whiteout Report post Posted September 10, 2014 Oh shit, I thought you were running dual ECU's. That's gotta be a big job condensing to one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
szabo_martin Report post Posted September 10, 2014 But nice having one know what's going on instead of 2 cross communicating. I just wonder how it talks to e-gear in the G's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
limey Report post Posted September 10, 2014 More eye candy, just picked this up today. Identical weave colour and pattern as the stock 6.0 interior, no-one else has this carbon fibre that matches the 6.0 :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPOZ Report post Posted September 11, 2014 The Haltech Elite series ECU would and could run this car with ease. Good on you for not going Motec... there are plenty of ecus out there that do not get a mention! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

limey Report post Posted September 11, 2014 Emilio, I used a local guy, has done some fantastic work for me and VERY reasonable priced. He did 6.0 rockers for me too, as well as some engine covers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

limey Report post Posted October 28, 2014 S.O.S, im afraid, waiting on vendors to get a fire lit up their arse. 3 months to build the headers! I had the ECU designed, built from scratch, new wire harnesses made before the fabricator built 2 headers, which still are not finished. So that's where i stand today, the ECU system if finished, removed the stock Marelli BAE 720 Coils and went with the 4 pin AUDI style that allow a lot hotter spark and much more options, not to mention cost is 18.00 per coil to $600.00 PER COIL for the Marelli, which only one vendor has any now that the factory discontinued the Marelli ones. Went with 850 cc injectors for UL fuel, not going to use E85 fuels. Will upload some pictures of the engine harnes and ECU setup.

Davo456 Report post Posted October 29, 2014 Can you tell me more about the coils, and can they be fitted to a standard car easily ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
megachad Report post Posted October 29, 2014 Can you tell me more about the coils, and can they be fitted to a standard car easily ? I think the answer is no. If you need coils for your 6.0 talk with whiteout Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
limey Report post Posted October 30, 2014 I think the answer is no. If you need coils for your 6.0 talk with whiteout These coils will not work on the factory ecu. This is a full custom ignition system with many changes. Whiteout, or sp power. Ebay too, they are listed there, about $1k for the set I think. Ps, whatever you do, keep your old coils, they will be priceless one day and a must for any restoration or originality. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

limey Report post Posted November 4, 2014 Custom harness, EURO12 ECU, 4 pin Audi coils modified to fit 6.0 cylinders, 850cc injectors, with custom injector harness, 2 into 1 harness converter, O2 sensors and interface box. Ends up about the same cost as 2 New Lamborghinin LIE ecu's and 100% tune able to any configuration. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davo456 Report post Posted November 4, 2014 just for info - the GFA display units are made by EFI Technology srl - so I'm wondering if the GFA and original LIE units are too ? So you are maybe just upgrading from one EFI unit to another ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are maybe just upgrading from one EFI unit to another ! Same name, but thats it, nothing else is even remotely similiar. I only wish it was that simple, what would have been nice is if EFI Technologies would have reprogrammed the stock ECu's, that would have been perfect, but you have no idea how hard i tried and strings i pulled to attempt this, not interested was the response.

oufan2929 Report post Posted November 4, 2014 Your optimism for the driveline is infectious, however I don't know of any diablo that's made that kind of power. With that said, I know of no platforms in the world that have held that kind of power with stock driveline. Maybe on borrowed time at best a choice few platforms can handle it. After building multiple 4 digit hp cars, I'd go ahead and plan on building difs and axles to lessen the down time. Huge difference between 750whp, 950whp, and 1200+... Can't wait to see the outcome!

The VW coils are a good choice if you're converting the entire computer system over. Cheap, readily available, 10+ years of boosted applications, and VW is constantly updating them.

marktc Report post Posted November 10, 2014 I love the harness direct plug in! That's fantastic. I also like the coil idea. Way cheaper alternative to the factory coils. I do have a question about the factory coils though, do they have their own built in amplifiers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
