Our kit, and most of the other kits, you can install and flash in your own garage. Ecutek and OFT don't differ in the ability to provide a flashing solution, they differ in the delivery of the rom to the ecu of your vehicle. With ecutek, it is your own laptop + ecutek cable. With OFT, it's the OFT tablet.
The main reason that provided basemaps for FI kits are in ecutek only right now is due to a number of factors. The fact EcuTek has been around for over a year on the platform, which means all of the turbo and s/c kit developers had to use it to develop their kits. It also is the most developed of the flash programs available, and does provide a feature set that isn't available on the other programs yet.
Nobody can design their turbo or s/c kits to run with OFT, it's the other way around - OFT needs to have the features to work with the FI kits. In the case of our company and our kit, for instance, we are just selling hardware. While we are an EcuTek master tuner, it's simply to support our hardware. If and when it becomes necessary - or viable - we'll become OFT/BRZedit/Opensource master tuners as well, for the same reason.
