LAP3 ECU and TCU Review

[44pirate]

When you WOT alot the mileage drops significantly. Your running CPI it's a big difference with my setup compared to yours.
You can't compare it. If I'm at e30-e40 driving like you I get the same results.

Oh you are saying wmi is less efficient then cpi?

I don't know why your in this thread when it's about Lap3. You JB4 guys have tons of threads about issues. To me it's not worth running alot of e85 for mpg. I bet if you would go WOT everytime you drive your car your MPG would drop alot lower.

Who said it’s not about lap3? Lol
I have been asking if there are still guys that had lap3 1.5 and 2.5 because a few years ago starting on page 1 of this thread there have been quite a few that had it and I’ve been asking for feedback sense it’s been quite a bit of time sense then and I am thinking about purchasing it for my car.
I am also talking about cpi because that can be used for any lap3 (and must for 2.5) and I don’t want to change to wmi if I don’t have to.
Of course you’re not running e85 for mpg it’s because e is less efficient but higher octane. All I got from you is you’re flooring it everywhere if you are getting 8mpg.

One of the fastest Lap3 guy is full CPI. You would need 2.5+ECU. There are hardly any threads of issues with Lap3, the only issues are arguing which is better. If you have CPI setup now, then the 2.5+ ECU will work and yes you need the Jb4 to control CPI.

You can discuss with David Chung and Charlie Ashby to get it setup. Ashby is full CPI with fastest times.

What do you mean 2.5 + ecu? I thought they send you an ecu tuned for 2,5. Or did I get that wrong?

There was an upgrade to the 2.5 , hence 2.5+. Yes you get an ECU. Go to the Lap3 USA site. You can call and talk to David. I am no way an authority on CPI.

Oh I see. I misread like it was two things. Thanks for clearing that up.
