Thanks everyone!
Unless your going turbo, I doesn't make much difference, the main difference will be the skill and experience of the tuner on the BRZ/86 platform.

If you going turbo the balance sways toward ecutek as they can do a few extra functions.

however some tuners have developed alternate means of failsafe boost cut. without using unused sensor inputs like ecutek does.


You might also consider an openflashtablet for USD $500 you get the flashing device and access to various tunes for free for stock and bolt-on modded cars eg headers exhausts ect . It very good value for guys not going boosted (although they do offer turbo/supercharger kits suited to their tunes)

Their Stage 2 UEL header tune 91/93 petrol would be a perfect fit for your mods

They also have a Stage 2 UEL tune for E85 if you have access to that fuel as well

both included in price
