Nope - no longer do any work out of "The Shop"

EcuTek has been working on the ecu for a long time - they already have a lot of stuff done. They have control of cam timing etc.

Once everything is confirmed to be working OK - they will be working on RaceRom Speed Density and all sorts of stuff.

I've said basically everything I can right now.

today is HP day at Lachute Performance!
I have 8 hours of R&D scheduled on the dyno, over a 1000 parameters available and more than 150 parameters for logging!

EcuTeK has done their homework in getting us a definition of the ECU.

Sweet! Let the tuning begin!!!!

THANK YOU ECUTEK FOR ALL THE HARD WORK DEFINING THE STOCK ROM

If you don't mind could you update your thread with the effect tuning has on the torque dip area? Also do you have maps and definitions for the AVCS?

If so would you mind stating if changing the tables have any effect on the torque dip?

Thank you!

The stock Rom? Or 15 stock roms

I can't say what they do or do not have BUT if a company like EcuTek works on a ecu for more than 6 months its ok to assume they have the important stuff defined!!!

Holy snickies there are 15 variations of this ROM

I thought tuning the Evo was diffucult due to the different rom variations spanning 3 yrs for the Evo VIII.

Any idea as to why there are so many? Are the Rom's actually different from the toyota, scion, and subaru????

Glad to see EcuTek trying to make inroads in the US market. It got a bit ugly back then but I've always liked the innovation behind the product. The UK and Australia are still big markets for the software.
@john - very nice, tempered responses to some aggressive questioning. Keep it up!

So are details (Price and Terms) of acquiring ProTuner License private matters?

Or can you, or someone spill the beans publicly?
