I'll say Ive been on my DT Ace 350 setup for 2 years now with no problems at all. And the turn around time was great on the tunes.
- Have you looked into the Racer-X intake manifold, looks like it has potential but needs a good tune? - I see you listed the Full Blown Motorsports intake manifold. Is that for FI only or is there NA gains with it. Im looking to get as much NA power as possible and still remain streetable.

Thinking just ported heads and cams or something a bit more involved? Maybe valvetrain and oil pump for the extra bit of revs

^^ I echo his sentiments. DT has been great to me, and would love to see you guys bring some more NA power to the table!

Yeah for non sustained high RPM use they seemed to help - they also do respond to further tuning once installed, you can recover some of the power loss at the very top with increased timing (apparently lower VE/cyl pressures in that range vs without them). Even for track use though I'd think they'd benefit in the 5000-6500 range - anyways just curious. Thanks for the reply |

I have a bone stock 2018 BRZ. If I want to do an Ace A350 on an otherwise stock car what do I need to buy? Do I need to get the ProECU programming kit? Do I need to get the ECU connect programming kit? Does it matter? What about needing a license. The ECUtek website is not super clear on this.

ECUTEK released the Bluetooth connect, which allowed for live monitoring and modifications. I believe the ECUTEK cable and dongle can still be purchased, but it has also been replaced by the ECU connect and will likely phase out the old system or it will only be used by professional tuners. The ECU connect is like the Bluetooth connect unit, except it has a usb attachable cable for being able to reflash the ECU for tunes, as well as, coming with the needed key dongle. The good news is that you don’t need to purchase both, but for those of us that already have the old dongle, we would beed to buy the Bluetooth connect unit if we want to utilize it and the app. Lucky you.

Exactly. Literally every FI person I know that actually tracks these cars hard has had issues, whether it be heat management related or engine randomly externally venting itself related.
