Bosch Oil Temperature and Pressure sensor

The Bosch Oil Temperature and Pressure Combined Sensor provides accurate and reliable monitoring of oil temperature and pressure. Ensure optimal engine performance and longevity with this advanced sensor.

Introducing the ME360 Standalone ECU and Patch Harness, specifically designed for the Mazda MX5 NC models (2006-2014). This cutting-edge engine management system revolutionizes your MX5's performance and unleashes its true potential.

The ME360ECU offers unmatched control over every aspect of your engine, from fuel injection to ignition timing. With its advanced algorithms and precise tuning capabilities, you can optimize power delivery, enhance throttle response, and achieve remarkable torque gains. Experience a whole new level of driving pleasure as your MX5 comes alive on the road or track.

Designed as a direct fit for the Mazda MX5 NC, the included patch harness ensures a seamless integration with your vehicle's existing wiring. No need for complicated modifications or splicing of wires—simply plug in the harness and enjoy hassle-free installation. The ME360 ECU perfectly complements the Mazda MX5 NC's engine, unlocking its true potential with reliability and performance and allowing for Turbocharge, Supercharge and ITB conversions.

It retains all the factory functions, except cruise control and DSC. There are many advantages which include:

  • Real-time tuning, resulting in better maps and a much improved tuning process
  • Electronic boost control (much better spool, possibility to do boost-by-gear)
  • Support for any aftermarket race dash (CAN-based)
  • Engine-saving features based on any number of sensors (oil parameters, fuel pressure, AFR etc)
  • Flex-fuel and a myriad of other configuration options not available with the stock ECU

The M360 ECU is a feature rich and future proof four, six and eight cylinder injection engine management system. Built from the ground up using the latest control strategies means a modern, powerful, VE based ECU, with enhanced feature set including closed loop boost, in-built Wideband Lambda Control, DSP Knock Control, on-board data Logging and VVT control – all in a compact form factor. Massive IO means the ME360 can handle anything thrown at it, and custom tables means any specific algorithms required can be easily derived.

There’s no hidden/costly unlocks or extra charges for the tuning software.
