Building the Speeduino Standalone ECU - Against the Clock

Published 2021-05-13
I build a Speeduino standalone ECU from scratch, configure it and run my car with it! All against the clock!

The Speeduino is THE best value standalone out there and it's the cheapest way to get into tuning your own car!

    As a fellow car enthusiast (on a budget) and IT guy, this is exactly what I want. I do a lot of tinkering with SBC's, mainly Raspberry Pi's, and your previous video pointed me in the direction of Speeduino and I'm already planning my build. Better yet, being Australian, it's local for me too!
  • @ronwalsh
    I just received my Speeduino board, now I just need to order up the parts to populate it. Thanks for posting this one.
  • @danzicarelli436
    I have been wanting to build a stand alone ecu for years now. I have experience with arduino and soldering. Thank you for making the videos. Information like this helps make it easier to get into a project like this.
  • @OpenLogicEFI
    Amazing to see more love for the speeduino project. There are many variants of Speeduino Compatible ECU's also. Josh allowing this to be an open source project has empowered some of us to make our own. For me it started as refining the project for my own car. This gained traction and I now design and sell my own Speeduino Compatible variants.

    This is the most well presented speeduino channel I’ve run across! I subscribed after your last video and I’ll probably get a speeduino because of you! Thank you for putting these videos together and I hope your having a good one.
  • @rorygills8329
    Currently my favourite new channel. Really enjoy the presentation style, all the info is there, good sense of humour. What's not to love?
  • @topd7566
    Fantastic content, please keep making videos as well presented and info dense as this 🙏 you’re a great value to the community and myself
  • Just discovered this channel and definitely impressed by the amount of detail and ease of information.
  • Thank you so much for introducing this ecu to me, I am working on boosting a 08 scion tc right now and this ecu has solved my issue with not wanting to spend 1k or more on another standalone and it makes this dream now possible for me. This was my first car and decided I wanted to keep and have the best time I could with it.
  • @Tom-lw8qk
    Super excited to make use of this on one of my projects! I can't wait to see where this channel goes, especially keen to see how those itbs pan out
  • @AruEsse
    I'm one of those who subscribed with last video. Definitely a great concept for a channel and one that has already carved its own niche
  • @paullatour7012
    The timing for this video could not have been better! Awesome job!
  • @elek101
    This channel is definitely one of my favourites, cant wait for the next video to come out :)
  • @asicdathens
    You should try : 1 conformal coating 2. Solder the Arduino Mega directly to the main board 3. Design & 3dprint an enclosure for your hardware with gasket, proper mounting of the connectors on the enclosure even have your own logo on the case
  • @BearFulmer
    I'm glad I found your channel I build a megasquirt years ago, and now I just try to build data loggers for automotive off and on when I can figure stuff out, it's really cool to see this stuff is even more popular now and I'm hoping to put one of these together I got a couple engines I could run this with
  • @jasonkillbourn
    This is a complete game changer for engines like the 1ZZ, which had previously not been economically viable to tune, thanks to the exorbitant price of standalone ECU's, as you could just do a 2ZZ swap for the same money. But now good 2ZZ's are getting thin on the ground, and you can get 3 or 4 1ZZ's for the same price.. well, this just opens them up to all sorts of modifications. Hayabusa throttle bodies, and forced induction spring instantly to mind. Bloody marvelous :-)
  • @GutZ_47
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS I REALLY APPRECIATE THE KNOWLEDGE. EXCITED TO START MY SPEEDUINO BUILD FOR MY 22RE!
  • @Buchta179
    This is the best thing i have ever seen. will be building one for my turbo d16 project.
  • @mica4153
    I've been waiting for someone to vouch for speeduino. This is the push i need. cheers!
