Gen 1 legacy mapping

[jayo]

Does anyone know if jdm gen 1 legacy ecu can be remapped for irish fuel or does it need to be chip/ecu added for mapping?

Thanks

Yeah needs a daughterboard or ECU for a remap

Power FC commander was another thing

A Subaru of that age should run ok on 95?
Was it not till the mid to late 90s Japanese cars were set up for higher octane fuel

Drive away you'll be grand, I'm 15 years driving the rs unmapped and no bothers..

 

[JOHNNY T]

Its a 92 aswell..

 

[BazGF8]

That’s the truth I agree with you but on the flip side it could run a lot better with mapping , better on fuel and more power

Its true about the octane rate. I ran a V2 STi for two years with no issues.

If it were my legacy id change injectors and coil packs for newage ones and get it mapped purely for better driving experience not necessarily for any fuel quality reasons.

Thanks for the info lads.
Just weighing up my options if I decide to hold on to it long term and sell some thing else.

@BazGF8 Esl enduring solutions seem to be sold out of the boards,ill get in contact with them if I go down the road of getting it mapped. Thanks

@toyscrota What benefits would newage injectors and coil packs make ?
Smoother,sharper or...?

Thanks again for all the input

Sorry thought I replied to this. Well the injectors are bigger 440cc to 555cc with the kit I got. Coil packs are newer version so in turn better spark.
I made the changes based AP's suggestions and its night and day now with power and boost.
