    Default Haltech E8 - Just read if u know about ECU's

    SO .... after driving my car to work for a week and trying to road tune this SAFC + stock management on my bigport 4a 16v - its running massivly rich, gettting like 300 km's out of a tank and all the low throttle settings below 3.5 k are crap house and it just bogs down and has now power unless u floor it. any way im over it!.. it still runs well but im just not happy with it! i just like things right.

    SO.. i have a Haltech E8 thats had some serious time on the dyno running a 20V turbo.. anyway

    this is what i want to know.. does anyone know if i can save those settings currently on the E8 for later on.. somehow, then tune it for the 16v and then get those settings for the 20v turbo re installed for when i go to use it on that engine again? i just dont want to loose the tune that is on the E8 ATM! i dont wanna use what i have and not have to buy another ECU when i have agreat on in my garage and a loom ready to rock

    Hi mate

    I think you can have a couple of maps in a Haltech ECU,
    not sure as I've never got set up an E8 yet.
    Give Haltech Tech line a call and they can help you out with
    your quiries mate.

    load halwin 1.71.
    go to online mode.
    go to file and save maps and save the map on ya pc.

    close the halwin and to make shaw it all saved load halwin again and load up your saved map to see if its there.

    or

    once youve wired it up and trucked it to your tuner, ask him to save the current map.

    Simon at Macgreggor Mechanical [ph 3349 6075] did my Silvertop / Haltech - nice job, and he certainly seems to know what he's talking about.

    The bit about saving maps described above is spot on as well. Whenever you change anything, just save a copy onto your PC / laptop so that if the next thing you change mucks everything up, you can simply re-load the previous map. Just name them somehow so you know what was special about each one.
