Best ecu? jwt ash or z1

[gsrteg]

which is the best from safety to power to reliability?
i like the z1 alot because of the price but whats your opinions guys?
thanks - Nick

None of those, IMO, specialty Z.

[vulcanrush]

call specialtyz or harry at ztuner and until you can get it on a dyno, keep the boost to a reasonable amount.

[aroche25]

Call Harry @ztunner, he does awesome work, but JWT is always good too.

[gsrteg]

im not payig for a dyno right now which is why i plannned on getting a tuned chip already

and that's fine, what i meant was, don't turn up the boost with a "chipped" (off-the-shelf) ecu

[BigTDogg (MA)]

Turn it up, but not past 14psi.

SZ or Ztuner offer the best OTS chips, IMHO.

[300ZXttZMAN]

I agree with the comments here.. I suggest you call SZ up.

[H1tman]

I agree as well. if you want power and reliability, a generic chip isnt your best option.

Keep in mind you get what you pay for.

to compliment the OP and not threadjack...

would it matter if i was running stock injectors, popcharger, ebc, godspeed smics if i put in a different chip? or does it only matter if you're stacking bwhp ?

need more clarity, what is the "different chip" programmed for?
obviously, you would want the different chip to be programmed for your stock fuel injectors, that's the most important setting, imo.
the intercoolers aren't as significant.

Call Harry @ztunner.

well let's just say for arguement sake that a Z is stock, would there be any benefit replacing the oem eprom chip if you were looking to get more horsies?

[itsa300zx]

Yes, up the boost a bit (<13 psi) for more power and the off the shelf tune can compensate with more fuel. ie typical stage 3 TT upgrade.

[Oh Em Zee]

I vote SZ.

[StockTurbosFTW]

I also say SZ...but of the ones you mentioned, Ashspec makes good products...also the JWT one isn't bad. That is the one I have right now.

I'm pretty sure injectors are the most important setting. When you buy injectors from a retailer they normally send a chip with them.

i agree, Mark, he was asking if it mattered if he was running stock fuel injectors when he puts in a different chip....just make sure the chip is aligned with his injectors.

i wouldn't run an aspec tune in my car.
i have his intercoolers (bell cores, anyway), and i'm sure he makes great intercooler pipings, but there are better tuners.

got specialty z ecu and 740cc phase 2 injectors, thanks for everything guys.

what are 740cc phase 2 fuel injectors, i hope you got the nismo ones?

I think he means new style. Phase two is the Nissan term for new style. Phase one is gangnam style

[gsrteg]

yessir nismo 740c aand yeah new style. phase 2 = New Style
