Hey guys extremely new to this ecu/forum stuff and looking for some advice or a point in the right direction. Iv just done a L67 t5 conversion into an old galant. Im running a ecotec ecu with a cheap ebay special memcal just to get it running ,but having a bit of a read it looks like they are more harmful then good. Its just a stock L67 with extractors and looking to put the 10lb pully on. What tune do i need if any?
Thanks in advance

Re: L67 tune needed???
A stock tune would be fine other than it needs to be converted to suit a manual (there was never a manual L67 from the factory) and you would need a manual PCM (ecu) with no VATS as you won't have the BCM.
Who did you get the tune from on ebay?

Re: L67 tune needed???
nah you dont need a manual pcm ..... can use the auto one and untick the VATS and tick the manual flag.... wire speedo directly to the dash. ive run 2x L67 manuals that way with auto pcm and no speed input to it. they are fine
that being said.... you havent said if its auto or manual. if its auto then all good. just untick VATS and use a stock tune for now.

if it's a VS you'l need a manual pcm, autos wont read T5 speed sensor

I'm the director of VSH (Vlad's Spec Holden), because HSV were doing it ass about.
Re: L67 tune needed???
im not too fussed over the speedo as im running cable. I bought the memcal off txr100 or something like that not 100% sure.
The ecu has had the bcm turned off or taken out( i have no idea how its done but i bought it like that haha) i got the memcal just to make sure it didnt lean out and get it running now its done im looking to get a tune and if i do is it worth doing it ? Thanks again guys

TRX100 is well known here...... I wouldnt run his memcal in my paddock basher.... a stock one will be way safer...

I would say yes definitely get a tune, preferably someone nearby to you that can do you a realtime tune. if no one is close there are a few on this forum who tune l67s a lot who should be able to sort you out a good mail order tune.
