Can someone please send me the software so I can put it on my computer to use this controller and update it!! Audioxinc4@gmail.com

Do u need ecutek for this?

Pardon my ignorance as I am trying to plan upgrades specifically for my GTR but…. if I decide to get this device where the car is currently stock and I add this, do I have to make any upgrades within the transmission such as the clutch?

likely but I'll let someone else more knowledgeable chime in here on this one.

I believe it works on both Cobb and Ecutek.

If you bought it from Ben send him an email.

No, clutch upgrade is not necessary for this.

thanks.

What I'm liking about it the most is that you can make some kickass maps to do just about anything you want to do based on throttle input , steering angle, brakes , speed Etc.

You can mess with one of those or all of those attributes if you like. I drifted my car yesterday for the first time ever through an intersection totally on accident because I forgot I was running my drag map which is full rear wheel drive when throttle input is less than 60%. I just floored it and at 70% it goes to full four wheel drive so it just pulled me right out of it. Felt cool. Probably looked cool he should sue them for anybody chilling at the intersection.

Ha yup had mine on map 2 today and drifted around a turn pretty good

okay Lambo Joe that's it...I want a ride in this car.

The controller is in and working like a charm. It was very easy to install and Program. Ben Linney is a mad scientist with the new maps. I have not run them at full potential and have been running DD on his new map 2 which is awesome. I will be putting the rest of the maps to the test at the drap strip soon enough including some fun burnouts to warm up the slicks.

So is anyone running this on stock tranny and stock ets?

 

[UKGTR]

Does this work with Syvecs ECU ?

thanks. If so, then dont mind looking into a few mods within the transmission.

So if you have "advanced traction control" from ecutek how does this controller work with ecutek ? Does it overwrite ecutek. Or ecutek controls traction and the awd controller only controls the amount of power transfer to the front wheels

There are three separate things. ECM, TCM, AWD. Some of the info about steering angle, braking, slip goes to the AWD to decide how much torque to send to the front wheels. But the AWD controller does NOT perform any traction control itself. It can only react to *if* there is slip by adding more front wheel torque.

This AWD controller works with any ECM/TCM - stock, cobb, ecutek, etc...

Looks like Gyoja already answered your question. Awd controller works independently of the TCM so it works side by side.

Thanks. this is next on my list.
How are you setting it up to when drag/launching the car?
What percent of transfer? Do you set it up by gear or speed?
I'm assuming that in low gears/ low speed/launch there is greater chance of wheel spin but once wheels grip or you reach certain speed you can allow more transfer to front wheel

The AWD controller has a "startup" mode to control how much torque to send to front on launch, so you can set that however you like. The percent of transfer is also configurable based on speed, throttle angle, steering angle, slip and braking. The way I have it setup (and have been for the past couple of months now) is more front torque when throttle angle is higher and speed is lower. It tapers down the faster you go. This setup works great for me, my car, my tires, and my torque curve - so you are best to setup your own maps based on your setup/tires/torque curve. The new version of software also allows for more signal to be sent to front allowing for even more torque, as well as an automatic burn-out feature which leaves the car in RWD only mode for a specific amount of time (also configurable) and then automatically reverts to the default map which is great for drag strip so you don't have to fiddle with the controller after you burn-out.

For those that don't want to mess around with customizing, the controller comes with various maps built in as well as various maps that Ben has customized that you can upload into the controller based on your specific needs.

That reminds me, I should go download the new maps lol.

Thanks man!! sounds like an investment help keep ets happy.

love it when my gtr friends answer the questions

not wanting to confuse people anymore than some are, but what if i said you can also tune the suspension ECU. yes there's a suspension ecu. GT-R has 4 ecu's
