I got the ECU back around 10:30 Friday morning, installed it and have been really happy since! There is a considerable power gain in the lower RPM range and a bit more throughout. Throttle response is way better and the rev hang is gone. I'vs gone 90 or so miles so far and will update when I fill up. Overall a Greta tune from a great company! Thanks Danny and the rest of the C2 guys!

how tough was pulling the ecu? is there an edu floating around? what tune did you end up getting?

The rain tray, wiper arms, and a metal shield needs to be removed before you can get good access to the 2 faceless screws that need to have a slot cut in them to be removed. But after that it's simple, just unclip the two plugs and slide the ECU out.

My wiper arms didn't want to come out and the faceless screws are going to be the most time consuming tasks. Total time was around an hour with lots of pb blaster on the wiper arms. Make sure you cut the slots in the faceless screws deep enough, they have mild (blue) loctite on them.

What did you use to cut the faceless screws?

[Dronks]

Thanks for linking that DIY thygreyt.

I used a Dremel with a cutoff blade to cut a slot in each screw head like the DIY suggests. Removing the engine cover really helps to get a straight shot and more pressure on the screws with a screwdriver once you cut the slots.

The main reasons I got a tune is because I wanted better mileage and the rev hang gone. The extra power is just a nice bonus. I also ordered a P-Flo for easier maintenance.

A cold air intake? APR company makes them, but C2 doesnt.
