Default Programmable ECM

Here's a quick question. I have searched a bit and will still search for an answer to my question.

Is there a fully tunable ECM available for the TPI engines? My background is mainly lately model fuel injection and imports. So I am used to simply replacing the ECM/ECU and completely tuning it per my needs via dyno or track.

Is there anything out there for the TPI engine like this?

Accel, FAST, and BS3, along with some of the other less often mentioned tuners. For waht you are requesting, make sure you check the wbO2 option.

Excellent. Thank you. For some reason I didn't think to search directly. I used FAST parts all the time.

There are real time emulators out there also that will be cheaper and probably do a better job than those $2000 over priced ecms. Check out moates .net and the ostrich, also RT tuner which is a real time tuner when used with the ostrich. Very cool and affordable plus no hacking and repinning then massive tuning to get a end product that will work extremely well. Don't forget that mass airflow just makes sense over map. Just as a side note I think the company is called Massflo efi they use massflow air sensor only and it is pretty slick and simple.

Haltech makes a plug & play for the C4, but it's rather pricey.

The chip on your car can be reprogrammed, as stated, it's just a matter of burning a chip.
