Anyone in GTA tune with OFT? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Otherwise, I have to buy an Ecutek license.

@wparsons do you know any one?

You could ask Sasha at OnPoint, but I don't know of anyone for sure.

Definitive Tuning up in Newmarket might be able to. They have Vishnu license to tune IIRC and Ecutek and a 4 wheel dyno for the Subie guys. He tunes the Honda factory race cars too the last time I saw. Cleaned up a tune on my STi at their old location.

They have the craziest fan I've ever seen.... Like I'm talking 6 feet diameter lol.

Please give update.

With OFT It may be cheaper to use the Vishnu remote custom tuning, with Vishnu as the tuner.

Data log, send to Vishnu, etc.
Would depend on how long for him to send amended tunes via e-mail.

This rings a bell now that you mentioned it. Data log and send to Vishnu with the current tune is an option.

Iirc, it's like 220 for up to 7 tuning amendments.

@wbradley....please give update. Interested.

I will give an update when I get it sorted out. I'd prefer to dyno tune the car if possible as it seems safer to have it dealt with hands on. Of course with a license, base tune, dyno time and custom tune its going to cost WAYY more than remote with Shiv. To me, ideally there is a local OFT tuner as that's going to cost at least $500 to $800 less than Ecutek.

I'm in the same boat as you. A tuner that can tune with the OFT would save me a pretty penny. I've contacted Touge Tuning and I've been told that they use EkuTek and will not use OFT.

wparsons · 05-24-2015, 11:02 PM

Touge Tuning has all their tuning done by Sasha at OnPoint Dyno. He definitely does EcuTek, doubtful he'll want to tune by RomRaider/OFT.

steve99 · 05-24-2015, 11:04 PM

unless you have a very unique setup with an intake that you have not done maf scaling on and maybe nameless or ace header the oft tunes work pretty well.

just an e tune should be able to sort out intake issues , unique header mabye require dyno time

but otherwise flash and go tunes are pretty good if they match your mods, i have even heard the reputable ecutek guys say that getting a dyno tune on one of their flash and go type tunes NA will yeild little extra.

it different for boosted guys but on NA theirs not much in getting a full dyno tune over an e tune.

You should dyno yours and compare it mine, that way we can see the gains

Basically the only difference is you're running the OFT 93 tune.
