What ECM are you running?

[Mike Norris]

Here is what I posted on PT.com

I would say it really depends on the engine and trans combo.

For the LS1 and LS6 cars with a cable, a 2001-2002 Camaro works for me.

For LS1 and LS6 DBW, the a 2001-2004 Corvette.

For the later LS2, LS3 or LS7 DBW with a 4L60E, a 2006 GTO.

For a later LS2, LS3 or LS7 DBW with a manual, a 2007 Z06 Corvette for an NA car and for a FI car a 2009 LS3 Corvette.

For an LS2, LS3 or LS7 and a 6L80E it would be a 2008 G8 or a 2010 Camaro SS.

I personally try to keep away from the E67 and E40 ECM's.

A lot of different possiblities for sure.

Of course as far as aftermarket I prefer the FAST XFI and BS3. Looking at the Pantera to get a comparison as I have yet to use it and I should have one of the new Holley setups to work through before long. Actually trying to get to BG for a look through.

Hope that helps.

We are not building a new ecm. We are working on components that integrate with them. Ecm programming varies between makes so we are trying to find the most common to start with, and work from there

Are the 99-00 camaro ecms different from 01-02? I thought the 98 was the outlier of the group.

I have FAST XFI with my holley stealth ram and procharger.

I want to say they are interchangeable and are a viable option. The 01-02 operating systems have a few extras that I like to have.

The 97-98 PCM's are the ones to keep away from if you can. They work great for stock engines with normal bolt-ons, but more aggressive cams and forced induction can be a pain.

MOTEC or Haltech are two of the brands I recommend, Hands down there great system's and in this field you get what you pay for.

The GM computers Like the E38 ECMs are really good ECM's. There fail safe, and plentiful.

I'm running an Accel gen 7 and for quite awhile it was running me instead of me running it. Almost smashed it with a hammer and was going to post it on youtube so others could see someone taking their frustrations out on one for a laugh.
Then I called and talked to Eli and he said he would make it right for me. After It got checked out and a new up to date board installed I now have a unit that works. They actually are trying to change the image they have gotten and the tech help is getting better when you call. Dave got right back to me when I called the other day and had the right answers and gave me further protocols if needed.

I am a lot happier camper and as long as the wideband helps me tune a lot easier and had better control of the A/F ratios I do believe I will have something I was promised to begin with, even though there is a lot easier stuff to work with out there now it is still a good unit to control what I am doing I am told.

There is going to be even bigger changes in the next 6 months to come out than what is available now from what I have heard thru the grapevine, but what it will be is going to be a surprise.
