Osiris Standard
Osiris Standard includes Cipher and utilizes the Cipher cable to reflash and communicate with the vehicle through the OBDII Diag Port. Osiris Standard also includes Map Switching allowing you to use different tunes for different situations and 3 eTune updates you can use at any time.

Osiris Standard is a licensed based system meaning your license will be transferred to the first ECU that is flashed. This vehicle can then be flashed as many times as the user wants, but the flash will not work on any different vehicles. One additional license can be purchased at a discount for enthusiasts that may have more than one vehicle, contact us for details.

Parameters that we will tune include:

Up to 5 Maps on cruise control equipped vehicles
Idle RPM
Speed Limiter
Electronic Throttle Control to achieve Wide Open Throttle at all speeds.
Rev Limiter
DTC disable
AFR Targets
Fuel Compensation
Ignition Timing Advance
Cam Phasing for equipped vehicles.

Kinda a disappointment for $550 + tune + your time.

I think that many people get a CAI and catback exhaust for the brand, looks, and the sound. Some may get them for the the primary reason of performance. The uprev tune really gives nothing worthwhile in return compared with the Hondata Flashpro for instance. Just for reference, here is a video of a Civic Si I/H/E vs a Civic Si I/H/E/Flashpro. Can the uprev do this?

You've made it clear you don't see its worth it, and I respect that.
Not everyone is going to agree on every topic in here? So will leave it at that and move on. Have a Great Day

What's missing right now is the ability to tune VVEL (no system can control that at the moment) -- with that, I think we'll see even better gains out of tuning.

Anyway, completely different platforms, so apples and oranges.

That video proves nothing, show me dyno graphs, were the mods exactly the same minus the flashpro, one drive better than another. The list goes on & on why that video is horrible.

Uprev can do a lot already with the 370z, not sure why lately people have been expecting it to do more. The Z is fairly well tuned from factory, throwing on bolt ons has shown no real need for a tune unless you want to bring your AFR back if it went crazy. Not everything is about HP/TQ.

I am looking for a tuning solution for the 370z and it appeared that the uprev tune is the only solution right now. I guess I will wait.

Hypertech does have a unit available for the 370z. It is called the Power Programmer. They claim:

Performance Gains
Premium Octane : + 6 HP @ 6850 rpm, + 10 Ft-Lbs @ 2450 rpm

Check it out through the link below. The unit also allows you to flash back to stock whenever you want. Some forum vendors offer this for around $350-$400.

Performance is our Passion - Hypertech

The Uprev tune makes the most out of the mods you have. Most guys with the Uprev tune already had intake and exhaust mods; the Uprev tuned still gained 10 -15 HP over that. Also, Uprev added torque back to the low to mid range, and it ensures you A/F ratios are good. That is great for me now.

I will be getting ANOTHER tune when/if the VVEL is cracked.

I still remember when VTEC for the integras first came out. Everyone was waiting for a way to manipulate the VTEC. It eventually happened.

I feel you though. That's pretty much my plan on tuning my Z.

I'm up in the air right now with the Uprev. I don't mind at all forking the dough out on it. And there's no doubt it can help. But all the research I've done lately, I don't see where it's helping to much. Even in the A/F ratio department. I'm only referring to mods such as CAI, TP's, and CBE.

98intrique (member here) only netted 3hp and the A/F ratio was the same across the board. He had tested three different scenarios. Even had added a manifold on top of all the other three breather mods. Even Josh from Stillen said there should be no issues with just three breather mods, but a fourth would throw A/F off.

Now without going into detail I'm aware of the other purposes of the Uprev such as throttle response and such. Just don't know what I'm going to do. Knowing me I'll get it just so there's no issues. I'll probably install my mods, have them dyno'd and go from there. What do you think?

That's right, don't expect much more gains in the upper RPM range, but expect improvements in the low to mid-RPM range, where we do most of our driving...that's what people are reporting and dyno charts are showing. Optimizing A/F ratio is the other big bonus. The other previously mentioned features are minor bonuses. The Uprev tune is good to have whether or not someone intends to do forced induction in the future.

Nitrouz, did you go back to your tuner to try again, or are you taking a drive to Seattle and giving it a shot there at some point in time?
