ECU Upgrade

The previous write-up on the ECU upgrade has been removed!!

ADDENDUM (2/2000):

With knowledge know learned from our experiences, we have found that an ECU upgrade is NOT necessary to increase the boost on your Elan!!

The factory ECU has inherent in it the fuel/spark/timing maps needed to run the boost up from 0.65 Bar to 0.95 Bar without modification.

All that is needed to increase the boost is a boost controller.  Please see the boost controller write-up for further discussion.

In fact, we have no knowledge that doing the ECU upgrade ("Superchip" or "BBR") even changes ANYTHING with the ECU.  I encourage input from any ECU Upgrader out there to prove otherwise--but I doubt we will hear from them.

Write me if you have any questions--I just don't want you to waste your money on the chip upgrades since they are NOT necessary.

Happy Elan-ing, Doug
