Hi guys I been looking to get my TVR cerbera remapped for a long time now iv been trying to get it in to joolz but after a few years of trying it left me at a bit of a??? But I been reading about a ecu called syvecs and how the s6 was designed with the cerbera in mind also that it can give you a better all round better performance has any one got any info or comparison data from that ecu to the emerald or original???
Thanks
Thanks
Syvecs are great ECU s, I had one on a Subaru years ago. Lots of functionality but are expensive these days. Other good options might include Link (I am contemplating this for my Cerb LS) or even Emerald.
I wouldn’t assume the car will necessarily make much more peak power with “just” a remap but you can certainly make some small gains and generally improve the fuelling and general behaviour and such like. It’s not like taking a modern bmw twin turbo six cylinder and adding 50% more power with a map by throwing boost and fuel at it

Thanks guys yes iv talked to power and they said no change out of 5000 but from what I saw on the net the newish s7i syvec which is the upgrade. To the s6 is 3000 and iv been trying to get my cerb remapped for a few years now but it's been a nightmare so if this is a good exchange I'll go for it
Cheers guys its getting hold of joolz in 2 years I think I got hold of him once and power said £5000!! plus the new s7i syvecs seems to have a lot of engine protection features am not looking for crazy speed just good driveability and iv read some good results can be had and if they were designed with the TVR cerbera in mind. Well it's worth a look
Not sure why you haven't managed to make it work with Joolz
The only person I've paid serious money to work on my car is Joolz, he's a great guy to work with, and worth every penny
[quote]Emerald K6 ECU Upgrade
Aftermarket engine management systems are now a common addition to many performance cars .. we believe that the Emerald K6 ECU offers the best blend of value for money, performance features and reliability and is our ECU of choice for any standalone management upgrades we carry out.
A simple drive in drive out conversion onto a Speed Six engined car can be had for as little as £1600.00 by using your existing MBE ecu as part exchange. Extras ranging from self mapping capability through to traction control are all well within the unit's ability.

Ukkid35, iv been trying to get my car to joolz for ages I know he's busy and I've spoken to him once and he emailed me but for the last few month's or so iv been phoning and sending emails but nothing so I read about the syvecs and throught I'd give it a look see and with all the advances in technology it should be better than the old lot from what iv read and there is a you tube of a speed 6 on the rolling road with a syvecs map and it sounds good. Id like to get my cerb to joolz but iv had my car a good wile now and these specialists it's hard work and money so am at the stage where I just want what's good for my car and the Syvec is worth a look
Sorry, it's been a funny year (two years..) plus a few health issues. I'm back in work today but have been off for over 2 months with one thing and another (I shouldn't really be in work now but I can't have any more time off, the curse of the self employed..).
I've tried to reply to as many people as possible but I get a lot of emails and phone calls and I just lose track of everything sometimes.
On the upside, the syvecs is a great ecu so you won't be disappointed going that route. All the best with it all.

Hi all
Joolz contacted me but is way to busy but iv been reading up on the syvecs ECU and it seems that they were a hot topic around 2010 to 2012 seems syvecs did a kit s6 ecu for the speed 6 engine I found a few threads about a tamora and there's one on a 4.5 but I don't think that kit worked well on the v8s something about one lamber port or something so it seems to have faded out but syvecs has a new s7plus which I think they made to address the v8s. But I can't seem to find any recent threads about the syvecs s7plus and the cerbera V8 I'd like to hear if anyone is running the new s7plus and how it works with the v8
Thanks guys
Ps iv got someone looking into it for me from Horsham developments so ill let you know how it works out. But a lot of these tuning companies are race preparing and I just want a well mannered good driving car

Syvecs is way over-spec'd for a Cerbera. You are paying ££££ for features you will never use.
If Joolz can't do an Emerld for you, you could still get one fitted and take it to the main Emerald man himself Dave Walker. (He is the man behind Emerald)
Or.. Anything like DTA will also do the job very very well, depending on what your chosen mapper likes to use.

As said above we have them fitted to all our AJP8 race cars.Joolz contacted me but is way to busy but iv been reading up on the syvecs ECU and it seems that they were a hot topic around 2010 to 2012 seems syvecs did a kit s6 ecu for the speed 6 engine I found a few threads about a tamora and there's one on a 4.5 but I don't think that kit worked well on the v8s something about one lamber port or something so it seems to have faded out but syvecs has a new s7plus which I think they made to address the v8s.

They work perfectly, loads of scope to add extra sensors etc if you want.
We keep ours quite basic.
Cam sensor
Knock sensor
Duel wideband lambda
Fuel pressure x 2
Engine Temp x2
Oil pressure
air temp
intake temp
oil temp
gearbox oil temp
Dont expect much difference in top end power. Mid range does seem to be better power wise (that could just be different dynos) Everything is tune-able, for instance they spent a little bit more time on our latest car making sure it started nicely without a driver in the car. You just press the start button now and it jumps into life at a high idle that drops once a set temperature has been met.
