HP Tuners Stand Alone.....CORE ECU

[GNBRETT]

Anyone know if this will be available in the gen 3 Hemi platform? Satera just posted that they are doing one in a Magnum TT build. IDK if Jeremy is hacking into it to make it work with the hemi but he says its for LS setup but that hes about to change that...... Has digital dash option to.

From Satera:

"If you haven't, HPTuners has launched their very own Standalone, the Core ECU!!!!!
Currently, Its Plug and Play only for the Gen 3 and 4 LS setups, but we are about to change that😈

We are stoked to get this into our Twin Turbo Magnum, she will be a certified RIPPER!

Using the HPTuners CORE ECU, this means we can implement Flex Fuel, Rolling Antilag, Boost by Gear, and many more fun features, including a sick digital dash! So glad to get the nasty 20-year-old dated junk out, and the new hotness from HPTuners in!"

Supports up to 16 injectors and 8 coil packs
🟢Sequential fuel injection support
🟢Optional flex fuel integration
🟢Dual throttle body capability
🟢Built-in dual wideband controller for accurate air-fuel ratio monitoring
🟢Real-time tuning support with new VCM Live Software
🟢Data logging up to 150 channels at 1 kHz
🟢Advanced boost, nitrous, and launch control
🟢CAN bus support for seamless communication with external devices
🟢Motorsports-grade performance

It's very similar to the RACE gateway. Just allows you to use an aftermarket ECU. In this instance though I believe an HP Tuners harness is required. This means you would have to buy one similar to as if you were using a gen3 hemi with a Dominator stand alone.

It’s similar to a Holley without the race gateway.

Nope, not released for gen 3 hemi yet.

He is probably doing the R&D on it.

Sounds like he has the ability to make it work with a Gen 3 Hemi. Otherwise why would he be posting that? Maybe i'll give them a call today or monday. If I was gonna go stand alone I think id chose the HP version over the BS3.

I was told there were issues getting the trans to work properly with the BS3 Gateway. Maybe thats not an issue with the HP stuff but I think that issue with the trans has been resolved. Most ppl use HP Tuners to tune their car so it only makes sense to use the stand alone version id think.

I have yet to read one thread or watch one youtube video about someone who installed the Gateway and made their car work better or work at all. There just seems to be zero info out there on it.

I did speak with a guy over at Ripatuned cause he posted something about it and he says he has his truck working now but did have a trans issue that he thinks its resolved now but everyone seems so tight lipped about it. Terrible job promoting their product tho.

My friend uses the gateway and goes 8s

He was originally a 5.7, then went 6.4 but hit the limit of the 5.7 pcm for boost.

He was one of the first to have it.

Also its no different than tuning a dominator at that point. Rick Trunket at Big3 racing is well established with this. Im switching my Hellcat to it. And yes TCM support is not there. Thats a Holley issue. Holley only supports Ford and Gm transmissions.
