sucks to hear wade.
Will be interesting to see if you can still use teh new loom (very handy) and get some sort of refund back from qpeng. Especially since the product (SEEMINGLY) isn't performing as it should. Have they offered to send out a new ECU at all? (incase your's is damaged etc)
Sucks to hear about this, hope it gets sorted! (without a big hole in your pocket too!)
no mate the wiring loom is not engine specific rater just generic but if the qpeng loom plugs straight in then your laughing
So how much you want dude?
....i have very good news
I cut my losses, had the Haltech platinum 500 wired in and fully tuned for $2200 within a day and a half!
I have not heard a peep from QPEng about some kind of compensation on return of their ECU.
I now have a much smoother running engine thats soooo much nicer to drive, and 243hp at the wheels!
We are running full sequential injector and ignition timing, and VVT using the QPEng loom, just with the Haltech brain wired to it! David at RPW said it was easy to do as haltech have ready made systems for 1.8t in the US and he has wiring diagrams for anyone who needs it.
So, anyone in Oz wanting to do the 1.8t swap in Australia that is reluctant to use the QPENG system for the problems with tuning and support, our prayers have been answered!
It's making more power on less boost, and the injectors are at full capacity so there's room for more revs and power if i get bigger injectors.
For now though, its wheelspin city so its enough power at the moment. I'm thinking after 18 months or 2 yrs, I'll convert to full syncro hahahaaa!
A few little jobs still to do tomorrow.
Pics soon
Me very happy:dancing_smilie:
243Hp is a great result wade and a big congrats on going down the haltech route, now you can get local support and easy tuning everytime you modify it. Not suprised on the quiteness from abroad once you mention the i'm sending it back so have my money ready! Now you just need a trick diff to put that power down and start loosing some kg from the her waist. Potent street car man, will have to see how she goes with a roll on on the mitchell some time :-)
well done Wade - it hurts when it doesnt succeed, but sweet when you finally sort it!
By trick diff you mean a Peloquin ATB?? Already installed my man;)Quote:
