Lozic ECU + TCU + AWD Tune

[BUZER]

I'm talking to them now on Instagram messenger. TCU price has gone up, its $950 with shipping. Said it will take a week to arrive if I order today.

I'm also RWD and want my tranny to feel like a PDK. What options will you be going with?

I'm not going with their ECU yet so I'm going to leave shift at 0% for regular shift points, pressure 3, torque limits Off. I'm GT2 so I'm E shifter. H shifter is for GT1.

If I may ask, why leave it at 0% now? Especially if you plan on getting an ECU in the future?

I'm not sure I will. Their most aggressive tune is 1.7 bar 24.5psi, I run that now on my custom map with perfect timing and afr's. The only thing I don't like is my first and second hold back boost Badly, but it kinda helps me from spinning a lot down low. The TCU tune has torque limiting off so I will see if that changes anything. Plus I like to shift at 6k lol. I don't want to have to relearn it. If I did end up getting the ECU down the road I know that I have an extra five hundred RPMs to shift without it doing the cut back if I make a mistake.

Important to note for anyone ordering a TCU. They cannot be re-tuned. They are one and done due to some hardware limitation from what I understand. So if you select a 3 and want a 2 later, you need to order a new TCU.

Ok, thanks. Do you guys think AWD is needed? It can be a risk to put to much at front and for the front diff.

My opinion is that the awd tune is only needed if your goal is to squeak out that last little bit of time in a 1/4 mile for example. The tune just makes the transfer from rear to front faster to get more grip.

I'm running the 1.7 bar tune with ecu
It's definitely aggressive I'm full bolt on
Boost peeked at 25.7

Trust me after 2 weeks I want level 4 LOL. Unless it shifts like an 812 Superfast I will never be happy

Ha ha, well you will probably like it then!

Keep in mind that the faster shifts are achieved by increasing pressure in the trans, so that likely equates to a shorter life...

We are here for a fun time, not a long time....well until we see that repair bill.

That's damn good! Constant or just 1-2x. see your my perfect benchmark. We have close setup just different makers. How is your launch now and how are your shifts?

I work for Kia and trust me they will warranty anything. that's how they make money. My service department knows about my jb4 my downpipes hell they're the ones that put everything on LOL. my service manager would hide anything he had to to warranty my car. I even got the euro-spec brakes and rotors on my last one after 20k miles under warranty. I'm good.

Honestly havent messed with car in a while
Was working with Williams at first to figure out kinks of tune of course haven't seen anyone else running a 1.7 bar so nothing to compare to
Shifts are quick but a lil harsh especially on downshift.

Logs look good. Does it Rev match hard? Why's downshift harsh? How was launching it?

Is the higher gearbox pressure in every drive setting or could you have just at "Sport" and "Sport +"?

Also, how is it to have that pressure when you cruise? I think that level 2 will be a good compromise for me.

I have pressure 2. And it's across all modes. I think if you are asking you do not want 3. 2 is fast and crisp. After first install I thought shifts were too harsh. After disconnecting JB4 seemed to be not as bad or coincidence. I have not drove many miles but driving around last weekend shifts seemed soft just cruising around but get into it and harder faster shifts.
Overall I am happy with pressure 2 and have no need for higher.
Although Lozic says most want 3 and alot request a 4.

Great to have answer, thanks!

Yes, I think 2 will be enough for the power ost of us have.

What have you chose for settings for launch? I feel I still want have stock revs but with a few PSI. So if my choose is Torque controll "on" in order sheet, do I have boost at launch then compared not any boost with stock TCU?

Not sure , but think it would be the same as stock.

I haven't launched it but did do a mean burn out
I believe it's do to raising the line pressure
