Cute paper weight.
But seriously, hope it's a quick and easy fix whatever it is

How long to go now Simon? Patiently waiting to see the final result of this beast.

As soon as we sort this ecu trouble out, Robbie!

Well not much to report unfortunately (as per usual!).
Managed to track down an ECU from America, which I have sent to United Motorsports. Hopefully they don't **** this ECU. Dealing with them has been like pulling teeth. Would be going with a different tuner if I had my time and money over again. They might be fine for the local guys in America, but safe to say, they don't care about customer service for overseas clients at all /rant.

In other news, managed to pick up a MFD from grtuned while I was up at GAD for the weekend. Really nice guy to deal with.
Will swap the Alpine Dual din DVD player currently in this car, into my Black V5. Everybody wins!

Installed some 334mm 2 pot R32 brakes with brake cooling ducts last weekend. Also fitted my 17x8 et35 Oz wheels with Kuhmo semi slicks.

I think one of us (probably me) needs to drive across and compare our two builds. Bet you wont find much difference ha ha! Least im not the only one having ECU issues however yours sounds a bit more serious then mine. I'm surprised at UM causing you issues. They were good when i was dealing with them even shipped my ecu back for free.

Nothing as bad as your's. Struggling to get the cable to read to map so i can send it off for adjustments. Since mine is the coil pack version UM couldn't tune it and I've only found one person who can. Ordered 2 more cables to hopefully show it was a faulty cable.

Convert it to the later version like Simon , then you'll have more options
