    While pulling a motor out of a wreck i bought, i noticed to my delight :greenbounce: , that it was running a MINES ECU.

    Ive never herd 'MINES' and ae86 in the same sentence before, so was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these ECU's.

    are they tunable in Oz, or is it only good for the engine it has been running?

    is MINES as secretive with there mapping as HKS???? <_<

    Well I know the MINEs z32 ECUs weren't tunable... they were basically just a more aggressive tune with a bonus extra of all of the limits removed... and in some it did mean ALL of the limits (rev limiter too )
