#MULTI TUNE LS ECU PLUS#

The typical cost for an MS1, assuming you buy it in complete kit form from DIYAutoTune, is about $200, plus an extra few bucks for connectors and random parts. Well, the cost factor hinges greatly on your own level of comfort and confidence working around electronics and computers.įor instance, my own personal cars have always used MS1 ECUs. Okay, I will have to do some digging into the piggyback and standalone systems, but I always hear horror stories about the cost of those systems, so I immediately steered away in the interest of budget. It cannot read MAP in any way, the stock MAF does not have sufficient headroom to deal with higher levels of boost/power, it does not have a provision for reading a wideband exhaust gas sensor, it does not have a comprehensive datalogging suite, etc. I personally would not consider it for a number of reasons:ġ: It sounds like a real pain in the butt to me.Ģ: Even discounting the cost of multiple trips to the dyno, the baseline cost of this service alone ($695) exceeds the cost of a fully programmable standalone ECU (eg, MS3) plus a wideband O2 sensor.ģ: As with a piggyback solution (such as Xede, Powercard, etc), there are some finite limitations when dealing with the stock ECU on a forced-induction engine. You then dyno it, note changes to be made, mail the ECU back to them, they modify it and mail it back to you, you re-test it, mail it back for fine-tuning, etc.įor some people, this is an attractive approach. Essentially, the process here is that you physically mail your ECU to them, along with a description of your engine, they take a 'best guess' at the tune, load it into the ECU, and send it back to you. There is one company, Dynotronics, which offers a static re-flash service for most years of the Miata ECU, and their services are offered through both Bell and FM. To the best of my knowledge, no solution exists which allows the end-user to dynamically tune any stock Miata ECU in real-time, such as while on a dyno. But can a Naturally Aspirated NB be tuned?

(.) if it is possible to Dyno-tune a 2002 Miata LS automatic, or any NB for that matter, I heard that the MSM ecu's can't be tuned, and hence why most people resort to a Hydra-nemesis or a piggyback.
