My tuner said he isn't comfortable messing with it unless it's his own vehicle because of the lack of data out there with the product being so new. You guys can moan about lack of results all you want, but until someone in our community is willing to step up and try it, I don't see how you can blame the software or the tuners

Please note that I'm not arguing about anything other than the claims that the EcuTek software only has the same features released as UpRev because that isn't true. There are some features still being developed like map switching and traction control (those are the ones in which I'm interested). I'm waiting on those just like the rest of you...


I've seen the ECUtek software and had the many (and I mean many) tables explained to me by visconti. Since I currently have the tuner version of Uprev I can say for sure there's a lot more in the ECUtek software.

As far as VVEL tuning goes though, it really shouldn't be up to a 370Z owner to risk their car with no assurances that they will get it back in one piece. Considering the fact this is what many (if not most) of us are waiting for before jumping from Uprev to ECUtek I don't think it's too much to ask for them to make verifying VVEL their number one priority. Hell I'd be willing to offer up my car for testing as long as I know I'll get it back with the motor intact. All I want is a guarantee that if they damage the motor (ie valves crashed into the pistons) that they will fix it at no cost to me.

In the end, once VVEL tuning is being done and more importantly tuners aren't "afraid" to do it I'll be jumping from Uprev to ECUtek.
