I bricked my ECU flashing a basemap and now I'm very paranoid to flash again.

I figure my best bet is to have an ECU specifically for tuning, so I can have the stock one for when I need it, or if I brick the other somehow.

Do I need to stick with a Ralliart ECU from my specific year? Or can it be any ralliart ECU or any SST evo X? If I got anything other than my year's ralliart ECU would I just have to flash the ralliart map before starting up the car?


Thanks!! I can't wait to get this thing flashed.... Stock is so mushy!

Just pull out your bricked ecu and bench-flash it. Wire up a harness and follow the directions shown here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...h-process.html and here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...d-reflash.html

Once you have a setup all put together, just keep it around and you'll not have to worry about it again. Much cheaper than a second ecu.

Awesome, thanks. I was just thinking about the extra ECU because I've been searching the junkayards and you can find 2008 MR ecu's for like 100 bucks.
