Yes you're very lucky with a SARD ECU, but don't expect it to give amazing improvements over the factory unit, maybe a couple HP and more torque. But the rev limit will most likely be raised and the speed limit gone.

Mr Revhead did back to back dyno runs with a SARD ecu and stock toyota ecu in his ae101 and picked up 9rwkw and torque came on sooner and held for longer on a VERY low reading dyno.

i think the SARD ecus are programmed to each car... not sure

but i expect you wil be getting some good gains on that......
just always run it on 98.

thats a hardish thing to find....

By taking care, do you mean thrashed? Cause funnily enough, Japanese people also modify their cars to make them go faster

Have you had your car dynoed? If not you should.
I saw you ran a 16s 1/4 which isn't very good but i guess the carib would be quite a bit heavier than a levin.
