Have a 2008 G37 and wish you had a 2009+ so you can enjoy all that EcuTek goodness?
 
Well there might be some good news!

Yesterday I had one of my local 2008 G37 guys come in, we swapped in a 2009+ ECU... Took a little bit to figure out which ROM would work in both the ECU and the car, but in the end I got the car running with no fault codes!

The custom is going to come back in a few weeks for the tune - I'm super pumped about this.

I'll update this thread as I learn more

Visconti mentioned that the EcuTek can utilized the OEM display and feature A/F via the OEM display and exhibit Boost control directly from Ecutek.

Visconti can you shed some light on the prerequisites that are required to enable the Boost control feature via the stock interface (ECU) instead of some third-party Boost Controller???

And do we need a MAC 3 Port Boost Control Solenoid - Haltech, AEM, etc????

I've simply just re-posted what EcuTek had announced in their news letter.

If you have questions about this please post it in another thread - this thread is only for discussing running a newer ecu in a older car

Thanks

So basically you don't know now how to enable these features, Great. Yet it's marketed. Freaking awesome.:icon14:

Frandy 08-05-2015 12:16 AM

I'm interested in this as well. Any current updates on this?

visconti 08-07-2015 09:12 AM

So got the car back into the shop and ran into some problems

EcuTek is looking into it

John

Frandy 08-11-2015 03:44 PM

Would you care to elaborate on those said issues? I'm very interested in how this goes.

Don't bother, he told me ask ecutek. Ecutek says they can't do it.

I'm working on a solution though

hooey_b 02-01-2016 10:18 AM

found a solution. should be working hopefully by the end of the year

elperuano 02-02-2016 06:36 AM

It's January..... :/

hooey_b 02-02-2016 09:33 AM

I just dropped $$$ on 1200cc FIC injectors, aeromotive 450 pump...

I didn't think that I'd find the solution anytime soon; I had planned on the solution coming sometime around July. After I get the fuel stuff, it'll be the ECM (~$200-$250), then Ecutek ($~750).

I can only do so much lol

warpeacelove 02-11-2016 03:18 PM

John is to much of a Superstar to answer. He forgot about the small people as ourselves, so much so that you can't even get him on the phone nor does he has a voice mail that is setup therefore you can't leave a message if you wanted to.

As for Face Book Messenger he chooses when he wants to talk. I guess when he is not ovulating.

However when you do get a whole of him and are able to establish appointment with him it doesn't mean much as he doesn't always follow-through on his word. This is from my experiences with this fellow tuner. My advise is to stay clear of this fellow and can provide ample proof of his unprofessional-ism but not yet. Either way stay away from him but at the end of the day he or she is responsible for their own choices.

hooey_b 06-17-2016 05:04 AM

For the G37 guys looking for an answer, as long as you DON'T have a 5AT, here's your solution. I have yet to travel this path, but I do intend on doing it later.

Although I know this thread is in reference to G37s, has anyone heard that ecutek won't work in some very early production 2009 370Zs? I have an 09 and have an appointment next week for tuning. The shop told me that some early 09s don't have enough RAM to support Ecutek. They will have to determine if this is the case for my Z after I arrive. If it's the case with my car, my only option will be Uprev.

Anyone have any info on this? My car was produced in June 2009.

On ecutek's website under "supported vehicles" is says "2009 to date". Nothing referencing later production models.
