j_jza80 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Yeah exactly that! I'm still in two minds whether to go single as I am slightly worried about losing that drivability as in the respond side of things! Even when I do go single i wouldn't want any more then 550BHp at the fly Choose a smallish billet ball bearing turbo, and you can have a more responsive and more powerful car, which sounds nicer, and should be more reliable due to ditching many vac pipes and solenoids etc. It's a no brainer imo, though it is expensive to do properly.

Axl Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I'll bring some twincore cable a drain pipe and some cable ties we'll sort it no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashloys Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I know several people running LINK ECU's, the G4 range is fantastic. NP89 on here is using the Xtreme for his forged/single build and another friend just got a G4+ Atom fitted and mapped to his NA-T with the Whifbitz kit, which is their 'entry level' ECU. Mark Luney has just been announced as the UK Sales Manager for LINK who I'm quite friendly with, so if anyone needs me to find out anything or put you in contact, give me a shout.

V8KILR Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I have used the Link plugin ECU (no wiring needed) for some time now. It's a very good ECU, but does not run the sequential turbos. The two latest Link ECUs are awesome. These are the Link Fury and the Link Thunder. I'll be upgrading to the Link Thunder this year as it can do ABS sensor based traction control as well as all the other bells and whistles.

Nodalmighty Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I've used Link for the past 12 years. They've come a long long way in that time. Their latest systems are as good (and most of the time better then) anything else out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 If it has 4 spare outputs, not needed to be PWM, just switched on or off , with 4 spare 3D tables (maybe 2D would do, not sure) yo run them, it should do. They have support forum I would ask there, or ring them up. Ringing them would check out their real world support before spending money...

Jellybean Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Just get a Motec M150! Dave Rowe or Frank MacKellar to map it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Would you say any of them are capable of running the sequential system on the supra? The G2, G3 LEM, G3 XLEM, G4 Storm, G4 Extreme , G5 Fury, G4 Storm Black, Thunder all capable. G3 LEM and G4 Storm would require sacrifice of the engine check light or Boost Control to do it.

gordy.r Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 A Link ecu was something I was interested in for a single set up, but the tuner I spoke with needed to check up on opeartion of the Link unit with the autobox. Anyone got any info on this and how they run together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Can you get a PNP unit for the Supra, Thunder or Fury? All I see is this but what model it is I dont know http://www.linkecu.com/TS2JZPlus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8KILR Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 It is based on the Storm. I use one of these in my Supra and it does a great job. Fine for a street car or low budget racer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
