Its about $470 usd. Which is less than Im probably gonna end up paying for a DSMlink and new ecu.


My point is..you could buy an Evo 5/6 ecu for less than half of that...if your handy..you can rewire yourself and bam you have an ecu that is tunable, and will do just as much as the Apexi.
That way you dont need to pay for ecu AND ecmlink...

evo-gsr, no I dont comprende. Because the ecus im seeing for sale on fleabay are around 150usd (low end, up to 300). Plus the cost of the ecmlink: 425, brings it to 575. Which, if my math is correct, Is higher than 470.

The evo5-6 ecu dont need ecmlink. They are tunable as is.
Afaik they use evoscan/ecuflash to tune them, like the evo 7-9. You buy a evoscan cable and a ecuflash license.

Isnt that a ayc ecu, so for the diff? If its ayc, then not suitable.
be aware e8mr ecu has wierd ass plugs like a e9. That will add expense and bothers. Some e8 have plugs like you have got.
