The G5 Voodoo Pro is Link Engine Management’s current flagship wire-in ECU. It runs on the G5 platform — the successor to G4X — and expands drive output count, adds native direct injection capability, and brings WiFi and onboard GPS to the platform without external modules.

Software — PCLink
PCLink is the same software used for all G4X ECUs. G4X map files open directly in a G5 Voodoo Pro — tuners do not need to relearn the software or rebuild calibrations from scratch. PCLink is a free download. WiFi connection allows real-time tuning without a USB cable.
Link CAN Files: User-created CAN configurations can be saved, locked and shared independently of the main map file — useful for fleet builds and customer-locked base maps.

Required Connectors (Not Included)
The G5 Voodoo Pro uses three Super Seal connector kits, purchased separately:
For direct injection: LinkECU DI Driver-4 required (or compatible OEM DI driver box).
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I load my existing G4X map into the G5 Voodoo Pro?
Yes. PCLink opens both G4X and G5 map and log files in the same software instance. A G4X map can be loaded directly into a G5 Voodoo Pro, which significantly reduces re-tuning time for tuners migrating existing builds.
Does the G5 Voodoo Pro support direct injection natively?
The ECU supports direct injection control signals but requires an external high-side driver — either the LinkECU DI Driver-4 or a compatible OEM DI driver box. The ECU alone cannot drive DI injectors without this additional hardware.
How many cylinders can the G5 Voodoo Pro run?
Up to 12 cylinders with sequential injection and direct spark ignition. Up to 6 rotors with sequential injection and direct spark. Up to 8 cylinders with staged port + direct injection and wasted spark.
Are the connectors included?
No. The G5 Voodoo Pro requires three Super Seal connector kits (A, B and E), each sold separately. All three are stocked at XTRA Motorsport.
Can I tune via WiFi?
Yes. The G5 has onboard WiFi which supports a real-time PCLink connection — the same live tuning, logging and monitoring available over USB, without the cable.
What is the difference between the 12 injection and 16 injection figures quoted in various listings?
The ECU has 16 injection pins total, but 4 of those are multi-purpose pins — each can be configured as injection OR ignition, not both simultaneously. The effective dedicated injection output count is 12, with 4 additional flexible pins that can extend injection capacity if no additional ignition outputs are needed.
