OFT vs ECUFlash

[Shiv@Openflash]

OFT does a full write. Tactrix (and at times Ecutek) do partial writes. Does a full write eliminates the possibility of writing an incomplete or corrupt file to the ECU. Ecutek operates in its own "close" environment so it minimizes this risk. Tactrix assumes the end user is knowing what he is doing and isn't held responsible when he doesn't. We have to be a bit more cautious than both since the OFT operates in an open environment with "hybrid" maps and pseudo CAL IDs.

You can only look at what was logged after the fact which can't be dangerous if you run lean or start knocking. OFT is very slow at flashing but so is ECUTEK. OP2 tactrix is very fast about a min per flash.

bend the pins on the adapter both rows inwards about half a millimtere no more issues.

Necropost but this this is the only real thing duckduckgo for ecutek in KVM. I passed the USB controler in and windows picks up the key but I dont have the balls to hook it up to my car
