ECUTEK - Everything

So can someone explain exactly what the "flat foot shifting" is? I have heard of it before as in shifting with out taking your foot off the gas but was curious if this was the same thing. And how it works

Yes, shifting without lifting off the gas pedal - EcuTek - Flat-Foot Shifting

OPPSS

Yea

, I was dealing with him for week-10days to get my tune completed a while back. I have the thread on here. My UPREV Vs ECUTEK.

Yep I was talking to Seb about the FI car he Etuned

hjo1078 · 10-30-2015, 08:44 AM

Email is the best way to get a hold of him. He responds to emails in the order they are received. And with that said he dyno tuned my car last night at pure automotive. I was completely surprised bc we havent really been in touch, but him and my shop worked for 20 hrs yesterday and got my tune done really late last night so i havent gotten all the details yet. I'll wait for him to contact me bc i think he drove all the way back to ct from md after he was done.

Oh yeah im officially in the 700whp club.
Only thing i know is that it was tuned on e70.

Great numbers and congratulations! I think they tune to e70 to compensate for any margin of error with the flex fuel sensor. I have yet to get an ethanol reading of above 83%.

hjo1078 · 10-30-2015, 09:28 AM

thankyou hotrodz, Man you get up to 83% ? highest ive been seeing around my way is like 72-73% Either way im very happy and cant wait to see what 700 feels like =)

Hotrodz · 10-30-2015, 10:58 AM

I can't imagine 700, 600 is a wild ride...yep, the ethanol here is pretty good stuff. I consistently at 82! Can't wait to hear your review...

hjo1078 · 10-30-2015, 12:27 PM

well once i pick her up in i'll def write up a review for you guys.

cooltoy · 10-30-2015, 12:28 PM

Thank you.

i can name some advantages for you, but as far as disadvantages i cant think of any.

1. on the fly map switching, im pretty sure i wasnt able to do this on uprev but its very useful for me when im on the street and someone tries to test me, I can switch to map 4 and call it a day all while driving.
2. Flex fuel- Lets u run any mixture of pump gas or ethanol, or e85 whatevers convenient for u.
3. Built in TRC with a temp highjack
4. Launch control- super easy to engage, easy as turning vdc off, put into gear, and hit the gas and clutch at the same time.
5. no lift shifting- you can shift while never letting go of ur gas.
6. No need for a boost controller

and i cant think of anything else at the moment.

oh damn i thought of a disadvantage: You cant self tune with ecutek but with uprev you can. But im no tuner so its not really a disadvantage.

i wish i knew the answer bro, all i know is that it is still utilizing the solenoid from my old boost controller, thats why i was selling my boost controller without the solenoid. Ask your tuner about it, he may be able to give u better answers. My boost controller just ended up being a boost gauge for a while so i took it out. i dont miss it or anything lol
