i recommend oft to 90% of the people that ask me, and a lot of people ask me. i do however think that some of the limitations to the system are downplayed for the other 10%, that is all. i think trivial and meaningless are in the eyes of the beholder. a guy planning on boosting his car should know that he can't have a boost cut with oft for example, and it's not often mentioned on here (except by me apparently lol). i say this from experience because i myself wasted money on software that nobody told me couldn't do it.
and yes the oft ots maps are, from what i've seen, the best you can get without doing it yourself (if they have one for you). |
I think I wrote that addressed to you, but more for everyone else's benefit lol.
Anyway, I for one am glad to have you looking at all angles. It helps both sides continue to improve which is what I want to see. It's easy to argue that the vast majority don't need this or that, but some people want it regardless. Maybe it's comfort level or familiarity or preference, but it doesn't really matter why someone prefers SD or flex fuel. All that matters is that is what they prefer and are willing to pay for it.
