Question Good tune?

Hey guys
So I am probably going to buy and install the tomei header here pretty soon. I was wondering which tune i should get that would best compliment the sound and header. Im between EcuTek and OFT or OFT 2. But i just dont know. Can you guys suggest some.

do you plan to go forced induction in the future? then go with Ecutek..but if you will do minimal mods and stay n/a then OFT. not saying you can't use either as they both will do the same job. i currently have a tomei uel with oft e85 tune and i love it..hopefully some ecutek guys can shed some light on their experience with the Ecutek.

I think Unichip has the best sound tuning software for sure. Their Stage 2 rumble beats 93 tune can't be beat.

Don't be cheap and go Ecutek, they already have it all figured out.

Ecutek is a system to flash a car ecu, its no guarantee you get a good tune.

The tune depends on the tuner using the system

Look at the tuners reputation and results not the tool that they use.
