Simtek ECU
Hi All
I bought a Simtek / Alcatek ECU some months ago to use on a Bugeye that I had at the time, since then I have changed to a Hawkeye which it obviously cant be used on.
I havent advertised sooner as the unit has been with Alcatek for 4 months, bit of a back log I am told! It arrived back with me today.
The unit I believe is a 2008 and came off a late Blobeye. It has had the firmware upgrade and been fully tested etc and is working as normal.
Launch control and antilag enabled.
£525 delivered.
Pictures in the link below.
Cheers
Pricey

That is a real bargain at that price, I paid £650 for my old Simtek about 2 years ago.
Do you know if it has the anti-lag and launch control enabled? It would be worth stating just to help with the sale.

It will fit any new age model which has a throttle cable fitted.
So it will fit all JDM Bugeye, Blobeyes and Hawkeye models and all UK Bugeye and Blobeye models.

I know, i did ask for the title to be changed to Alcatek not Simtek but that shouldn't make any difference really.
Especially as it has had the firmware done and been checked over by Alcatek. I am gutted I cant use it, really wanted a Toucan!
