John, Would you mind answering his question?

This is entertaining and informative at the same time, and I appreciate everyone's comments. One person said they are happy with ecutek, 10 people being critical (and rightfully so), and an ecutek tuner which says he can deliver some results but it is still in beta with no one saying they have worked with him. I have not heard anything positive or negative against any particular tuner. I am curious why ecutek's business model is to let tuners represent them and they while they say nothing. I am wondering if ecutek's business model is fatally flawed. It sounds like some sharp folks that know ecus but don't know how to make it into a good business.

Keeps the feedback coming! I have $$$ to spend on a tune and appreciate the opinions.

Having Visconti as a spokesperson is a lot like ... well, it's a lot like having me as a spokesperson. Ie, not a particularly bright idea.

I have more than one thread on here talking about performance/power gains with the flash I have to offer. They were posted almost immediately after I started this thread. I've discussed in detail why EcuTek's approach works better than other solutions, even posting up datalogs with notes explaining whats happening in the logs. For a while I was the only EcuTek dealer here actually posting up any results to show..maybe I am still the only one?
There has also been a few customers who have posted here with positive things to say , one was about their switch from UpRev to EcuTek.

Like it or not - For those who have been asking EcuTek sells directly to tuners, not customers. EcuTek is a tool that tuners like myself use. EcuTek does have a retail version of their BRZ software, but it's resold via it's dealer network. Maybe they'll offer a 370z version.. Another difference is EcuTek sells their programming suits separately, and it's not cheap. Anyone dealer that owns the 370z programming suite from EcuTek has a interest in actually tuning them.

Proper injector scale

Basically you wire the ebcs to a spare input on the ecu.

Then we have blank custom maps that can be setup.

Map 1 - (Desired Boost) Throttle vs Engine RPM
Map 2 - (Per Gear Boost) Gear vs Desired Boost
Map 3 - (Calculated Boost Error) Desired Boost vs Manifold Pressure
Map 4 - (Main Wastegate Duty Map) Desired Boost vs Engine RM
Map 5 - (Turbo Dynamics Prop) Boost Error vs Engine Speed
Map 6 - (Turbo Dynamics Intregal) Boost Error vs Engine Speed

Kinda like that

there we go a good list, Care to elaborate on some of the things like the oil temp gauge hijack, adjustable launch control, and the RaceRom controller(or is this a software program)

redline10000 · 10-22-2014, 09:02 PM

Got any examples of the the oil gauge hijack? Also are all of these in beta or are they avail now?

That's 22+ pages of parsed information... Would you mind putting together a list of the current functionality? This thread has had a long life and I am very curious as I am interested in this platform for my next z build...

Thanks,

Mike
