Please forgive my ignorance, I'm new to tuning and don't know much about it.

I'm getting a turbo kit soon, and I've been researching for a long time now. It seems Ecutek is the most used platform for tuning FI on our cars, but many say it's because it's the only one available right now.

Is the Open Flash product another alternative to Ecutek? Honestly, Ecutek scares me. My tuner hasn't used it yet, and also hasn't tuned an 86, much less a turboed one.

Will established 86 tuners like FB or FA86club be able to use your product remotely to tune my car if i GO that route?
Yes on all accounts. Working on datalogging now. That will make remote tuning no different than doing so with ecutek. The major difference being that you aren't locked into one tuner and you can see/modify the maps yourself. And you'll also have a digital screen that will display data realtime. No need for laptop.
