Always good to see increased efficiency from stand alones. Has there been anyone who has been working directly on the car's ECU? Not the usual suspects ie Mine's, I am taking about some other tuner...
honestly the stock ECU will be dominated by EcuTek and Cobb. no real reason to go anything else due to the limited capabilties of the current crop of choices.
Next off will be stand alone ecu's. Motec, AEM and syvecs.
Motec already has alot of the development on the R35 done, i think they be writing more code for the M1 system, but it will be pretty good and offered soon this year. Syvecs will be the system to get and most likely the most affordable with what it includes (the sensors). The Motec system while great has only been tested at stock turbo, there is no doubt it will supply big hp (just like cobb, ecutek etc) but how it works with that power in the trans is whats its all about. Syvecs is already been tested and run at those high hp gtr's with more effecient transmission capabilities. HKS will be releasing the next version of the v-pro, but i dont think its as advanced as the syvecs nor the motec and costing alot. also the current v-pro needs the cobb or ecutek to get any more hp than the system offers stock from what i remember reading. greddy had some greddy labled system in there 35x (bensopra body kit), dunno if that will come to market or not and what it will include as of features.
AEM is unknown what capabilties it will offer for tcm integration. i have not heard of anything on the R35 front on this platform. Dunno any ETA either.
anyways, all these systems will make power. its the features, effeciencies, cost, software, intergration, logging, etc that will set each one apart.
