Third-party ECUs to the rescue. Problem solved.

• joezydeco 4y ago
  Automotive systems are distributed all over the car and constantly check on each other. I have a suspicion it's not that simple anymore. Even my piece of shit 2012 Chrysler marries the power distribution module to the ECU.

    There's always a way.

    There's aftermarket PDMs and BCUs and all those parts already. That's how most people are doing motor swaps on modern cars. It's not a simple job, but it's also not the most difficult. Just a lot more wiring than the motor swaps of old.

  They are usually very expensive.

    Yes, if you want plug n play power, this new mustang is a poor choice. I've heard Chevy LS builds / platforms are the way to go if you want massive power per roi dollar.

  Will be an interesting space to watch. Traditional engines are easy as they all use the same ECU controlled parts (coil firing, crank/cam sensors, pressure/temp/airflow sensors, etc). You either reuse the existing ones if its known how they work, or just replace them. Not sure if there are any 3rd party motor controllers that can replace the OEM tesla one for example and put out more power.
