With that being given said isn't that in the upwards of $1000? Wouldn't it just makes more sense to get a custom tune being that it cost almost the same if not more? What's the benefit?

if you have to get a custom tune else where even, you will still need to buy the ecutek bundle...

That is the bundle...(~$600)

Although, I would think you could just buy a license, and the tuner could use their cable.

License = $345
NEW Cable & Dongle = $350

So yes, around a $1000 investment if you include a custom tune.

EDIT: OR what scraejtp said

Just to clarify I'm not arguing with you guys I'm just not really to knowledgeable when it comes to tuning. Other then not having a tuner in your area or whatever reasons you may have. How is the flash and go more beneficial then a custom tune.

Flash n Go is basically your custom, maximized tune. Instead of visiting a shop for repeated dyno pulls and paying for an hourly rate of development time, they send you a file based on their R&D and experience with various FI kits.

Like you mentioned, if you do not have a local shop avail to you the FnG will be an option to consider.

I would like to mention we have designed our Flash & Go Tune on over 1000 cars around the world, in person and remotely. The tune has gone through 2000 revisions and something continuously update. You are more than welcome to ask any one of our customer about the improvements over years, yes years.

It is highly refined tune that will get you dialed in quickly and allow you to start driving your car immediately. Of course if there any issues, we offer remote trouble shooting since we know exactly what to expect out of our tune. If it is out of spec we can tell you one of many things, such as:

- Incorrect MAP sensor installed
- Faulty MAP sensor
- Failing front O2 sensor
- Vacuum leak and where to look
- Boost Control setup incorrectly
- etc.....

With the knowledge we have, we are more then just a tune but a complete solution for your vehicle to make sure it is running smoothly and correctly.

Cheers,
William Knose

Bill, I may have asked this before but forgot the answer. Does your tune modify the stock cam timing at all?

I'm going to buy the Flash & Go tune when I develop my own turbo kit ;D
I've had nothing but amazing experience from Delicious Tuning for my Sprintex kit! Local dealers in Australia drove my car and said out of the 20 or so different supercharger it is by far the best they drove. They compared it to their AVO stage 3 turbo car and said it felt as good if not better than it (though it had about 30k spent on other things also).
Keep up the good work guys!!

VVT maps are completely changed for both NA and forced induction applications to maximize power, efficiency, and safety.

My car does not have cruise control, so how will I be able to set and adjust my launch control?

Is it possible to use my hand lever to engage the launch control once I have it pulled up?(e.x once the hand brake light is on)

Setting launch control is just the same as it would be on a cruise control equipped car, however, the rpm we program launch control to is going to be set in stone. We can always alter that if need be so that you can find your optimum launch.
