Who Is Running a dtec?

Post by Ej22TIM »

how do you like it? what is required for an install?

I know you need a GBA, but do you need to buy a special wiring harness? will it even work with my turbo legacy ecu?
sorry about all the NOOB qs.....

this seems like the best piggyback out there in my opinion

I posted a thread asking the same question not too long ago. It seemed like a few members were planning on using this and one that had lost his car to a wreck, but I couldn't get much current info on the thing.

Just to let you know, it doesn't directly control timing. Which is the reason I discluded it in my search for EM.

For a piggyback, have you looked into the PerfectPower from RalliTEK?

I have one I just removed from a parts car, and I am installing it on a friends 91 SS with EVO3 16G and large injectors, this is the same setup the parts car had. Parts car made ~320whp on this setup, no knock and a fair amount of timing. LMK if you need anyhelp, as I will be documenting the install of the DTEC/Knocklite.
