I took a trip to Rod Bell Motorsport yesterday, i was having some problems with accleration on my gtst and phoned him for some advice, he told me cos i was only a couple of miles away to pop down and he'd see what the problem was, anyway to cut a long story short, within 5 minutes and a short test drive he'd diagnosed the fault and cured it ( OVERBOOST ) causing hesitation on acceleration.

I asked him how much i owed him, but he wouldn't take anything off me, WHAT A GUY!

ANYWAY, he did mention the best move now was to fit an after market ecu and controller, the FC Commander, he said it'd cost abt a grand to buy it, have it installed and remapped to my cars specs. He said it'd improve the cars performance no end and also provide some protection against engine mishaps.

Now i'm well prepared to pay the money if it'll do all this, but has anyone else got one of these fitted and would you recommend it? does it do what it says on the tin?

Power FC's are good bits of kit on a Gts-t. Well worth getting early on in the modding scheme, as it can be remapped as you do more mods.

Can vouch for the Power FC & Commander on my last car, it transformed it in a big way and at the same time give you peace of mind that everything is setup well.

Yeah rod bell seems a top bloke, phoned him yesterday about unlocking my power fc as my previous tuner is being awkward about giving me the password?!?!?!. And most other places i have phoned have said the password is needed. Was on the phone about 2 mins and he had talked me through how to reset it no password required. I just need to run my new engine in now, then i will be taking a trip down to see him for a remap. Anyone know how much he charges??

 

[ricky-tk]

he told me, abt £700 for the ecu and controller and abt £300 to map it..

 

[cong]

just had my gtr mapped by rod! he will actually spend some time and tell you how to do some basic adjustments on your pfc yourself! defintly money well spent!

 

[Skyline Boy]

Wow, Rod sounds like a Top bloke to me, it always diffucult to know who it trust with ur engine, most people dont seem to both as much as this guy,

Ecu is def next on my list! Hope ill be seeing Rod in the future!
