Using Ecutek to flash OFT maps
 
Hi everyone, I have an Ecutek and wish to use the Ecutek to flash OFT maps. My car currently has an Ecutek tune. Based on my searches on this forum I still have several questions.

Is this even possible? I've heard conflicting answers ranging from no you can't, to yes but the oft maps differ or are missing some data.

If I am able to flash OFT maps using Ecutek will my Ecutek licence still remain intact once I flash the OFT maps?

Thanks in advance any help is appreciated.

Yes, you can so long as it doesn't have the OFT Launch control patch and isn't Cal ID "hacked" to work on OFT.

EcuTek license will stay on the ECU if you do this.

As Kodename47 said the lc/ffs patch stops you being avle to add racerom patch which you need to flash a non stock tune so if your manual your out of luck.


Then if your auto unless your car is A01I or K01I you going to run into problems with calid hacks in oft roms and ecutek not wantong to let you flash what is considers non compliant roms.


Now you can get arround those issues by several means but unless you have ecutek tuner version you need to manually copy and paste all the changed tables into into a non lc\ffs patched or non calid hacked rom which will take a considerable period of time.


Short answer is yes but for most people its not worth the trouble.
