Default Fresh engine

Paul, Merv

Yes it is a fresh engine so the plan is still to get back on the road and drive as soon as life lets me - read now another 4 - 6 month delay. The specialist admitted yesterday that I total ruptured my achilles!!

However it doesn't stop me planning future stages.

The std Ford ECU can be chipped I also gather but the ECU itself is quite limiting for manipulation and tweaking. I guess as a first cheaper step this might be a way to go though.

Still a nice Haltech, Motec, Autronic, Wolf.... whatever would offer improved tuning flexibility. Hence the question as to what is suggested.

Did I mention a nice tuned exhaust is on the list too. So each change needs and ECU tweak and it might just all end up cheaper using an aftermarket ECU than chipping each time.

Lots of time to plan now.

Cheers

Steve
