My kit has arrived! WOOOOOP!

I recommend taking it to JTran. Nothing against Kozmic, he definitely knows his ****, but he doesn't tune Ecutek. Ecutek is the way to go.

Yeah I need to talk to him here soon about that.
Since I want to go e85 and upgrading a few items when the SC comes back I would like to migrate over to Ecutek but he is strictly Uprev still.

I'm making the E85 jump too just not sure when. I guess when I feel comfortable dropping another $1800-2000 on the car.

Agreed, and I ultimately want Ecutek. If the Uprev tune is OK - I may just wait. I had originally ordered the Ecutek version of the kit, but Gamma doesn't have it ready yet... I am hoping they will help me out with a switch like they offered to GrooveStyle. When I spoke to Amin about it I just remember him saying "We can talk about it when we have the Ecutek solution" or something like that. So far he has been great to work with, so I am not terribly worried.

One thing... now that Sam is out of the picture at Gamma I am not sure who would be doing the tune and what their track record is - so that is a question mark.

In what neighborhood is the price tag for Ecutek + custom tune?

I'm going to guess between $600-800.

Is that an educated guess? Or an arbitrary one? That seems very reasonable to me...

Somewhat educated. I know what their Uprev tunes cost as I have one and I added a little pad because from my research Ecutek is slight higher.
