Key components compared to other similar options. *Cost *Support (this is a HUGE factor when selecting an aftermarket ECU). *Software/Hardware development (not going to be obsolete in a couple years) *No external modules required *True plug n play *Flex fuel tuning option *Can run literally any engine, not just a 1.8T. *Plus a ton of features/options

I just put an EMU black pnp setup into my mk4 1.8t GTI. Mine is a 2008cc stroker with Scat rods, Wiseco pistons, BC Stage 2+ cams, BC springs & retainers, Pulsar GTX3071R gen2. Tuned on e85 it made 550 whp & 455 lb/ft of torque at about 25 psi. I have no complaints about the ECUMaster, definitely a great option for our cars. 😎👍🏽

Really like what your doing with this. You mentioned Ignitron, It's even easier to install than EMU as it was designed to replace the ME7.X ECU . Comes with base maps installed to cover pretty much any car using ME7 ECU. Intergrates seemlessly with the stock car, connects to other modules via the CAN bus giving ABS wheel speeds, Oil temperature from the cluster if the car has an oil level sensor fitted, controls the haldex if you disable the ABS, supports DQ250, DQ500 DSG gearboxes, anti lag,rolling anti lag, flex fuel etc etc. Direct connection to a windows tablet to display gauges , Logs in real time continuously upto around 30 parameters. Logs all parameters, hundreds of things including all the status bits if you want to allow you a full log of an acceleration run or dyno pull. Plus many other things. I had never tuned a petrol car before building the engine on my MK1 TT. It's currently running around just over 510bhp on a G25-660 with a 2012 Audi TTS DSG box that I fitted. kzbin.info/www/bejne/laWQgXarn56VsNE kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3_dlWp9nbeaeJY

I've dealt with smaller companies like this in the past, remember I'm old. It typically doesn't last as folks move on and support and hardware falls behind. I get that Ignitron works, but a perfect example is on their website it says supports 5cyl... when I contacted them about doing one of our 5cyl projects they're reply was "we don't have any 5cyl running this ECU". This simply proves the size of the operation, and customer base. Also that ECU is specific to that platform (basically). EMU Black can run whatever you want, and in most cases very easily. Sure Ignitron can work, but when comparing it to this... I would chose the EMU Black time and time again, it's just as easy to install, and has amazing support, and you don't have to worry about it being left behind when it comes to software/hardware.

It took me longer to remove the wipers and scuttle on my TT than it did to configure the ECU with the wizard and get the car running. No adaptor cables just true plug and play. Looking forward to what you do with this.

You definitely need to get Ignitron on a build. As a VAG 1.8t specific standalone , it does everything you just listed about the ECUmaster. Get ahold of Badger5 or VagetaGTI , I’m pretty sure they both have the source for the Hungarian Ignitron system . I’ve seen a lot of ECU’s and it impressed me . I’m old school/new school.

Looking to going standalone for my setup but a few questions I didn't see in the comments: 1. Instrument cluster: Do you retain full functionality of the stock cluster? Was the Traction Control/ABS resolved? 2. Immobilizer: Will the light on the cluster stay off without any additional modification? 3. Emissions: The standalone doesn't have any functionality for secondary air, evap, or cataylictic converter? So there should be no need for adding resistors when deleting those components? 4. CEL: Will the CEL be thrown for things like fuel trim (vacuum leaks), MAF failure, etc... or will the CEL remain or forever?

I ended up buying the 1.8t PNP and theres a bit of wiring to be done, no where near as much as if you went with any other standalone though. traction control was just a problem with their car. works fine on mine. immobilizer light isnt on for me you do not need resistors for any emissions you delete, i went so far as to remove the wires for all emissions in the entire harness, just to clean things up. the CEL will turn on for what you tell it to turn on for. IE faults with certain sensors, sensors reading out of parameters (temp or pressure) CEL will not remain on forever...unless your car has a problem forever. lol

ignitron does give the same functions and full oem support, the ability to expand, etc. oem 4bar map support, or any aftermarket, true speed density or alphaN(mafless), or any maf you want to scale, traction control variations, boost by gear, haldex control, me7.5 car support(s4, 24v VR,etc), the ability to add to the ecu, has full lambda control on board, can run 2 with the new firmware update, and sooo much more, etc etc. You can still use the DLC(obd port) to run torque pro and such, but like the emu black, it doesn't support emissions testing YET. Having installed, built, swapped and tuned many 1.8t's(and other engines from various makes and models) I personally choose ignitron after tuning a few cars with it a couple years ago. I still think, top three PnP for 1.8t, in order are... 1)ignitron 2)emu black 3)haltec The difference between 1/2 and 3 for plugnplay simplicity is fairly large, but the haltec is just as powerful, though it has less oem component support in my opinion. But I don't have a cool youtube channel ;) regardless, you guys keep knocking it out of the park.

I've seen plenty of clients move from one project to the next, or swap engines etc. This option allows you to grow and doesn't simply back you into a corner. Software and tuning is expensive, so having an option that can grow and move with you no matter what the engine or platform is big to me.

@@WyGuyTurbski My issue is this... take it for what you will. I've used quite a few standalones over the years, the biggest thing I can recommend from my experiences and money and time wasted, is buy something that is more mainstream. When it comes to support, product development be it software or hardware you know things are going to continue on. As time goes on the smaller more specific outfits typically start to disappear and the product dies off leaving you in the dark with old hardware and software. The more mainstream outfits will continue on supporting and making hardware and software as it's their full time business, not a side hustle. So my opinion is think long term for the reasons listed above. Also maybe you won't even want that car or engine in a few years, something like this can easily move with you.
