ecu flash?
 

Ok so I have seen a couple threads where people mentioned they did a ecu flash after boosting or whatnot. My question is with my car which only has an exhaust, crank pulley, and intake does it benefit me at all? If so what should I be looking for. Sorry if this is a lame question, this ecu flash thing is new to me.

Thanks guys!

It will absolutely benefit you. You will notice more power with a tune alone than your exhaust and intake. It will idle better, better low end torque, stronger midrange in the torque dip area, and pulls harder up top. A tune should be everyone's first mod on this car IMO. You will need to research more about Ecutek. Its the most common used so far. There are a few guys on here who can send you the tunes. Check out my build thread for dynos of before and after. Its kind of expensive out the door, but some tuners offer free updates if you add other bolt on items.

What is a fair ballpark price I should be looking for?

900ish if you want your own cable. 600 if you find one to borrow

300 cable
300 license
300 tune

Roughly, depends on who you but it from

Wow, I didn't realize it was that costly. You guys honestly feel that it makes that big of a difference? I am looking for a before and after either dyne or youtube videos. Just a lot of money is all but if its a great upgrade I'm all in.

Have you added the totals from your Intake, Exhaust and Crank Pulley up?

Good point :)

hp/$ it's probably the best deal running on the na side of things. that said, you'd still be better off saving up your money for fi of some sort if you want real power out of it.

399.00 will get you a custom written EcuTek calibration, with all the bells and whistles.

Yes, I went back to stock once, and it was kind of night and day...

Another good point is that the EcuTek can be used with a FI setup as well....


Right right?

Anyone here in or around the Madison WI area that would be willing to help me out with this?

Well if your ever in your neighbor state, I would be glad to help.

But I still need to find the Cable and License right??
