to currently have a VE tune on it.
As long as its a calum ecu, it will have the chips that you remove and reprogram.

The link I provided for I burn EPROM chips, is a forum member who will reprogram the chips with the proper tune for you, thats who I sent mine to.
.....
This is my current Calum Basic



You can see the chips above (owner labeled VE/VE) you remove those and they can be reprogrammed for anything you want.
....

BTW a Real time calum ecu is better/will cost you more.

Real time ECU lets you hook up to a laptop and change the tune, slightly, while the car is RUNNING.

With a Calum Basic you have to turn the car OFF and physically remove the chips then reprogram with any changes.

okay i found a real time calum for 460 from a forum member. Is that about right? i might just go for the real time than.


Cake looks good

Sounds about right. But see if you can haggle it a bit.lol I mean a NEMU new is $500.

I know right, just wish it was mine.

Yeah ill try and see if he'll go down a bit.
Thanks alot

You're welcome.

And I'm REALLY SORRY... NEMU boards are B13 only, thus far....

But still haggle lol

okay

It's totally fine

But the realtime calum will work?

It says B14. and also, whats with the obd2 sensor? Do people by pass those and get rid of them? Are obd2's bad?

Yes, that would be perfect.

Sweet, thanks again

OBDII just runs a lot more sensors than OBDI, and you need them all or will have a CEL(check engine light) and wont pass inspection.

For example-
Two O2 sensors
Must have EGR
Crank sensor
etc.

There are ways(resistors) to trick the ECU though.

And you can continue running OBDII or use a step down harness to run an OBDI ECU.

If I had an OBDII car I would use the ECU you found instead of running a step
down harness, but thats up to you.
