Able to remap the ECU yet ?

[Simon H]

Hi Chaps,
Has anyone been able to crack the ECU code yet for remap, or is it only piggy back ECUs being used ?, i didnt think anyone had cracked it yet ?, thankyou, regards, SIMON.

AC Schnitzer do a piggy back with warranty and top speed increase, DMS offer a remap (no warranty) for £2500 + vat I believe.

Nobody has cracked it and no ac dies not increase the limiter. If so we all would have jumped on it.

AC Schnitzer HAS cracked the speed limiter. Their M6 GC did a verified 320km/h at Nardo (the trans limiter kicks in at 320km/h). Also PP Performance has cracked the speed limiter (but not the trans limiter at 320km/h AFAIK).

The ACS delimited top speed is possibly only available for the cars without the 155MPH limiter though...

I've been told by a tuner friend that Eurocharged offer an ECU tune. It's also on their website.

It's available for cars with the M Driver's pack:

I know the tune is available for 155MPH limited cars, but the top speed delimit might not be. If you look in your link you will see that the quoted top speed of 305km/h is marked with **, meaning a car with M-drivers package.

However they have now achieved 320km/h, not sure why they don't market it though...

Ok I didn't know acs broke the speed limiter. I stand corrected.

I looked it up also. They claim to have a software flash delivered through the OBD2 port. According to their dyno comparison, it delivers about 55 peak hp at the wheels. It's about 60% of the cost of the Dinan Stage 1 box, and delivers about 60% of the gain. Not bad, and nice that it's a pure software solution.

Given the choice though, I'll likely stick with Dinan for the warranty and the ability to drive it to the dealer without worry. Also, Dinan raised the ratings since the last time I looked, and opened it up to Comp Package cars. It's now a more compelling overall package.

Waiting for someone who has the Dinan box to write a review. My SA says the dealership is still waiting for the boxes.

Who is your dealer? Classic?

[Hawkeye1]

Yes. Yours also? Same story?

The increased top speed comes from the M Driver's pack, the ACS performance upgrade gives you 620hp whether the car is limited to 155 or 190. The Nardo car had all the safety features switched off to achieve that speed, so this isn't something that could be sold to the public.

The M Driver's pack is available in Europe and the UK through ACS.
