Best tuning software

[streetfiresa]

I currently have 90 gsx that I bought it came with 750cc injectors from what the guy told me I took a look at them and the are RC's but did not see the size. All that being said it has the safc2 but having a lot of issues tuning is there a better resort.

Multiple like ecmlink jackal or ostrich (sp) depends all what you would like to do there also is an AEM standalone that also has a standalone price of its own

Thats a crazy question on this website

 

[streetfiresa]

Well obviously I am a newbie came from an srt4 to dsm hoping to liking it and sticking to it. DSM link I hear seems to be the main choice for most.

 

[Rsawd95dsm]

Most seem to do DSM link

 

[streetfiresa]

thanks man do you know more or less what they go for or are there different versions of it

DSMLink is very user friendly. Even if you do get stuck, it's so widely used in the DSM community that someone can point you in the right direction. However, from what I have heard, Ostrich is a very strong tuning system. Especially for Speed Density. AEM is for those tuning nerds who want to make huge power and know how to tune every aspect of the engine. So it really comes down how much you want to pay, how much experience you have with tuning, and how much power you want to make. But 90% of DSMer's would be perfectly fine using Link V3.

They are usually about 600 for the system and for them to put the chip in themselves (which is highly recomended they do) maybe just a hair cheaper and they keep coming out with new updated versions check out ECMTuning, Inc. for more info and for reading up on it to find out more

DSMlink is definitely a popular choice. Like Rsawd95dsm said, read up on ECMTuning. They answer a lot of questions and you can even compare DSMLink V3 lite to the DSMLink V3 full version.

This. The safc is good to 650cc injectors. That may be why you are struggling to get it tuned. Just do some reading. If the car is not a dd put the safc on ebay to help fund your decision.

 

[streetfiresa]

yeah its been nothing but a struggle with the safc will look for a v2 just to get me by for the meantime and will go from there

 

[codeofdastreets]

If you looking for not a crazy setupon pump gas id do ecmlink lite

 

[maddogxx]

Definately get the ECMLINK V3 full version if you can afford it you wont be sorry, I got mine used off craigslist with the ecu and a GM maf cable for $500 shipped. Good luck!

I agree with wes_393, dsm link is very popular. But if you ask me I love aem ems, there is so much you can do with it!

 

[streetfiresa]

I'm not techy enough just yet for aem but I will keep an eye on cf seems like there is nothing u can't find on there

 

[streetfiresa]

I forgot one last thing anyone know the best way to wire the fans when I bough the car its setup to a switch but keeps burning out it might be ### of the wire gauge but maybe there is a better way

Better tuning systems are haltech, motec, aem ems etc. Those are for the big boys and will yield the best results if you know how to tune, those are also full stand alone systems.
Ecmlink is the best bang for your buck most popular user friendly tuning software out for DSM's right now
Some will say Ostrich Emulator is similar, but its logging capabilities suck.
Also with the AEM system its ignition control isn't the best so most people run coil on pliug with spark tech or msd dis ignitions.

 

[streetfiresa]

I see ecmlink still seems to be the choice at hand with it's user friendly interface
