Yes, that is one often-overlooked benefit of oft. The same issue applies to brzedit, which I now own and have no use for, but can't sell. You can sell your ecutek cable if you choose to, though. With oft you can recoup the majority of your investment if need be.

Ecutek makes up for this by supporting a full upgrade path, such as to say that you'll never need anything else because you can run any combination of anything with it. Oft has resale value, which is good because you might need it when you decide to install a turbo or want flex fuel .
