Wira ECU

[Tatsumaki]

Greeting to all SIFUs, Masters and every brothers and sisters here.

It's regarding to my Proton Wira 1.3 GLi ECU punya pasal. I've talked to my foreman just now when I changing the suspension at his workshop, I told him about the under-power matter of my tiny 4G13, I keep complain saja la...can't battle with people laa....pick-up kanasai laa...no top speed la....cannot win even an ori BLM la...and pla pla pla.....

And he said he can tune the ECU, means that he is be able to modify the ECU to make that tiny 4G13 output more power and shows some real bad-ass result on Pick-up and Lajak. Lebih kurang macam tipu ECU la tu. =D

So to everyone and SIFUs and Masters, is that any risks or problems I maybe face if I let him tipu my ECU? Will the ECU know that it get cheated and naik gile lepas tu condense??

I need advice on this. Thanks in advance guys! =)

wat years ur wira ?
vdo or mitsu ecu ?
whats mods have u done lately ?
doing ecu upgrade is after u done major internal mods thats ur current ecu cant cope
if stock standard everything really not much different

VDO one, stock standard not much power up one?

VDO? Don't bother touching it and Emanage not going to work with it.

Spend money on a bigger engine transplant or turbo charge. No matter how much he mods your ECU, it won't beat a displacement upgrade or a force induction mod.

sound interesting...
ask yr foreman how much it costs to 'tipu' the ecu..

 

[carlyap]

Izso i agree...... never bother on VDO engine...

Don't get me wrong... VDO is actually quite smart and that's good in a way but bad in a modification way since modifying it might not be successful.

I'm using a VDO and it has adapted to my mods quite well. I'm quite happy with VDO

 

[carlyap]

but compare mmc and vdo.. i much more prefer on mmc moldification.

Well that really depends on what you're modding and what you hope to achieve from it. In terms of flexibility MMC is the obvious choice. But VDO is suprisingly useful in some cases. There's a thread about a dude who did exactly the same mods on two separate cars that he owns, one a VDO and one MMC. MMC surprisingly is the one he's having problems with because of tuning.

Anyway, it really boils down to personal preference la. I like Koenigsegg you like Lambo, in the end both are bloody fantastic cars. Right?

How say it's QUITE SMART?

 

[klywh1]

vdo can relearn/readapt,auto retune with the simple engine mod like PnP head, mild cam full exhaust system or even a stroker kit but not extreme mod like 2 toto & 4 toto(u may need a piggyback ecu to assist) stock vdo ecu fuel map/AF ratio/iginition timing & blarrr have limitation. more air & more fuel more spark in the engine = more power IZso is 1 of them :p VDO susah to tipu 1 only standalone & few piggyback ecu in the market works well with VDO ecu like Unichip

 

[Izso]

klywh1 : Don't la humble. Your dual-throttle, stroked, super powerderful VDO Wira also had a good run before you installed that Unichip! You lagi power than me!

Hi everyone,

I really need advises from your guys. Currently I have a 4G13, 2006 model for my weekend ride have noticed that the car is lacking of power in pickup and take a longer time to reach 100km/h & above. My car is completely stock and recently just completed 40k km servicing with servicing of throttle body as well. Unlike my daily ride a Proton Savvy is very much more responsive as compared. So what could it be wrong with my 4G13? The performing seems getting worst. How do I reset the ECU? Is it remove the negative connector of the battery for a few minutes?

Please advise and I thanks in anticipation!

last time my Wira Se VDO also same thing...lightly modded, can play with MMC and 4g91. but i downgraded to 15"... lightened flywheel, racing cluth,iridiums, thicker plug cables,lightened crank pulley, k&N open pod, and sideplant exhaust. overall i was really happy with the performance...

the bad response started after the 40k service or beofre?

resetting the ecu, just remove the negative batt terminal like you mentioned.

The poor response is before the 40k servicing....sigh... really don't know what happened lor. My daily ride Proton Savvy has already hit 170K km and still very responsive. I hope by doing the ECU reset for my Wira would help.... I also thought of upgrading to 4G15.... now, what is what I also at a lost liao...
