Fs: Mp3 Ecu

[SpicyorangeMSP]

I helping my brother get rid of his MP3 ECU. SOLD! Thanks.

[Wykydtron]

Why when I have no money for it!!! Ugh onto you :P

[mx-p5]

Dang, i just let mine go for $200

I know this'll still sell!!

[ho bag]

Ill give you $200 for it :D


Then clone it and sell a bunch for the same price :D

[mx-p5]

just saying, i set josh up with a deal

This will sell for $325

[Yendor]

PM sent.

[JCell]

mp3 ecu = our only plug and run tunning device

[Flash5]

its true :( i really wish it wasnt, id love to have a tuned normal ecu that ran on regular.

[Circuit]

Ill give you $200 for it :D


Then clone it and sell a bunch for the same price :D

I'll give you $200 for your magical cloning device.

[ho bag]

I'll give you $200 for your magical cloning device.

Did you ever notice the EEC-V stamped on these ecus?

The tools to read and dump EEC (ford) ecus are cheap. Its nothing magical im just surprised no one on here though about it. My step bro has just about everything from his turbo stang to read these, dump the rom and copy them. The chip its self is cheap too.

Now tuning will be and issue. Once dumped we can compare tables to find the fuel and spark maps but other then that without the table maping its hard to do much else.

It's been thought of many times, i dont nkow how many threads or people there have been claimnig to clone the MP3 ECU and it still hasn't happened.

And the MP3's been out since, what, 01? 02? 8 years later and still no clones

So, free bump for a legit MP3 ECU!

+1

[danielschweer]

+2 but that would be awesome if it ever does happen. not so much for me and the people that already have them, but im sure a lot of people would be stoked

[JCell]

we need tesla's cloning machine from the prestige

[mx-p5]

and i'll be the one standing there with a gun to keep blowing em up to keep em rare

[Pyr0TeK]

What kind of performance gains would a regular 2.0L 2001 Pro like mine see with this ECU? I used to have a MSP but since I went N/A, it's like driving a slug running through a salt field! *grin*

[mx-p5]

It won't be any OMFG THIS IS AMAZING gains, but, it will give you a smoother power band and advanced timing requiring you to run 91 oct.

The MP3 also has a VTCS'less intake manifold, so, for the most gain, remove your VTCS and you'll be golden

As these cars go, each mod is another peice to the puzzle

This is a VERY good peice to have.

I just uninstalled mine, car went from wanting to pull up through 6k rpm , now, with stock it struggles to make it to 5k now


This is def. one of the better mods you can do.

[ho bag]

Agreed the #1 benifit is the timing advance.

[WRCprotege]

2nd that.. mine woke up the upper end the powerband, before taking the car over 6k felt like i was doing something wrong, forcing the motor to do what it clearly dosnt feel like doing.. with the MP3 ecu, the motor makes power beond 6k and beckons you to turn the rpm, making the car MUCH more fun to drive, which is the name of the game..the MP3 model i think was to make 140 hp vs the standard 130 hp.. plus with the more mods you have the more it helps..
bump for a great item to have.

[mx-p5]

Remember though, that the MP3 also had teh VTCS'less intake manifold

so, ECU alone won't net you that 10-12 hp

[SpicyorangeMSP]

Thanks for answer all the questions guys. This the best mod for NA beside turbocharging.

[br289165]

And a tuned exhaust.

Bump

[mx-p5]

only the axle back

midpipe and resonator to the axleback is the same on MP3 and Pro5, only difference is the dual catted midpipe on the MSP

[ho bag]

And thats only to make up for the placement of the precat.

I have that axel back on my car now, no difference in power but it does sound sexy.

[SpicyorangeMSP]

Ttt

[SpicyorangeMSP]

Morning Bump

[el_Don]

it's too bad that you can't switch out the ecu's regularly. like, put in the MP3 ecu for the weekend or autox, and then the stocker for the dd. if you could do that I would probably buy this.

[oem plus]

I has MP3 ecu too! If you get it just leave it in there. There is not enough power difference to keep swapping it in and out. You can tell you have a smoother power curve and more RPM's to play with. If your worried about the 93 vs 87 dollar difference (with 10g of gas there is only $2 difference), think about how many times you upsized your value meals at mcdonald's...LOL.

[mx-p5]

Good point!!

[el_Don]

true, but if it's sold for 200 before...

[mx-p5]

that was mine i sold, and to a local buddy of mine

Don't count on seeing them sell for $200 regularly

[SpicyorangeMSP]

true, but if it's sold for 200 before...

Come On el Don you got 3 bills laying around especially since I will be in Houston tomorrow.

[el_Don]

oh I didn't see that post till just right now.

I don't know....I'm trying to cut back and I don't think I can justify spending 300 bucks. Trying to get a better price. also, I was thinking about this:

right now, gas is pretty cheap. getting this ecu wouldn't be that much of a drain. last summer gas was 4 times as expensive. Is it possible to go back to my stock ecu if that were to happen?

[br289165]

Of course you can switch back, but u don't need to, you can run 87 octane with the MP3 ECU, it adjusts for the lower octane. But I must say gas was 2x the cost last summer, not 4x.

[el_Don]

well here it was from 1.60 to around 4.85. but you're right, prior to that, it would have been 2 some. I'm really interested, but I just want to make sure that i won't do damage by switching to regular every now and then. because that would suck

[mx-p5]

Nope, no damage in swapping, unless you don't wear gloves when you pull the metal plate out the ECU is on. If you don't, YOU will be damaged

[SpicyorangeMSP]

Yeah that plate is sharp!

[el_Don]

man i wish someone would buy this and take the temptation away.

[2k3 PrO RiDa]

hmm just curious...how much would you sell it for local? Im getting real tired of my brother teasing about how his mp3 feels so much smoother lol.

[WRCprotege]

for me to run 93, its 20cents a gallon more.. thats $2.50 more that reg fuel per full up.. i fill once a week..so about $10 a month
also you MPG will increase with the high oct fuel (if) your running the MP3 ecu.. mine did for sure,, it want much, but, it helped ,so really i pay about five buck more a month to have more power.. and my smiles per gallon are way up as well..lol

[blueprotegelx]

bump...i miss my ecu! i could definetely tell the improvement after i took it out and sold it. although i do miss it, turbo will be a much nicer upgrade! lol

Yeah I test drove my friends car with built motor and boost turned up and pulls good. He drove my P5 and said it was smooth.

[Circuit]

Bump! I can't believe this is not sold yet!

[SpicyorangeMSP]

Yeah monies must be tight but some should be getting tax money soon hopefully.

[el_Don]

Yeah monies must be tight

Understatement if ever there was one. I've wanted this ECU for pretty good while now. And here with the opportunity, I'm hesitant. I'm looking to another mod cheaper than this one hopefully that goes through and allows me to look away from this one. If not, I'll probably be back here. sigh

[ho bag]

Anyone want to loan me an mp3 ecu? We just did a dump of a mazda eec ecu :) placed it on another chip and it worked! muahahahaha

[el_Don]

then what happened to it?

[mx-p5]

IDEA- buy this MP3 ECU, then, if it works, keep this as the origional and sell the copies

[el_Don]

yea. Or like I said in that other thread, do a proof of concept.

[SpicyorangeMSP]

(2thumbs)

[ho bag]

sorry miss type, we did the ford one last night mazda is for tomorrow. And if tax time allows it i may grab this one if no one local will let me copy theres.

[2k3 PrO RiDa]

I just went up to the dealer tonight to look at the new 3 and the sales manager told me about someone he talked to that does reflashes locally. Forgot to ask if he had a number though(hand)

[el_Don]

wow a dealer told you that? I thought for sure they would try tomake money off of you by selling a new one

[2k3 PrO RiDa]

yep. He's trying to get the mod on his car as well.

[el_Don]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAA.

tell him about this one

[SpicyorangeMSP]

Bump

I'll believe it when I see it. Bump for the best P5 mod short of a turbo!

[ho bag]

Only the dealer can write directly to the ecu. The rest of us have to work around it... like me :)

Im still considering this ecu when tax comes back...shortly after there will be many :D

[SpicyorangeMSP]

Sold to the a guy up North. Thanks.
