Stillen Air to Air setup

StillenZ84 · 08-18-2015, 07:01 PM

As far as the tune goes with this new setup, are you guys going the Uprev or EcuTek route?

I'm going with the EcuTek ... The car is now at AAM Competition and they have convinced me that the EcuTek with it's advanced tuning capabilities and safety features is worth it's weight in gold.
Would rather limp to the side of the road and drive another day - as opposed to getting towed home with another blown motor... and having to go through this ordeal again.

An ounce of prevention isworth a pound of cure

Can you fill me in on this safety feature?

I have an email in to AAM and also to EcuTek requesting detailed information in their own language.
Will post it as soon as I receive the answers from them.

But as soon as I heard that they could tune the car to go in to limp mode when certain key parameters [including the knock sensor]were exceeded I signed on the dotted line.

Here is the response from EcuTek regarding their Tuning Software Capabilities for the 'Z'

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your interest in our 370Z tuning software product, we believe we have the best software available at any price for tuning the stock ECU in this very underrated vehicle.

Unlike some other software suppliers we have full control and understanding of the ignition strategy, Variable Cam Timing and complicated VVEL systems, using our bespoke "In house developed" RaceROM code we have also added custom functionality such as 4 way map switching (controlled by the cruise control switches), Flex Fuel capability, Custom maps (Tuner defined) Knock Warning, Flat Foot shift and adjustable Launch Control to name but a few, we can also hijack the factory oil temperature gauge to display certain parameters such as Air Fuel Ratio or fuel trims.

RaceROM Custom Maps gives the tuner the ability to set up complicated safety strategies, for instance, the tuner can use an input to a Custom Map such as Air Fuel Ratio against engine Load, should the Air Fuel Ratio become lean at full throttle the output of the map could be used to reduce wastegate duty or close the throttle on a turbocharged vehicle to lower the boost pressure and prevent engine damage, this is only one scenario, we have many other inputs and outputs for Custom Maps and many other safety features could be included, this is all down to the tuners imagination and the time he has available to develop the calibration.

Please see the link below for our Tuner newsletter showing the latest Phase 2 features, also please look at the YouTube links showing some of the special features in action.

I will absolutely be switching from Uprev to Ecutek. I have been in contact with John and just waiting for him to get back with me to make the switch.

EVOHUNTER · 08-20-2015, 12:16 PM

looks like Sebz wants to get me on the dyno before sunday,

they leave sunday, and don't want any unforeseen issues.

So im gonna try to get on in next few days!

On another note. I have everything ready to go with the car minus my ethanol content analyzer system and the manifold isn't bolted down yet.

I cant get to the bolts. I believe Evohunter said to use a EZ-red with flex head so I bought one, FOR $46 BUCKS, and there is no way it will work. Since it is not open ended it contacts the mani before it slips over the bolt head. Ive returned it.

So instead I have a different wrench on order. It is a ratcheting, open end style that uses a spring loaded jaw. If that doesn't work I will need to make my own tool out of some steel flat bar.

Did you receive your charge pipe??
