Ferrari 360 Swiss Army Knife by 360trev!

I got my ECU's back from AV Engineering last month but just got the car on the road yesterday. I decided that during my prolonged "staycation" I put the car on the lift and knock out all of the little (and some big) things out.

Just as all of this crap hit the fan my F1 system was giving me fits that turned out I had 2 bad relays, replaced a bad one with a bad one....... Once I got it sorted I realized that I wasn't going anywhere for at least a couple of months I decided to just take care of the list of things. Back in 2014 I purchased everything I needed to do the manual conversion so I got down to it. I had purchased a pair of manual - sport exhaust ECU's that I was going to use until the "Swiss army knife" came along so I shipped my F1 ECU's off to AV to get them done right.


Met up with some friends yesterday and went for a drive.

We did about 70 miles yesterday and couldn’t wipe the smile off of my face. Between now having a manual, a smooth power band that pulls to redline and no check engine lights to say I’m happy would be an understatement!

The ECU tuning makes for a much more enjoyable drive.



This is what I had done:


1. Convert to manual transmission

2. CS fuelling and ignition maps recalibrated for regular MAF sensors.

3. Catalytic converter monitoring removed (to stop the cel from your exhaust)

4. EVAP pressure monitoring widened (to stop a cel from not tightening the gas cap enough)

5. Custom exhaust valve operating map

6. Instant torque patch (removes the delay between the throttle pedal and the engine)

7. Custom cold start calibration (prevents a misfire cel during very cold starts)

8. Clear the immobilizer so I could use the new unit I have.

Big thanks to Trev and Aldous for making this available to the community.

 

I love every thing about your car and knowledge

 

Thanks!
A buddy of mine has a youtube channel and recorded everything. As soon as it's edited I'll let everyone know.

 

Me too. I did all of that last August.
I love my car so much more.

 

Something else I noticed after the ECU tune. I no longer have a 1 amp parasitic power draw when the car is parked.

 

+1

I tested mine by keeping it off the trickle charger for 2 weeks at which point the battery went down to 12.15v.
It was enough to start the car but I preferred to keep the battery fully charged because when you don't we all know
how the gremlins love to play then.

Previously it lasted maybe just 5 days to get to 12.15v. 1 week without the charger and she wouldn't budge.

 

Did you guys get the immobiliser off patch too then? Just trying to figure out why the updated ECU flash would affect current drain?

 

I had a new Ferrari immobilizer that I installed during the process. I had AV clear both ECU's so either one would accept the new unit.

 

no reply from av or trev

 

From the lack of action on the "SAK" for the 360 in the last year, it seems that Trev has given up on the project, or gone a different route. I'd love to have his tool but a "just on paper" tool is worthless. Too bad.

 

even AV's voicy isn't responding, ah!!!

 

did I just see God coming from above?

 

Glad to read from you Trev! Any update on a tool to disable immo that I can use at home instead of sending my ECUs around?

My 2 cents: I know it’s been in the works for a while. Buttoning that one up before adding more vehicles and more features would be awesome and a great way to generate revenue now.... maybe something similar to VCDS or Durametrics, with a custom cable you can record stuff in (like limited VIN, features enable/disable, etc,...)

Thanks again for the gigantic amount of work you’re putting in for the community. Hope you can get some of that investment back eventually...

Richard.

I'd be interested in that also!

 

I had this work done at AV, my 360 is now a beast. It really is incredible the difference.

Hey trev did you have a source in those carbon fiber axle shields.

 

don't like phone apps. laptop version available?

 

Me likey!

 

Is there going to be a software only version of the SAK? I have PLENTY of devices lying around gathering dust.

 

Why oh why couldn't you be in the USA Trev... I'd be booking a spot for my 360 for the "treatment".

Seriously, I'm sure I speak for many here... a truckload of gratitude to you sir. Amen.
