I have created some tunes for over boost protections. In those maps, it would entail lowering the wastegate duty but I am looking at other solutions.

Currently a wastegate cut works BUT if the vacuum lines break or fall of it will still overboost. So closing trying to determine the next best option with what is available to me right now with EcuTeK RaceROM.

I'm just curious but many forum members have insisted that it is absolutely necessary for me to continuously data log my stage 2 Ecutek dyno tune to verify that it is "safe". The tune has already been logged, reviewed, revised and reviewed again by two pro tuners and I haven't encountered a single issue after several months of daily driving.


Do you agree that constant end-user data logging of completed custom tunes is necessary to ensure a safe tune? TIA.

There should be no need to constantly data log after the tune is in a good reliable daily driver state. The tune isn't going to change, it is the parts on the car and the fuel used that will cause more problems than the tune.

No one said constant end-user logging. Not even often. Just log the thing once in a while, say after you install a part and then again a week or two later to check the trims. And once every few months as the seasons change, IF you live in an area where the gas content is changed to suit the season.

Thanks. That's exactly what I thought but some members here keep insisting otherwise.

WTF is it so important to you that I buy a cable and data log a tune that has already been logged, revised, logged, reviewed and approved by 2 pro tuners and hasn't exhibited a single issue ever? WTF do you think the logs will show when the car runs flawlessly? The only change after the tune was an over-pipe. How drastic do you think that change was? Gas stays the same here all year, 93 octane e10. How many more experienced and knowledgeable people have to keep telling you that you're wrong before you STFU?


Tell you what, you buy me the cable that I don't need and I'll log the tune and post the results.

I really appreciate your generous offer but I wouldn't feel right since it's not your tune. The reason I haven't done any additional logging myself is that it was a remote dyno tune and I didn't buy a cable. Since the tune runs better than stock and has zero issues, I haven't seen any good reason to mess with it.


I apologize for the two idiots who followed me here but they apparently have hurt feelings because I didn't agree with them previously. This forum has a lot of experts who know everything and hate being disagreed with. I probably should ignore them more but it's hard when they seem to follow me around.

Please don't threadjack this thread like you did the other one. I'm out of here.
No feelings hurt, just amazed at the complete inability for you to actually comprehend what others have said. You do what you want to do with your car, all anyone has tried to explain to you is the need to verify what someone is selling you instead of just taking their word for it. I'm sorry you can't understand that.
Oh, and there was no thread jacking involved here. I had a legitimate question and a complement to to an ECUtek tuner for something that is actually good about ECUtek. Unfortunately your blind hatred toward OFT and OFT users keeps you from seeing that.

Delicious Tuning, that is amazingly nice of you. Customer support is where this business is made or broken. I sincerely hope that fast freddy takes you up on your offer. Its not often that you can get a professional tune review for free.

Preferring Ecutek to OFT equates to "Blind hatred"? "Comprehend" means agree with you?

Okay, whatever gets you to STFU, stop following me around the forum and jacking threads.


BTW, if it's not too obtuse of me to correct you yet again, most if not all, Ecutek tunes include free professional tune reviews and revisions. The number of reviews and revisions varies by tuner. One of the reasons I previously mentioned for preferring Ecutek to OFT that you immediately ignored. What do they call that kind of behavior? Hmmmm....
