Pectel T2 to Emerald ECU conversion in the works

[mrmustang]

Based on my initial inquiry to Emerald, I received the following email from Karl at Emerald this morning:

 

"We are just in the process of preparing a K6+ ECU along with a small plug-in adapter for another customer that is switching over from a water damaged Pectel T2 ECU.
In this case the original unmodified loom is being re-used.
It hasn't been proven yet but hopefully that will be done within the next few weeks (depending on customer).
The cost is ECU at 695 GBP ($940 US) and adapter at 120 GBP ($163 US).

Best regards,
Karl"

 

My old bright orange Birkin (2013) with a highly modified 2.0L Zetec and TWM's had an Emerald ECU and the car ran flawlessly. Wondering if it might be worth the effort to upgrade/convert over for ease of use, and current/future support. Not that you guys have not been great, but just thinking outside the box as there are more Emerald users these days, and more shops willing to work with them than the Pectel.

 

Anyone done a similar conversion, I'm all for a potential plug and play option so as to not have to reinvent the wheel, so to speak. I believe it will even come with base maps for my engine/induction system. I'll just need to find a shop that is willing to assist with fine tuning.

 

As always, thanks in advance,

I like the emerald. It's simple for my brain.
