Right as promised i said i would get a back to back test done on these ECU's and here are the results.
Test equipment
Dyno Dynamics rollers
Engine
B18C
Mods
Spoon N1
Spoon B pipe
Mugen 4-2-1
Baffled decat
Spoon air filter
Spoon elbow
Spoon 70mm Taper throttle body
Cold air feed in bumper
Results and graph
Spoon ECU 197.4 bhp (Pink Lines)
OEM ECU 196 bhp (Green Lines)
Power and Torque
Power and AFR
Ok not much in it on peak BUT right from down low the graph is above the OEM as much as 17 bhp @ 6000 rpm. The Spoon is significantly above the OEM on average arround 7 bhp through out! I'm very pleased with these results especially when the ECU cost me £350.
One thing to note is both ECU's where running lean OEM a lot more than the Spoon. The Dyno man told me not to run the OEM one anymore because it was that lean. He said the Spoon was good in VTEC but a bit lean low down. Nothing to much to worry about but there is more from my Engine with a S300
