You can use the defroster+throttle in that case

That would be something you would have to discuss with them, we are not affiliated.

delicious and moto-east are both reputable ecutek tuners.

both have good tunes for NA and FI cars.

ecutek is the tune system

It consists of
a cable/dongle to allow tunes to be flashed to ecu about $350, you wont need this if you can get to the tuners premises and they can flash it for you.

an ecutek ecu license this cost about $350 1 per ecu flashed required

a tune from any ecutek tuner for NA cars about $100-350.
This tune will be locked so you wont be able to edit it.

hks flash editior is basicly the same as an openflash tablet it just flashes tunes.

The advantage of the oft is it comes with free tunes for NA and FI cars and tunes are open an you or a tuner could edit them. and OFt sells very well second hand for good prices

I think the oft is cheaper as well.


Just look at the FI kit you want and go with the tune system suitable for it

OFT is good if you use their specific SBD turbo or vortech supercharger kits or you have an NA car


If you buy the hks kit then probably the hks system


If your buying other turbo or supercharger kits talk to a tuner about what they recomend as most will use ecutek system.

So really all is need is a license and I could go to an ECUTEK tuner and have them flash a tune?
