WARNING with new UpRev update, you loose your tune!

VitViper

Why are you bothering with UpRev on this platform? They've given this platform a big **** you with garbage software until they got serious competition from overseas.

UpRev didn't start offering new features because of ecutek; they started offering new features due to a change in management. You should probably do some fact checking before slandering the company.

Bold statement. I don't need to fact check a damn thing. I stated my opinion. Anyone with a brain could of come to the same conclusion. Here I'll spell it out for you:

- We purchased UpRev years ago. Found it extremely poor on the Nissan stuff.
- Zero new development, zero new features
- Ended up purchasing ECUTek which had a real timing map, advanced features.
- ECUTek works great, gets great praise for their system and their features
- Months/years later UpRev starts releasing similar updates just on the G37/370Z platform (don't see it on the 350Z... lolz?).

Even worse my UpRev dongle hasn't worked for almost a year in any computer I plug it into, so I can't even recoup my cost on the licenses.

I couldn't care less about their reasons or their excuses.

At the end of it all, I'm out thousands of dollars on the UpRev software and regret my decision to purchase their "solution". I'll continue to share my opinion on the subject whenever I feel like it, as I was an UpRev customer and am not even remotely pleased with their software or their support.

Good luck with that slander defense though.

Whoops didnt mean to quote.

I have ecutek and have really liked it, that said I am just learning tuning (on an entirely different platform) and can say one thing reading the new uprev software update is the ign map is adjustable real time!. If I were a tuner that would be a major convenience and something I don't think ecutek (or any other flash based tuner program) can do.

Not forgiving any previous uprev disappointments as I would feel burned too but nice to see a competitor to keep the platform active (since we don't get as much support as honda/Subaru/gtr). Kinda sad the 370z is kind of the red head step child of the performance world (limited software support as well as suspension mods, either budget or $$$ no in between) even though it is awesome cost per performer.

Our car is on our MoTeC M1 conversion now. Everything is live. I'll never go back to a stock ECU in the car, especially being we've got a turbo car. It was nice to have ECUTek when it was on the factory ECU, the results were quite good and involved no hassle.

Yea I saw yours and it is bad *** but I would not say it would be in the norm of what most would go. So for a flash based tuner software to have instant timing control I could see that being a very nice touch.

We have been trying to contact you this week, we would like to address the frustrations your having with our software as well as the issue with your cable, so that we can get it straightened out for you. Have you tried downloading the latest software from our support page: UPREV SUPPORT. There has been firmware and software updates since your original buy-in in 2014 including bug fixes and new features. And the ARC features have been released for not only the VHR platform but also the 350Z, Revup and HR engines.

It would have been nice to get a chance to fix things for you, we think you would be much happier with our software now. Also, despite your opinion, after hiring more developers, we have heard great feedback for our pro tuners and dealers about our improvements, and we're actually getting a lot of customers that are switching from ECUTek to UpRev for our live tuning, and better launch control and flat-foot shifting (which works on all models, including base models!), rolling anti-lag, and burnout mod features, as well as our ARC features including simplified timing for the 1MB 2008 G37 which they don't support racing features for. You can check out our Facebook page for links on some of the successes we've had.
