Thought Id share some pics of my soon to be finished project. I Decided to mount the Microtech inside the stock ECU case. Let me know what ya think.

 

looks sweet, hopefully i will have one in a year or two.

 

and another...

 

one more...

 

Looks neat........

But is there any concerns with cooling the unit? Especially when the top of the stock ECU case is screwed on. I'm not too sure just how hot they get - but with no air circulating over the heat sinks - it might be cause future problems. Or maybe not.

 

Yo,


Very sneaky...I like!



Now you see it...



Now ya don't!

When ya gonna fire it up?

Im not concerned with it getting too hot. Maybe someone with more microtech experience could comment on this?

 

Trying to cheat in some sort of racing??

 

In IT calss as long as it fits in the stock case its allowed
Looks like someone is going around emissions testing

 

Yo,

I got your boost right here!!! *snicker* I actually only boost after eating a Los Perico's carnitas super burrito.

You don't want NONE of that!

Im not trying to cheat anything. I just figured this would be a good place to mount it.

 

i need to find a new place to mount mine.. the cable to the laptop is being smooshed up against the side of the car.

 

I've seen a few others mounting It In the stock location with the same concerns. No reported cases of overheating has occurred though. The only reason why I never mounted It their was due to the lack of visability with LED lights. Oh well, pros and cons to everything.

 

i think im gonna make a braket behind the glovebox and then take out the glovebox "box" so you open up the glovebox and its the inside of the dash

 

Very cool, great location

 

Looks good bud. Sorry we could not hook up this weekend. I will snag that shrink tubing for you today. I love it, everyones projects are starting to get finished off .

Wow. Great Idea. If I ever do get some sort of ECU thinggy... thing, I will follow your lead and do this neat 'mod'.

Your ECU is all bling!
