What! a map ecu just goes "okay i'll target no.5 piston and turn it into toast" i can't even believe you wrote that. Did you not even consider that maybe the fuel injectors weren't flowing accurately or some other possible scenario? How the #$#$$# hell does a piggyback discriminate against cylinders? If it's been pushed on a dyno and had failure it just tells me it already had a weak spot.
A map ecu for a basic install uses a couple of earth wires, a power wire, one wire connects to the tacho,one goes to afm/vkf, tps (optional), and one to the oxy sensor.Now please tell me how it can possibly single out a cylinder without there already being a weak spot in the first place.
My guess is that customers are coming in with a car that's either half rooted already or has poor flowing injectors and says to the good tuner "I'd like 450 rwhp please, everyone else has it" and then the poor tuner gets stuck with a POS that is a touchy at high boost as a 100 yr old hand grenade.
Like i originally said up until you need to pull timing the map ecu can be very useful, after that go standalone.(i need a drink):aigo:

I can take a joke just fine, you were just being a dick. I don't have a chip on my shoulder, just stating what I have dealt with, and seen from the Map Ecu on the 7M. That's all.

You guys have fun!

How exactly does a hardware fault in the Map ECU target a single cylinder on a waste fire ignition engine?

You've posted this same misinformation in quite a few posts without any explanation, if you can't back it up with some facts STOP doing it.

As for me being a "dick" I was joking posted a pic I thought was a funny play on words as posted above YOU took it as something else and deleted your posts after making a personal attack on me.

Do this again and you'll get a few weeks off to think it over, in the past I've been lenient when you've shot your big mouth off taking any provocation into account but that stops now.

thread restored.

Cool, maybe I was wrong on the targeting cylinder; it was just a coincidence as to which one went. But... they still fail. I'll let my friend who owns the shop know about this thread and he will come in with the facts. I just know that two cars came in with melted pistons on the #5 cylinder due to faulty map ecus.

This will be good.

Locking it up. This thread contains absolutely no useful info for the OP.

To the OP i suggest you look in the dyno thread in the stickies to see if you have a similar combo to anybody. See what #s they're putting down and compare your goals.
