Pulling the ECU on my S65
So tomorrow I am pulling my ECU out of my 2007 S65 to send to Jerry at Eurocharged. My question is which battery do I disconnect? The starter battery or the big boy in the trunk? I know about where the trunk battery is but I haven't started digging for it yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

Very interesting. I have been pondering the same as I also have an S65.
Been reading a lot and it seems to be working great. Also a lot of great feedback about Eurocharged.
Could you please post any improvements you feel once you get the ECU back and gone for a spin test?
And are you doing "only" the ECU or are you doing the TCU as well?

Well I did it and it worked perfectly.
All I can say really is WOW! I would swear that the turbo spool up is much more pronounced after the tune. It now just seems like she is always ready to play no matter what. The power that this V12TT makes with a Eurocharge is unreal! It almost hurts your chest under full throttle. On Friday I plan on bringing my S65 to the track to see what she can do. Should be interesting since the last time I went to the track was about 17 years ago with my old crossfire Corvette.

Well I found out that you do NOT in fact have to disconnect either battery actually. Jerry told me to just make sure the keys were at least 20 feet away from the car and that I could just go ahead and pull the ECU.

I'm looking forward to hearing about your track results too. Many years ago I had an '84 Vette with the Crossfire injection. Pretty embarrassing to have a Vette with so little power. Tuned port made a big difference starting in '85.

Well I took the S65 to the track the other day and I am a bit embarrassed to post my results. I ended up able to run the car only one time before they told me I was done.
I ended up getting a bit excited at the tree and just spun the freaking tires off the line. Once she hooked and went it was fantastic. So I ended up pulling a 12.9. I wanted to go again but like I said they pulled me over and said " well the good news is your car is fast as hell but the bad news no more racing for you until you get a helmet. No luck for me after that. I will try again sometime soon hopefully. I will also practice my launches beforehand.
