Thank you both.
I assume you need a laptop connected to log with Ecutec (unless using their new Bluetooth connector)? Hence the question, since Tactrix would be a more compact solution. Another question: If starting out from an unlocked tune file which already includes Racerom, is it then Is it necessary to purchase Racerom to edit said tune (including modifying the Racerom features)?

You get racerm patchs for roms with basic proecu kit you can add racerom patch to base roms but you xan only edit or see, mode 1 maps and base features likr c ffs auto blip and per gear rpm limits. You cannot access custom maps , mode 2 3 4 maps or any other racerom features which i suspect includes tge setup of fancy blutooth features |

ECU Connect is now available for Android too. You do indeed need RaceROM 9.1 patched ROMs.
On the standard dongle license (End User) you have access to: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced classified maps Add RaceROM patches to base ROMs Edit launch control, Flat Foot Shift and Aito-Blip on patched files The RaceROM upgrade gives you access to: Fuel and ignition timing maps for modes 2-4 Custom Maps

Thanks steve Do you get access to set up blutooth app features on base proecu kit ? Assume you need custom msps to set up pops and map change though ? Assume the logging via blutoith jyst works on eacerom 9.1? But other fance stuff you would need racerom full access ? If it now works on andriod thats great might even think about one :-) You recon they will flash with it ever ? , Looks like a micro usb on back end of. Blutooth dongle is that used for anything ? |

The App is designed for 9.1 (on the BRZ) only. I'd imagine you get just the OEM parameters if you use an earlier version, I'm sure that was confirmed on here before. I can't confirm what the End Users get access to with regards to the Custom Parameter Settings. I would assume it's RaceROM upgrade at a minimum as you use the parameters as inputs into custom maps etc.

Thanks a lot for all your answers.
My car is running really well as it is. Is it worthwhile switching to Ecutek? Are there any tools in in the Ecutek software that makes tuning easier compared to Romraider? Or is it the same footwork required? It seems like I could copy over my present tune to Ecutek with just purchasing a cable and a license. Would I have any benefit except for the gimmicks like proper FFS? And would it be better to hold off and see if the cable will be completely replaceable with the BT adapter?

If the updated BT device does come to production, I could see it replacing the cable, as it would inevitably provide laptop logging and flashing plus the app connectivity. Plus it comes in a nicer case....

nothing is impossible to hack crack...

That's how programs like 3D Studio Max and Lightwave 3D and Maya, etc.. have cracked versions out there. That being said, I don't condone cracking software nor do I know how easily it can be done for this software, but to say it's impossible is a misnomer. Jaden |

Im lucky to have a protune thats unlocked. Im interested in adding ignition timing and adjusting my duty cycle on my Boost controller after my motor build is complete and broken in. Does anyone have an English guide that translates each table in EcuTek for a dumb down English for learning purposes?

Open the table theirs often help option Theier is also some pdf documentation that comes with ecutek, but with the base proecu it its prety basic , tuner version you get more info Boost controller is likely controlled by custom maps set up by tuner, so depends how they set it up might be their own setup usually uses evap purge solenoid output of ecu from memory. Unfortunatly unleass you have racerom extension pack you cannot se or slter custom maps even in unlocked tune Nice to see james martin still doing unlocked tunes |

Simple rule of thumb, increase boost, reduce ignition advance..... don't go doing both
