VH45 turbo ecu upgrade.

[Darin]

Hi. Just in the process of upgrading the ecu on my off-road race truck.

Currently running an Auntronic SMC and CDi.

I'm thinking to do what I want I'll need to use a G4+ Extreme. 

My questions are...

Will the extreme run the coils direct or do I need a cdi or ignitor etc ?

We are looking at using a tablet for the dash as it will also then run cameras etc. Can we get android app or is it windows based only? (Saw talk of Android but could find anything conclusive)

Is there a base tune for a VH45? (Series 2 cam sensor)

The ignition outputs are only low current "logic level" type outputs.  This means you will need an ignitor, cdi or coils with a built in ignitor.

You can wire an OBD2 socket to the ECU and plug in a wifi or Bluetooth OBD2 adapter, you can then use a 3rd party OBD2 app on Android or iOS.  There are many to choose from but some of the common ones are Torque, Dash Command, Harrys Lap timer, etc.

We dont have one to offer sorry, perhaps another user will.  If not we can help you knock something up that will get you running.

Ok. So the later model coils will work with direct feed. They're the same coils as RB25 etc.

Is there much to wiring in the OBD2 socket?
