  1. Hi, im looking to have an egt input to the V88, can the ecu accept a direct input from a sensor or does it have to go through an egt controller? any recommendations? thanks
  2. Also is it possible and safe to power up the ecu without installing it to a car, id like to benchtest and have most setting and parameters in place and connection to my AIM dash setup before its installed in the car, and also obtain my ecu serial number for full access on the forum. Im guessing its a matter of +12v to the red and -12v to the blacks? Thanks
  3. Hi, thanks for the reply and the information, so whilst the laptop is connected to the ecu i must unplug the dash? Id of thought some information on the dash would be needed whilst mapping.
  4. Hi, please excuse my ignorance, new to aftermarket management. Ive just purchased a Vi-pec V88, and also an AIM mxl strada dash, im trying to gather all the parts im going to need before i start assembly, so got a few questions I hope you can help with. connecting v88 to AIM, both seem to have CAN, is the best way using CANDASH lead? Its also stated that the CANDASH cannot be used whilst the CANUSB is connected, does this mean whilst connected to laptop for mapping the dash would not work or infact any other connections? Sensors & inputs, am i best to have all the inputs from engine including crank, cam, cts, map, tps, iat, wideband, egt x4, wheelspeed, oil pressure, oil temp, fuel pressure. (any others?) or should some feed direct to dash? Vipec advise connecting to ecu, aim advise connecting to dash and then feeding the data to the other device via CAN. Should mention the car is for drag race use, engine is a vauxhall z20let 2ltr turbo. sorry to throw so many questions at once, Id really like to get my head round this and and do most of it myself. Cheers
