Dicktator on polo vivo

Post by Nqobilay86 »

Hi guys, please assist, I have recently installed dicktator 60-2 on my polo vivo but since installation, my idle is not stable and car stalls and late response to acceleration and does not go above 3000 revs. So car is very boring since this management system installation. Can anyone please help with a good dicktator installer and tunner I'm in Pretoria. The guy who installed my system is telling me that Dicktator does not have throttle wires / drive by wires so he suggests I convert to drive by cable of which I do not think it's a good idea, hence I'm looking for someone else who knows what they are doing with dicktator.

Couple of questions, why did you put a dictator on your vivo? Was it tuned properly? Sounds like a tuning issue to me. You know some people do remap the vivo ecu if you were looking for more power?

My ecu had problems and my mechanic advised me to install dicktatoramd this is the same guy who installed it and he took me to Performance Art for running,. They all agreed that I used drive by cable, which I don't think is right, so I don't wanna work with these guys anymore hence I'm asking for someone else

I think he advised dicktator because he saw I had Branches And free flow, I didn't even know About management, he started Explaining that I will have more power etc. And I was sold. Lol

2 year thread revival since last post.

Have a look on Dicktators website, they have dbw ecu too now if you want Dicktator or you can opt for another make with dbw too.

It is all up to you and who ever will be installing and tune this for you.
