I know a major drawback on Ecutek is the "locked tunes", but you just need to get with the proper tuner. My tuner, HRI Tuning (James Martin, @jamesm banned from the forum) does NOT lock his tunes, he tunes your car and gives you your open tune so you do whatever you want with it.

EcuTek may be easier for tuning FI. It has all those custom tables and fun stuff. Still, if I were going for a seriously high-HP build, I'd go for a standalone ECU anyway. Being in the Bay Area, we have Shiv and Works nearby plus many others.

If I was going serious FI id go ecutek as its simply easier and everything is done for you and if your spending 10k plus on an FI build then another 1k or so for ecutek software is pretty small price for full support and plug and play flex fuel map switching support ect |

If you're rocking 550whp, are you also rocking aero and slicks? In that case, isn't the stock ABS ruining you on the track?
For a typical turbo build, OFT is just peachy. For a serious track build, Hydra EMS or AEM are probably the way to go. For everything in between, there's EcuTek.
