ABY Exhaust cam with RS2 set up

[orsum]

Ecu

Hi prj,

Can I just remove my ABY ECU, remove the two chips, fit two IC base and then just plug the two reprogrammed IC's or is there more to it than that.

(I am very capable of doing electronic work)

I would rather purchase two chips than post my ECU half way around the world and trust the postal service to keep it safe.

Plus I have the additional benefit of retaining the original IC's.

Driftin what kind of setup you using on your engine?? You got an aby or adu???

It's an ABY with RS2 turbo, RS2 exhaust manifold and RS2 injectors, everything else
is stock.

There is more to it, resistor change and sensor change.
If you can do SMD soldering and through-hole desoldering, I could send you MAP sensor, resistor and instructions.
I am not looking for support nightmares though...

And jo what power output you getting

[driftin jo]

Actually I do have a better fuel pump as well just to be safe, the stock ABY fuel pump once old and tired is probably not up to the job.

And jo what power output you getting

It's 370hp on a hot day, a little more when it cool.

Would the rs2 fuel pump be suitable???

yes.

[Drummer87]

Nice. That's good then, got one of them. Now need the rest. Is there a turbo like the rs2 that is similar that might not have been ragged as much???

Also standard clutch able to take that power?

I agree support nightmares are not good.

I am not like that, if I do it and I make a mistake its my problem anyway SMD is one that I do not do I am old school.

Will pm you

I have a Sachs motorsport pressure plate and sintered disc with a single mass flywheel, but there are plenty of people running tuned RS2 power with the stock ABY clutch.
