if your asking about software that is end user editable, I can't answer you. If on the other hand you asking about the software that professional shops use, its already out, and we are using it on customers cars every day.

Yes, this is what I am asking for as I do not posess the knowledge to self tune my car.

But it is known that not All features of ECUTek's tuning suite is out yet, correct? So when will these last few features come online to tuners?

No worries, completely agree. :tup:


I'm not hating on ECUTek at all, I want to see their product come out, and I want to see good gains so that when I get the $$ set aside, I can go to RTTuning and get mine done.

I just don't wanna have to go back multiple times as new features get released cause it's a long trip. :bowrofl:

^thissss.
Exactly what I wanted to know as well... The answers are all the same tho.. And it's not even answering the question. I gave up lol. I'll jus wait for my tuner to give me a straight answer.

They can also etune you as well. Places like Z1 offer it too, where if you have the cable you hook up your car, drive around and send them the data and they email you a new tune. Do that back and forth and you're set, not as sexy as a dyno tune though.

you keep asking me the same question, and I am pretty much giving you the same answer; I don't know when the map switching version of the racerom patch will get to us.

based on what we have for the GTR, and the new updates to that suite, and the devotion on the guys in GB to always being on the bleeding edge, I would bet within the next few weeks. But that's a guess on my part, not official.

Now, for those of you on the fence with this, let me explain how the file system works; once you get your file done, and the car is calibrated, as racerom and/or base calibration files (the factory updates), your file, for your car is updated here, automatically, and ported out to you via email.

Likewise, as you go thru your modifications, and return data to us, your file is recalibrated, and sent out. If there is an update pending, we will let you know, and get that taken care of at that time.

Now, this is nothing new to us. We do this with ALL the platforms we calibrate. Its part of the service we provide, and comes with your calibration purchase.

Hope that answers your question, and a few others, finally...........

Luckily, my tuner is fairly close (<1hr), but since I have the tune loaded, I don't have to go back for updates (like when map switching becomes available). All I need is the cable and my tuner can email me an updated tune, whether it has updated tuning adjustments or new features or both. As diddy said, they can do full remote tuning via you data logging some drive cycles. And as Joe mentioned, you can dyno tune after the drive cycle tune to get the maximum performance out of the car.

You have the patience of Job. :tiphat: I think most of the frustration of other members was caused by another shop/tuner and you are catching a lot of the flack for it. Thank you for going to such great pains to explain things even if it's not official.

What would it take to get EcuTek on here to officially explain what is going on?

Personally I could care less about multiple maps. I have 5 maps loaded right now with UPREV and I can count on one hand how many times I have changed maps. So kind of worthless ... to me and IMHO.

VVEL and the traction control stuff are bigger deals to me. More timing options as well.

All I know is if it is good enough for guys to slap on their 100K GTRs well then by golly, I think my little 35K sled will be alright with it. :tup:

Yes, I keep asking because the answer was never a simple Yes, Date:______ or No, or We don't know. Thank you for finally saying you don't know. There is no harm in it as I'm not on a tuning timeline right now.

Big announcement!!

We are pleased to announce another feature to our turbo kit system!

EcuTEK will be available as an option with our Turbo Kit that has some great features listed below.
  • Boost control. Yes, that means the factory ECU will be able to control boost which means having different boost levels via map switching. This eliminates the need for a standalone boost controller.
  • Boost Cut protection
  • Hybrid MAF/Speed Density Tuning
  • VVEL and VVT Tuning
  • Flat Foot Shifting
  • Flex Fuel (E85)
Stay tuned for more details.

We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting payment since we have a better idea of when the kits will start shipping and are getting closer to our estimated shipping target of June/July. Shipping the kits will be first come, first serve. So once the kit is paid via one of our payment options, you will be added to the shipping list in the order received.

Also, we will be starting another group buy for everyone that wishes to have our new baffled oil pan.

I'll ask again. Are the above features available now?

:icon18: :iagree:

I will ask this question again. When can we start seeing some actual dyno graphs because it has been a month at least if not longer? I am a number's guys, so I love to see graphs & figures. Please show me some actual solid figures on what this great product has done. I do not mind reading, but I'm not a huge reader. I just keep reading blaah blaah he said/she said nuance.

PROOF & FIGURES DO NOT LIE, but can be deceiving in a way.

Alstann 06-12-2013 08:51 AM

I'm assuming when the MHI TT kits start shipping out and getting installed, we'll all have our proof. I personally went EcuTEK myself. We'll see what happens. ^^

That's what I'm waiting for. I'll give it a couple of months. I'm not particularly interested in being a guinea pig for Ecutek on a FI 370.

I have made this offer before, but here gos again; you pay for your dyno time, before and after, and I'll give you the calibration for free. This way you can make up your own mind, and help the other folks on the board do the same.
