Pulled my stock ECU tonight. I'll be shipping it out to Desmo-Porsche tomorrow for a re-flash to DP spec for $250.00. That's easily the best price I've found so I'm jumping on it. [moto] Thanks to Vin for the heads-up!  |

Beats what I paid for an FIM ecu... Nice find  They do more than trim adjustments or what? |

Amazing prices for new DP ECU  What's the catch, because I would love to upgrade to DP ECU for my S4RS. |

Can they do any other cool stuff along with the DP upgrade? I remember the FIM ecu could use the check engine light as a blinking shift light - that would be kinda cool.

That is a good deal, especially if I could get the immobilizer disabled at the same time.
The website and ebay store show ~$400. It looks like this is for them to send you a new/remanufactured one. Is it less if you send yours in?
Thanks

This is one of the emails I got from them. For this kind of money I'm not sure why anyone would buy a new dash,ECU,lock-set. They even blow Silverback away. I'll be the Guinea-pig, my ECU is already on it's way to them. I'll report back when it returns. They can disable o2 and immobilizer or leave them active, your choice. Hi, Yes we do this in house. If you send me your old ECU it will be $250.00 + shipping. If you want to keep your core we have them on our website. http://www.desmoporsche.com/product_info.php?products_id=273 Ride Safe & Often Bobby t: 713-222-2332 f: 713-222-2173 m: 832-715-1284 w: www.desmoporsche.come: bobby@desmoporsche.com |

Please do keep us posted...I cannot believe what a good price it is. The cynic in me wants to say it 's too good...but then again, many seems to have cracked the ECU code...  Best of luck and we look forward to your review! |

Is this going to be a plug and play setup? You tell them what exhaust and air box and they re-flash ECU. You reinstall and all is good with the world?

I believe it is just a flash to the DP Termi kit ECU spec. I plan on getting a PC3 if I go with pods but I have talked to others that say the Termi map works with a full system and open air-box. I mainly want the O2 and immobilizer gone, the richer map is just icing. As plug and play as the DP ECU. |

With the money saved I'll also be buying the $200 VDSTS software so I can reset TPS and adjust trim on my own.

I asked them about my setup plans: I have a 2006 Monster 620 that I'd like to get the immobilizer disabled on and am hoping you have some existing maps that will move it closer to the tuning I need. I'm looking at installing pods and a much more free flowing exhaust. Do you have a map like that? Maybe something like an open airbox and aftermarket pipes... and this was the response: Hi,
We have it.
Its $400 + shipping. Or $250.00 + shipping to flash your ECU.

Bobby It sounds like they have this, but there wasn't much to the answer... |

Bobby is the real deal. Good guy/he'll take care of you. He's done ECU work for me before, always happy I believe Monstermash also does ECU work as well, and he's a sponsor!  |

I'm curious to see how this works out. I have been needing to have mine flashed for a while to remove the immobilizer so that I can install a new gauge pod. The best price i could find was $300 back in last June from the Ducati Depot. They offer a guarantee with their work. http://www.ducatidepot.com/ducati-depot-ecu-programing.phpHere is the email I received. Walter, No problem, we can get you set up with those parameters. If you provide your ecu, the cost is $300 (shipping included back to you via USPS Express). If you need us to provide the ecu core, the cost is $450 (same terms). BTW, all service is guaranteed to work or your money back. Currently the turn-around time is 2-3 weeks, so please be sure to take that into consideration as well. Let me know if you are interested and I can get you started. Thanks for the email. Regards, Tom Eubank www.ducatidepot.com |

O yeah Don't forget to have the TPS reset after you install the ECU. |
