babybaluga32 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Ive never ran across anyone using aem, honestly I didnt even know that they made one.. Ive only seen people using emanage, pp6, and apexi so i could just be out of the loop. That or its jsut not very popular in legacys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated broknindarkagain Posted March 27, 2011 I Donated Share Posted March 27, 2011 No many people run piggyback systems on our cars. Generally, those who run something special have a turbo swap and they run the WRX or STI ECU. There are a few out there however that run stand alone ECUs. I have a Megasquirt 1 stand alone ecu in mine....but I'm not using an EJ22 or EJ25. I'm running an EJ20R with a TD04 turbo, 252 cams, MSD, and a bunch of other gooides. Are you just going to use base maps or are you going to get a pro tune? -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

Baddog Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Yeah I have heard good things. I will eventually get something for Piggyback for when I am done with my all motor build. That way I can get some more juice out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subikid90 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 use the pp6 -1 Rallitek told me last week that they no longer will support anything to do with them. You cant even get instruction on installing them anymore. The PP6 was a very good system but since Ralitek no longer supports it, it wont do you much good if you need help. -Subikid90 1997 Legacy GT 5spd & EJ251 w/EJ25D heads ~10.5CR 1998 Legacy GT Limited waiting for EJ22T hybrid swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joepaco Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 so i've been running the piggy back for couple of days so far no problems with it besides a wire i didn't hook up all the way in the plug thats the reason it was sputtering this week end im gonna install the 02 sensor bong and get the wide band in there so i can tune the fuel i was thinking 12:1 anyone know whats a good egt number for this car at what a/f ratio? or is it around 12:1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babybaluga32 Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Ive heard MAP cars like 12:1 and maf is more like 6-8:1. But I can not confirm that! I actually read it in the link I posted a few days ago! Im putting on a vortech fmu in place of my craptastic ebay rrfpr. Its 12:1 too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
