Hi James
Late 2 will be the flashtune ECU,if they do have the NNN prefix ECU and it is manual Im willing to put my ECU into theirs for a test drive.It would have to be during the Xmas/new year break when Im home.
They would have to come down here,I have the Nannocom to sort the coding out.
Andrew
Cheers Andrew
it's an auto. I'll give them the info and leave them to it.

Td5 Alive(in the UK) can upgrade "non-flashable" ECU's, (in the UK) via post, and does a bloody good job too. Very happy with mine.
Do you mean replace your non flasher with a re-mapped flashable or do they send you a remapped non flashable unit?Quote:

If I have a reprogrammable ECU (NNW*****), is it worth getting it remapped if I'm not doing any other mods?
I understand if I was getting a larger intercooler/exhaust, a remap would be necessary. But if my D2 is stock, is it worth it?
I do a lot of towing/touring, so a bit more mid-range would be nice...
If it is worthwhile, can anyone recommend someone in SE Qld who could do this?

a stock D2 will still benifit from the upgrade, its the egr/main muffler mods that you can do afterwards that put the icing on the cake so to speak.
cheers phil
Any TD5 will benefit from an upgrade.
Other mods set in place both gains in performance and also longevity to the vehicle....
A stock TD5 with an mapping upgrade will still be a much better vehicle than the original vehicle.
Sorry about the dumb questions...Quote:

Does this make sense?
Do you still do this Tombie2? Do you have someone in SEQld doing it on commission??
