link ecu

[jeff]

hi all

anyone with a Link installed care to chime in on the SOTP effectiveness of it ? I'll prob. be staying NA, and was wondering if the Link adds noticeable twinkle to the car, or if it's mostly for tuning...

I've already done intake, header, exhaust, +timing bump. Some big grins to be had there At this rate I can see myself soldiering thru a mild NA buildup rather than a turbo, but a Link looks to be useful either way.

At miataforum.com they mention it being a tedious install on post-95's due to OBD-II , I presume we don't have this problem ?

TIA !

Hi Jeff,

Easy peasy install, but you must buy the software that Flyin Miata has in the
USA if you want the best from it. You will be able to maximise the gains from
what you have installed on the car already, and if you want to go further
(cams) you will be able to. Both Fletch & I have Link, Header, Exhaust,
intake, port & polised head with higher compression, Fletch has also been
paying with cams. Once he has finished his playing I will have a good
reference for doing the cams on my car as well. I think Fletch's laptop showed
my car at a peak of about 105-110 hp and his at about 120hp at the rear wheel
when we compared at Pukekohe last year. Before all of this ours would both
have been at 90-95 ish.
