I would imagine it would be more trouble than it was worth. These units still have some value - sell it and put the money towards a more supported system like Link or MoTec et al.

I have tried selling it but no interest unfortunately.
I can get an e manage ultimate for a couple of hundred pounds and they are good.
I was just a thought as it would save money on a custom loom again.

I'd suggest going for a more modern/popular ECU - think you'll struggle to find anyone who has the knowledge/software/cables for the F-Con...

FYI Chris @PTS can install and set up most aftermarket engine management systems and piggyback controllers such as GReddys excellent E-manage and E-manage Ultimate and Apexi's Power FC, Super AFC and Super ITC units. http://www.performancetuningservices.co.uk/tuning.html
May be worth pinging him an email :wink:

the problem with HKS if you need to have the HKS key and HKS software to map it. and you need to be a HKS dealer for them to let you have it.

I would envision it would be more inconvenience than it was valued. These units still have some worth - sell it and put the cash towards an increasingly upheld framework like Link or MoTec et al.
