Just to be clear, these two cars were not custom tuned. They were just programmed with Vishnu's Stage 1 map. Jeff's car, in particular, only had to verify HP, not to tweak it for max power. The other car saw more runs because Shiv applied the baseline mapping changes one at a time for documentation purposes. These very same maps will be available on their website on Monday.

The difference seems to be that I should be able to take the OFT system and tune to a tuner of my choice, whereas with ECUTEK I have to find a licensed dealer, and I might not even like that dealer. Along with the price difference this seems like a large benefit.

edit: I think I know now I actually read the first post properly. @Rombinhood@OpenFlash Can you find out what reference lambda kit Shiv is using? |

Datalogs from the stock lambda sensor are inaccurate. And values in the fuel table are meaningless since since they are calculated and before any additional fuel compensations are applied. I believe the Mustang Dyno at FFTEC uses an innovate wideband controller with standard Bosch wide range o2 sensor. |

@ft_sjo - i'm seeing the 14.2 AFR on RehabJeff's first dyno plot (two runs of the ecutek tuned firmware). It seems pretty clear on the chart. I had to take a double take since the scaling on the AFR is different when there was a richer run on the other charts.

2. Post tune file data on the forum, there are enough knowledgeable OPs here to help you interpret, this is the beauty of open source, no tuner can Mickey mouse you. 3. Absolutely yes, anyone can contribute to creating tune file without requirement of a tune license. All you need is the OpenFlash Tablet to DL the tune file from PC to flash into your ECU. All tune files will be available thru website for DL at no additional cost. And all cables are included at no additional cost as well!! 4. Yes Custom Dyno Tuning is the best way to go if you already have EcuTek, but cost a leg and arm. Vishnu Tuning has done most of the hard work for OpenFlash Tablet end-users with proven dynoed tune files at a economical cost. Quote:

Yes, and I had to learned the hard way losing $850 for a trash tune, I almost fork out another $750 for a local EcuTek master tuner to dyno tune, thank God Vishnu Tuning came to rescue me

I am glad there are more options but tuning isn't really dependent on the device doing the flashing. No vendor lock in is a big win, I agree. |

I had a feeling that when someone took the time to do a comparison this would come to light. Reminds me of another forum....

not to mention that once you pay that tuner, like him or not, he's your man. you can't even take it to another ecutek 'master' tuner... it's locked to that one individual vendor. great for business.... bad for us. this should be the automobile to the ecutek's horse and buggy, for sure. there's just no good reason to pay nearly double the price to be locked in to a tune you're not allowed to even look at or verify (or have someone else verify) that anything useful was done to it. it couldn't have come soon enough... i just feel bad for all those shops that coughed up $10k for nothing lol.
