hi
I have an audi 90 fitted with a 1.8t (aeb) running me3.8.3 ecu from a golf gti (agu). it was running with a t28 and bigger maf/injectors @1bar boost (mbc) etc and ran great with original file 275bhp/310ftlb according to rolling road.
anyway I have moved onto a holset hx35 turbo, the engine will be getting built to withstand it and more revs.
my question is does anybody tune this ecu for big turbos such as holsets/gt30 or do people change it for later me7.5?
i'm happy to get the equipment together to log everything but don't know where to start on mapping side of things.
thanks in advance

I think this ECU work very good for tuning.. I have tuned this with a GT35.. 1300cc E85.. 4" MAF.. But Me7.5 is better i think.. you have more options.. but.. m3.8.3 works for what i need the car to do..

You've tuned it but couldn't find rev limiter? Seriously?

I have no logs because I have a boost gauge (makes things easier)

Search a little bit better this forum and you will be able to get the basic information and basic maps for starting on this car..There are a lot of threads and actually you will fine some definitions here that will much your ecu with some work...

A small tip since you are going to do it yourself be very very carefull with the maf as your fueling will mostly depend on that.
Either replace and reconfigure(rescale) or go for an me7.5 swap.
