It would be verry nice with a "how To" video on a piggyback installation.. n/a to boosted on at newer car. Using the onboard map sensor on the haltech.... Whats going to happen with the factory ecu and its map sensor when suddenly reading boost. And same situation if the car had maf sensor. Thats one of my main concerns when considering boosting my 2015 car, where i se piggybacking as my only option. love your videos!! Cheers fro Denmark
I am glad they answered the piggy back question. I was curious to know if I can keep the factory ecu for abs and airbags and a haltech for an engine swap.
1:06 here ya go jake. he’ll quickly cover the old-school piggyback systems that you’re familiar with hearing about. And then he’s going to cover the way I was talking about.
good video. which haltech ecu do you recommend for piggyback to just control engine power? (then leaving the stock ecu to control regular non engine functions). thank you
Can the 750 do signal bending piggyback mode? Eg for an E.TB setup can you manipulate TPS and manifold pressure (load) to trick the factory computer to open up the throttle more? If its a detuned engine via TPS%
I've noticed that you do plug in ECU's for say Nissans ect that run everything including all the dash gauges. Im wondering if you are looking at doing a direct plug in to the E Series Falcons?
So in theory I can use a Haltech 2500 to run a ford Coyote engine in a PX ranger and leave the ranger ecu in place to run transmission, ac, traction control 4x4 etc ?
I have a Rx7 fd road car, I have the ps1000 Ecu and iq3 street dash and I was contemplating getting the racepak smartwire system. Only trouble is I fear the smartwire won’t have enough channels for all the necessary functions of a road car. Also I can’t find any guides for fitting, Would it be possible to run smartwire and install while getting rid of the 3 or 4 fuse boxes the car has and maintain all the functions the car needs to operate on the 16 or so channels the smartwire has
I'll be swapping my auto trans for a 5 speed in my 2000 sc300, but it'll leave a check engine light. Could I use a piggyback system to interrupt the check engine light from going off?
Hey just wondering if the 1500 elite can be run on a 09 swift sport and if so do you know the pin out for the oem ecu seeing I’ve herd it’s a bit of a nightmare to get the over complicated a/c setup to work Ps all ways enjoyable content thanks tuning fork
Are Australians crazy about Diesel? What about Diesel tuning? I am not sure if I ever came across it or saw a passion for it from you guys. How does Diesel tuning work?
Gday I have an interceptor that I want to remove from a vs v6 commodore will the factory ecu work as per normal after removal do I have to reset anything on ecu before I remove THANKS
You just need to be sure the Elite 2000 is reading a speed input. If it doesn’t have this then it can’t know when you are “rolling”. Most people will add an enable switch for both so they can arm the system when needed.
Would it be possible to have the halTech ecu control the emissions system like EGR valve and other vacuum solenoids? Would it be possible to add an OBD2 "read only" data port?
Hi there, contact out tech support on support@haltech.com and one of our guys will be able to help you out. You can also call one of our offices directly and just ask for tech support:)
I know how to set that up, but do I run the signal to the switch power on the relay or do I switch to ground the really when it hits the default temp. I was thinking switch power.
We do get them, just not a lot of them get modified. Just like with every other car though, when people start working on them and they get popular at car meets and races then aftermarket manufacturers start making parts for them:)
Very true about the aftermarket, being a Swede i have a lot of that for the 5s. but i'd love to see what the rest of the world can do with them. the engines can take a beating, the horsepower record is something like 1200hp :D
In general, how difficult is it to run an aftermarket ECU on an I5? I’m assuming you’d need sequential ignition. Any other quirks that need to be dealt with? Firing order/angle maybe?

That boost by gear info was really helpful, thanks!
Great Q&A.....so helpful and solid, and a great reason to go Haltech!
Love the farm truck hat in the background
It's signed by both of them too:)
If I were to run a piggyback ECU on a USDM 2012 STi, would it leave enough of the factory stuff in place that it would pass an OBD2 readiness test?
good video. which haltech ecu do you recommend for piggyback to just control engine power? (then leaving the stock ecu to control regular non engine functions). thank you
:D 276th! Editing and graphics are great :) Difficult to make tech videos interesting keep up the good work!

would love these vid's to be longer.

What should i do for my v8td 79 series... reflash.. unichip or is there a haltech model that suits??
Can you display different traction control setups on the IQ3 for example 20%, 15%, 10%, Dry and WET slip
Which Would you guys recommend, a piggyback ecu chip(signal bender), or an ecu remap?

Do you have a video about how to piggyback a standalone, as in the 2nd example?

so a piggy back would be the way to go for a cl9 accord euro as honda has done some funny stuff with the ecu dbw and immobiliser
Is it possible for Haltech to do custom harness to piggy back a 2JZ into a Lexus RCF using the Haltech elite 2500?
Gday I have an interceptor that I want to remove from a vs v6 commodore will the factory ecu work as per normal after removal do I have to reset anything on ecu before I remove THANKS
What sensors will I have to add to a cressida to do launch control and rolling anti lag with a elite 2000?(r154 transmission)
You just need to be sure the Elite 2000 is reading a speed input. If it doesn’t have this then it can’t know when you are “rolling”. Most people will add an enable switch for both so they can arm the system when needed.
Hey Scott, what would be the easiest way to to make my 3rz hilux tunable for a turbo conversion?
Hey there can a heltech ecu plug on to a BMW 335i 2014 ecu or the would be a lot of changes
Would it be possible to have the halTech ecu control the emissions system like EGR valve and other vacuum solenoids? Would it be possible to add an OBD2 "read only" data port?
Haltech stupid autocorrect on my phone
LOL all good:)
Hey bro. How to do the Boost By Gear setup? I tried to do the gear calibration and it only went to 0. Help plz.i have an elite 1500,SR20VE fwd

What kind of piggy back ecu would you recommend for a supercharged 98 camry v6 auto? Im new to this lol
Elite 2000 or Elite 2500 if you want all the advanced race functions.
@@haltech will it be a plug n play or do i have to splice muiltple wires?
It would require a custom wiring. You'd be hard pressed finding an aftermarket Plug'n'Play ECU for a 98 Camry V6 auto.
Hey Scott do u guys ship overseas. Eg: to a caribbean island like Grenada where am from . And if yes how can I purchase ur product
Kevin Chetram Look up the Haltech website: www.haltech.com
how do you wire in and signal electric fans to turn on with the elite
MoPower have an output trigged on and off by coolant temp i think thats pretty universal among ecus
I know how to set that up, but do I run the signal to the switch power on the relay or do I switch to ground the really when it hits the default temp. I was thinking switch power.
The second ecu install is called a parallel install.
... or a "piggyback"
How many Volvo inline 5 do you guys see getting a haltech?
Not a lot of enquiries about the Volvo inline 5 at this stage.
maybe you didn't get a lot of the fun models in aussieland? Like the Rs and T5s?
We do get them, just not a lot of them get modified. Just like with every other car though, when people start working on them and they get popular at car meets and races then aftermarket manufacturers start making parts for them:)

Hi. Has anyone piggy backed a Mercedes m113 v8?
Second lol
First...
Yay!
