Everything on EcuTek is just so damn easy to use and is almost fool proof.

Looking back now I should've just gone EcuTek from the get-go.

Good luck getting Shiv to respond to emails/calls/forum posts if you have a problem. I see more threads/posts than I can count by people who can't seem to get issues resolved, problems fixed, or questions answered.

The guy is just too busy. He's trying to support too many platforms at once and simply doesn't have the time IMO to properly take care of any one platform.

Romraider was great when I had my WRX (I actually did all my own tuning using that), but is still not as foolproof as EcuTek.

Again this is all my opinion based on using each of the three tuning methods mentioned.

Tactrix OFT Ecutek got all three, they all have good and bad points.


Pick the one that suits your wants/needs and budget. Everyone's different.




you don't need to rubbish any of them, just be thankful you have choice and competition.


And be thankful that you could sell your OFT for very little loss, unlike ecutek where your tune and licence is locked and its not on sellable.


The introduction of oft and tactrix for these cars cut the price of a NA tune in Australia from $1800 (im not joking) to $275.
