RX8 Piggyback ECU
Ric Shaw Performance in Australia has now developed a fully adjustable piggyback ECU for the RX8, operating with a windows software package to retune the engine management. It also caters for turbo charged and super charged conversions.

Ric,
How soon are you willing to ship to the US? I really like the fact that it is adjustable via Windows. Also, is it a clip on unit or do you have to spice wires to install?
Thanks

Your saying that the times are better as we can see? 0 to 100 kph is 62 mph as you know. Your time of 6.43 is .5 off of what Mazda says is their 0 to 60 time. Canzoomer says times of 5.4 to 5.6 could be obtainable with his mod.
Thankx.
Thankx.
