Who are ProECU Tools for ?

ProECU Tools have been designed with the professional tuner in mind. Those familiar with engine management will find the software intuitive,and a pleasure to use. Written by tuners for tuners,ProECU Tools is the software that we at EcuTek use to produce our performance ECUs.

This product is available to the commercial tuner only and is not supplied to individuals

How is the ECU reprogrammed ?

To reprogram the ECU,the EcuTek programming interface is simply plugged into the diagnostic socket of the car. Any of the ECUs listed above can then be reprogrammed in under 2 minutes !

Unlike other ‘chipping’solutions,ProECU Tools,require no soldering and no physical access to the ECU –an altogether quicker,cleaner and more reliable method of tuning. Rather than spending time soldering and desoldering hair thin chip legs,the tuner’s time can now be spent more productively,with less time spent soldering and more time actually improving mapping of the customer’s car.

Once an effective map has been produced for a particular combination of modifications,further identically mapped ECUs may be rapidly produced. This is extremely useful for companies who wish to package a premapped ECU with their exhaust manifolds or turbo/FMIC kits.

Why Reprogram the Original ECU ?

  • Reprogramming the original ECU is by far the cleanest,safest and quickest way of correctly compensating for engine,induction and exhaust modifications. The maps in the standard ECU may be adjusted to cater for virtually any modifications that are likely to be made to a car.
  • Civilised features such as cold start and stable idle are all retained,whilst performance mapping begins from the (already extremly good) standard Subaru map rather than from a blank sheet of paper.
  • Risky boost clamps,bleed valves,boost controllers and piggy back modules may all be discarded and replaced by a pure and accurate mapping adjustment.
  • The safety features of the ECU are retained,such as sensor checks,fuel cut,boost cut,rev limit,speed limit and ‘limp home’mode,though they may be altered to suit the car and its modifications. E.g. if the ECU detects a problem (engine over-temperature or failed sensor),it is still in full control of boost pressure and is able to take evasive action to preserve the engine. This is in stark contrast to external controllers and piggy back modules that either take over control of engine functions,or fool the ECU about the state of its sensors.

Features

Tuneable Parameters

The following ECU parameters may be altered using ProECU Tools:

  • Fuelling and Fuel Compensation.
  • Ignition Timing and Ignition Compensation
  • Boost Pressure
  • Boost Limit
  • Turbo Dynamics
  • Boost Pressure Based Speed Limiting
  • Minimum and Maximum Wastegate Duty Cycle
  • Rev Limit
  • Air Flow Sensor Scaling

Graphical Map Views

All 2d and 3d maps may be viewed graphically for fast interpretation of map shape. This also allows errors to be quickly spotted. The example below shows a fuel map that is being viewed graphically,to show the spectrum of air/fuel ratios used by this ECU.

Live Map Access View (Subaru Only)

Whilst testing the car,either on the road or dyno,access to fuelling,ignition and boost maps may be viewed in real time to show which parts of the map are being accessed by the ECU. ProECU Tools will also colour the zones of the fuelling or ignition maps based on the knock correction and lambda values retrieved from the car under test. This provides a new level of diagnostic ability,and allows the tuner to quickly see which areas of the map require attention.
