Ostrich 2.0

Post by KarlM30 »

Had a shop around my area that said they can tune my turbo set up with ostrich 2.0. I have motronic 1.0a 059 ecu. Input? What do you guys think? Trying to avoid MS since I'm not looking to make any power out of this world. I know every mod I add ill have to get a new chip burned but that's ok not looking to change the set up that much after I'm done with it.
What do you guys think? Looking for 350 whp they said they've pushed motronic to 15 psi so far without problems.

Thanks guys

i am running one in a red 413 from a m50tu on my m88/3 and it tunes about the same as megasquirt, not sure how different the tuning would be on motronic 1 but the interface would be the same

As far as I've read it's the same as a war chip

i worked on a war chip in a dinan m5 turbo and it was a fucking pain in the ass, not being able to even be hooked up to the ecu while its running suuuuucccckkkkksssss. worked for two hours and barely made any progress, give me two hours with a megasquirt or my 413 on a engine that will start and idle and ill have a 80% tune
