so might as well stick with ECUTEK and find a good tuner, one of the best is just a short drive down to florida once you decide to go boosted.
Ecutek has a flash counter in its software, as yet no one has found one in ECU itself

If you have found this counter please enlighten me as to its locatiion.

Carnt find it in Techstream, and it appears dealers cannot either as i have worked with guys with bricked ecu and dealers suspected tune but unable to prove.

He doesnt need a new ecu, any ecuteck tuner can flash it back to stock for him, or he can if he bought an ecutek cable. His ecutek licience is embedded in his ecu. Once back to stock he can then flash with any other flashing system.

Although i agree why blow an ecutek licience its worth $350 , and some ecutek tuners will do a flash and go tune for about $350 in usa or if he buys cable kit he can flash himself.
