That is probably why rotax just invested a fortune to modernize their dyno facility in austria....i guess you know better than them what happening in the mountains around the world.....this become stupid please stop.
i agree with you on one thing dyno testing do not resolve all issues but certainly give you a very good beginning before you hit the snow. you may think you are a world class tuner neil, but beleive me a guy like our engineer/tuner who is indy IRL certified and with multiple diplomas from E.F.I.university(if you ever know what it is) and pit passed at formula one racing race by gulf/renault certainly knows just a bit more than you, so i will stick with is recommendation instead of yours if you don't mind.

Not really sure why you say it's a joke. It's running on over 100 sleds now. It has replaced almost 50 RB3's with nothing but great results. There is plenty of video backing up that it runs. I have 3 sleds in my shop right now getting kits and have sold 10 in the last month. Where is the joke?
Show us the vids of how great this stuff runs and convince us all.
We don't want drag race vids either...anybody can tune for a drag race.

Why are you discussing what I know? Like I said, it doesn't really matter.
BRP tunes their sleds on the snow...you should know that.
Dyno's are for information, but you still have to tune where you ride.

cost hasn't been fix yet but we will try the best we can to stay affordable.
this ECU is a direct plug and play for the polaris wiring harness but can/will be usued for several other applications using adapter harness for many other product(in fact anything with batteryless e.f.i.), it can be a one size fit all ecu if wiring harness adapter are made!!

I understand. I have seen a lot of people tricked over the years and would sure hate to see it happen in this case. Sure would cool to see it running...for everyone.
I guess we will wait and see how it plays out.

as i stated earlier, pricing is not fixed yet, and yes the ECU will carry a warranty

Some good action on snowest. Winter must be on its way!
How does this controller work? Are you advertising gains on a stock sled? Will there be maps available from you for different engine setups and modifications? Will Joe Blow sledder with a bit of tuning knowledge be able to dial there sled in on there own, or will the user be at the mercy of the few E.F.I. geniuses out there, or do you just bolt parts and the controller does the rest?

First off, congratulations because if this ECU works well you are going to sell them like hot cakes. Every turbo kit manufacturer is still using a piggyback fuel controller with no timing control, and if your ECU does all as advertised then there will be a few turbo kit makers popping up using your product.
I could care less for the posturing going on, I am here for the info, to give and to recieve.
My first experience with a standalone on a track car I had built opened my eyes to how you can really push a motor with full control over all ECU functions. And the safety with which you can do this in un-matched by any piggyback unit around.
Think about the possibilities people. Boost-based fuel mapping, launch control (come out of the hole already under boost), timing retard for nitrous, adjustable rev limiter, etc.
Great work and I, for one, an excited to see this box for myself, and to see pricing of course.
When you guys get to the point of starting a dealer network, keep me in mind.

first, it is not a controller, it is a complete engine management wich mean you take control over every sensors/functions on the sled....everyone of them therefore called a standalone electronic control unit. any hp gain on stock sled? right now we have focused on duplicating oem mapping for a base mapping delivery in every ECU so you can replace ecu,pull cord and go on a stock sled, further testing later this month will show the potential lost hp or leftover hp from factory, several power kits will show up because now you can add let's say: air cold intake,low comp head,individual cylinder pipe,bigger injector and re-tune every aspect of fueling(injector duty cycle) and timming curve (this is a great idea!!!!!!)with lean out protection,digital knock detection,and boost adjust(if equipped).
if you have a bit of tuning knowledge you will be able to tune of course BUT maybe you think you have a bit of knowledge and that ain't the case...therefore we recommand tuning being done by someone you trust and if you trust yourself,then D.I.Y. we are completely commited to the rmk for this season and yes updated mapping for different kit will be available by us on our new(under construction) website and affiliated dealer's website(who are they?? still a secret!).

those functions you just talked about are just tip of the iceberg functions compared with the possibilities this ECU is giving you, the customer. i know pricing is a big issue and remember this ECU is within the big league will be much cheaper than a Motec plugin adapter ecu wich is 3000$ don't worry!

has to be the quote of the day!
I am very excited for this product! Just imagine how fine tuned you could get with an aerocharger or other variable vaine turbo? This COULD be a big deal.

Will there be a full refund for your engine management system if the customer isn't satisfied?
Are you going to have a dealer in Western Canada? Curious if there are going to be any sleds in Western Canada with real riders pushing the product? Ones that know what they are doing and know what a good running sled is?
These are all important things to me, I'm not going to take somebodys word that something works, I dont care what their education is, I deal with people all the time that tell me how smart they think they are. If I cant throw a leg over it and see it runs from 2500ft to 8000ft+, ride in all conditions, trail, deep pow, tree bashing/boondocking, drag racing and really load the engine up some chutes, I'm not interested. I am confused why you are trying to market something to western riders that IMO is untested, I hope people have learned enough in the last 5 years to know better than to buy into internet sales. You may have peoples attention but without proof and testing your not going to get their dollars. I hope your R&D is much quicker than 2 years because most sleds are obsolete by then. I will be the first to give credit where credit is due, until then, I'll be waiting for something spectacular.

PRE-PROGRAMMED???
With the Vi-Pec (And MOTEC as well) that's being used on the SEA-DOO watercraft, places like RIVA (and Nils, of "RUDE Superchargers") offer/sell a calibration for certain STAGE 1,2,3 SET-UPS and back-up support as well.
Are you planning on offering programming that will "Get you in the ballpark" at this time, or is that all up to the end user???
