Part 3: 4A-GE ECU Upgrade - Road Tune vs Dyno Tune Showdown!

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ธ.ค. 2020
  • In this episode, I put my road tune up against the tuner. The Atom X is installed and working well with the 4A-GE. I spent two weeks driving and recording runs to get as good a road tune as I could get without blowing up the motor. The tuner will then use the dyno to see how much more power there was to unlock.
    The Link ECU is a solid option for the 4A-GE. The original ECU's are getting old and can suffer from aging related issues such as blown capacitors. A Link ECU is a modern solution that also comes with a good bump in performance.
    Which do you think will make more power, the road tune or dyno tune?

  • @ToreDL87
    @ToreDL87 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I say job well done in how you managed to tune it within 5hp of a professional tuner! Those few extra ponies will definitely come in handy.
    Especially with that 15hp bump about 3/4 way up the revs, for what you're doing it's a much appreciated addition.
    And similarly so is the case for anyone doing the same thing as you!
    All in all it's welcome information for a lot of 4A-GE enthusiasts.
    I'da gone aftermarket ECU but the ECU+adapter/wiring are usually around 1500 for 20v's (Just checked MRP and I was pretty much dot on).
    But that's to be expected, the issue is the additional 500-750 tune which I have a hard time justifying up against the extra few ponies.

  • @Geoffvader

    Super exciting to follow your content man! My AE111 will be getting a tune soon too! Tomei Poncams, HKS 4-1 long runner headers and a 2.25 inch exhaust system. Strongly recommend the cams! Keen to see the FXGT tear up the AutoX/track again ;)

    • @sushpants

    Hey Sushpants
    How did you guys install the knock sensor with the purple wire? I thought the blacktop 20v had it's own knock sensor or is that one not accurate enough for the ECU?
    Also now it's time to install cams and see how much power you gain.

    tbh I think that you have wasted a lot of money on ITBs if your car only made 135 bhp with such a good exhaust system and a free flow air intake, that engine is worth 135 bhp without ITBs. Perhaps if you had wild CAMs installed then ITBs may be worth investing in.
