As far as supply and install, its easier to call ASG and get a straight answer to all the tech q's

[QUOTE=SilentKilla]Does ASG supply or tune link g3?

How much are they usually worth tuned for gc8 sti?[/QUOTE]


prolly wont be any good to ya now, but i paid around $3300 for the G3 and tune.

Quick question also, is it simple to enable antilag ? is it a matter of just getting the car tuned again?

I know, could of bought a Motec for that......

DarkMoose 03-01-2008 03:29 PM

Would have cost alot more to tune to motec too ^^. 3300 brand new plus a full tune, seems reasonalbe, wasn't like he was remapping the stock ecu.

I am currently running 440 cc injectors and am proposing to increase to Sti pinks 565 cc .
My current map has been fine for my set up .
VF22 ,enlarged inlet,twin dump exhaust, FMIC , Link ecu.
I believe I need to reduce fueling to accommodate the bigger injectors -which will deliver 28% more fuel with the current map.
Can I just reduce all the 96 fuel zones by 28% so that over fueling wont occur ?
OR will I require a complete remap?

Rossco 14-07-2015 09:36 PM

You can reduce the overall tuning by 25% as a starting point, but I'd remap just to be sure.

Alternately increase your fueling by another 2% and run E85 :)

expat1945 17-07-2015 05:40 PM

After your post Rossco I am going the E85 route .
So bigger injectors-seems Sti pinks are not big enough ,fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator , a remap and a tank of E85.
My VF22 , FMIC etc will be fully utilised yeah?
Not worried about economy .

Its a Possum Link installed over 10 years ago by MaximumMotorsport , so I don't expect flex fuel will be resident.

Damo69 19-07-2015 11:56 AM

flex fuel is the best do recommend

Defiantly no flex fuel , unfortunately in WA with limited supply you need to make a choice . Either stay BP98 and keep the good old possumlink, Tune for E85 and store it at home and do fuel runs to be able to use constantly on the car, or move on to a newer ecu. The Possum Link was a great bit of kit , but compared to the latest ECUs its like a Iphone 3 vs an iphone 6.

Not only do you get the option of flexfuel with most new ECUs but the resolution in mapping , coldstart , individual cylinder correction , Wideband support, and the ability with sensors to monitor and safeguard your motor and ancillaries .

Good luck starting on E85 on a cold morning with a Possum Link as well . There comes a time when you need to write down the pros and cons on a piece of paper , unfortunately your 10 year old Possum Link is more like 20 Year old technology. Even though it might do the job it just isn't in the same league as current ECUs.

Your car may run 12s or whatever on a possum link but with more ability to monitor and control an engine with the new ECUs your kidding yourself if you think you wont have gains upgrading , no matter how many engines you have run on it. The ability to monitor EGTs oil pressure and temp , Fuel pressure , Wideband lambda , barometric pressure , and knock enable the tuner to push the motor closer to its limit safely . Also setting up correction tables to save your motor when factors change and vary out of preset limits.

May be time to look at new engine management Vi-Pec , Link G4 , Haltech , Adaptronic ,AEM , Motec and the new Microtech range all offer Flex fuel . Some are cheaper than others and some offer different features . Talk to your tuner or one that you wish to use and see what they like using . Explain to them what you want to achieve and then make a decision .

In the long run you will save yourself time and money upgrading from a Possum Link.
