    Just commenting to tell that I bought a G4X and your video made me fiddle with GP limits for oil pressure, temp and fuel pressure
    That will save my engine one day probably :)

      Excellent! If you have an Ethrottle you can add extra safeties. I have the throttle closing near the top of the RPM to reduce the load/boost when I'm on limiter.

    Cool to see the different examples of the ECU warning triggers. It helps having so much on board footage too! Good work on the blogs.

      Thanks! I like knowing that the ECU is doing all of the thinking for me, I can just concentrate on driving!

    Sold me on the G4X for an MX5, had no idea all the safety features that it had!

    Compared to Haltech would you recommend Link for an R32 GTR? I am about to go single turbo with a build of no more than 450 KW (600hp) at the flywheel. I am not sure if you have used Haltech before so you may compare one to the other. Any suggestions, input would be appreciated. Thumbs up on the vid.

      Hey mate, sorry only just saw your comment. I haven't used Haltech before. The Link has worked amazingly out of the box, more and more top level drivers internationally are changing to Link because of how well it works. The Link Fury has everything all built into it; knock, wideband, data logging etc so there's nothing else you need to buy.

    Great video! I also have the the link mxs dash, how did you get it to pop up on the screen saying you’ve activated launch control / high boost ecu? I can also display warnings from the ecu can, can display and ecu digital input functions like that?

    • @DeanNewcombDrift
      @DeanNewcombDrift  4 роки тому

      Hey. I use a custom CAN stream. The dash is just being told whether the digital input switch is on or off. I think there’s a topic in the Link forum about the custom stream. I’ll find it for you.

    Rad, i also have a mxs strada with a G4+ how did you get the whole screen to turn red?

    • @DeanNewcombDrift
      @DeanNewcombDrift  4 роки тому

      I think it’s one of the warning options. You can choose to either have a light flash or the whole dash to display the warning.

    So I have a g4+v10 stand alone tuned but I have 0 throttle response. All the sensors are fine, and my drive by wire throttle body is also fine. does that mean my ecu needs to be retuned ? What would cause this thanks to anyone that could help. Car has been parked for a year now :(

    • @DeanNewcombDrift
      @DeanNewcombDrift  11 місяців тому

      Have you connected the ECU to the Link software and checked for any errors? No throttle response at all would usually suggest the DBW is going into limp mode because of an error. You should also visit the Link Support Forum and ask the question there. The support team is awesome.
