OFT and ecutek are devices/systems to flash a tune. Ecutek has some ectra features due to the ecutek guys writing extra program code (racerom)
however the OFT guys now have
overboost cut
Flex fuel
launch
FFS
and SD tuning available.
Their no reason you could not use OFT for tuning on the FI kits supported by OFT.
OFT main support is for the SBD turbo kit. so if thats the kit you want then no problem.
They also support some SC kits vortech and a couple of others.
Ask the oft guys if their is support for your proposed kit, if so then oft is no problem.
If it a different kit not supported then your likely better going ecutek due to the larger number of supported kits and larger avaiability of ecutek tuners.
As the oft guys are probably the only guys who will tune forced induction with oft.
If your using oft for NA then your other option is to flash back to stock to unmarry oft, then you can sell your oft and they sell very well for little loss. This is one of the big advantages of oft the resale value. so even if you switch out of oft you will loose little. Ecutek the only thing you can onsell is cable kit , the tunes and liciences are not transferable.
have a read here got a bit of info on pricing and features etc
