Blitz Power Con

[jeremk]

Hi guys,

Longtime lurker, but I was wondering after perusing Greenline's website has anyone used these Blitz Power Controllers? It seems Hondata flash is very popular on the forums, but I can't seem to find much information on the internet or on here about Blitz and their products.

What does everyone think?

Here is the link. Is it reliable?

Can’t find much info either but it looks to be a basic piggyback system.

Con’s of Piggyback ECU
1. Tuning. Some factory ECU’s can be next to impossible to use a piggy back ECU on. No matter how you try and trick them into doing what you want, they are too adaptive or too sensitive. Many times you will get the map right where you want it, and the ECU will “learn” and change so that the perfect map you just had, is now a map ready to cause catastrophic engine failure. Other times the car will run great, but the ECU will know something is not right and pop the check engine light on you, making the vehicle not emissions compliant. The list could go on. While on paper the piggyback sounds like a great idea, the reality is it just doesn’t work for every vehicle platform.

2. Can only control so much. When you don’t have the ability to actually change the fueling or timing of a car, you can only manipulate what you’re working with so much. This is why you will often read about how a piggy back ECU can only tune up to 500cc injectors, or is only good for 400 HP on a given engine, or you are fine as long as you keep the boost under 18 psi. We’re just making up numbers there, but you get the idea. You are working inside the parameters of something that was set from the factory and it can only be “TRICKED” to work so much.

3. Wiring. Usually you are intercepting signal wires or ECU wires, and because of this you will have to cut and modify your factory engine harness. While this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, just remember that things change, and in the future you may want to bail that piggyback and move to a full stand-alone. Having a hacked up ECU harness could lead to a messy situation.

Don’t know much but if you’re looking for a reliable piggy back system that you can even data log with get the jb4. Their are a few people on these and jb4 forums that have been using it for the last 10 thousand to 20 thousand miles with no issues. It’s a simple plug and use piggyback that will stop and let the ecu take full control if it sees something go out of parameters. Jb4 is very safe compared to other piggybacks from my research.
