If you want to be able to reflash it yourself you will need to purchase the interface cable, but you do NOT need to purchase a license, so that will save you some money. With the basic interface cable you will be able to reflash the ECU and datalog, but since you're boosted you're pretty much out of luck with etuning. No protuners that I know of will tune forced induction remotely.

If you want to be able to tune it yourself or have someone else tune it locally you will need the tuner version (tuner add on since you have the license already), and you will have to start from scratch with the tune. No way to modify the tune that's currently on the ECU without getting ahold of the original tuned rom from the original tuner.

Feel free to PM me directly if you have any questions about how it all works..
Hey thanks a lot for your reply, this is exactly the information I needed!

Shame to hear I won't be able to get another tune due to being boosted but I'm not surprised.. Makes sense, there is just too much that can go wrong with FI to tune it remotely.

Maybe I'll try getting in touch with Kaizen again and speaking with someone else to see if they can poke around and find the old maps.

If all else fails, ECUtek is always an option. Seems there are 2 standard tuners and 1 master ecutek tuner semi-local to me
