Another ECUTEK trial

batman_4

Not trying to hijack but I have one somewhat stupid question....I have looked but does one need a Windows based computer to get this to work once you get the cable and license? I ask because I currently do not have a Windows based computer at home (all Apple).

Yeah gotta have Windows. I also only have Mac and had to make a windows partition to be able to use the software.

Sorry guys had my grand child dump orange juice on laptop killed it dead. Just got it replaced last weekend.
I sent my logs to Seb after work so like 6pm Mountain time here and with in an hour he sent a revised tune. Very smooth acceleration, and trans shifts much harder when jumping on it.
I will do some more logging and resent this weekend although it is night and day already from factory. I love the throttle response!
I can't believe how fast Seb responded, especially after how long it took me to send him my logs.

Seb is the man no doubt about it.

I think I paid about $800 for remote tuning from Sebastian from Specialty -Z.
The guy knows what he's doing and responds very quickly.

what mods have you done before tuning? I have an AT7 as well and only have short ram and exhaust. I don't plan on doing any more mods just looking for a better driving experience since I spend a lot of time in the car.

wideglideleon

Full CBE exhaust including High flow cats, stock headers, G3 Stillen intake that's all the engine mods I have done. I really like the throttle response and the smooth power band since the tune.

BboyZ

WOW, that weird.. I have boosted RSX for a long time, might not be relevant but never had any problem on emission. only thing I can tell is when my rsx first emission it has KPRO already.

wideglideleon

Yes I am NA. Nothing special with my mods Berk cats, FI catback and Stillen gen 3 intake and ECUTEK tune.
Weird for sure!, as stated earlier I will update what happens after reflashing back to factory tune.
Between this and my not so good luck with Z1's upper control arms the mod bug is fast leaving my system.

Sounds good man. The risk here is when you fail they put a big "FAILED" note on your VIN so there's no getting around it anymore. They want to see if fixed. Your issue isn't too costly, but I have no cats and ecutek tuning Won't have to deal with it for a few more years but will be curious to see how it goes! Good luck bro!

I flashed the ECU this am back to factory, I forgot how bad the throttle response is from the factory arrrgh. I need to put around a hundred miles or so then Ill make another trip to the emission facility. I will keep everyone informed if that fixes it or if I need to go get a waver.

ZRed

Here's another option, just move states

birdman71

I'll be doing ECUTek here soon too and I'll be putting either Motordyne ART pipes or FI Res HFC on first before I do so haha

As for emissions, Before I bought this car I made sure I had a shop lined up to just pay off for a Pass on my emissions and decibels tests. I know I won't pass lol
Keep us informed on your results
