STUCK ON OFT STAGE 2 !! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

pher.da.rico · 12-06-2019, 03:45 AM

I don’t know if this specific topic has been covered but I really need help. So I’ve been running my stage 2 e85 tune for a while now no problems but recently I broke my V2 0FT i’m trying to source a screen and try to repair it but if worse come to worse. Would I be ok switching to ECUTEK and writing over that tune it with the help of a pro tuner or do I HAVE to tune it with my OFT before switching over. I’m not worried about warranty I just wanna be able to optimize my tune with peace of mind. Thank you for your time !!

^ that is the screen you will need to replace your OFT V2 screen. It's a very simple process.

Nope, you can't flash an EcuTek tune over your OFT tune. EcuTek will give you a ECU mismatch error code. It happened to me when I forgot to unmarry my OFT.

Worst comes to worst, you can go to dealership and have them flash your car back to stock tune, but that will render your OFT useless. I do not recommend doing this. Only do it if it is your only option. Make sure you have 91 or 93 in the tank before going to dealership.

You can read or re-flash with a Tactrix OpenPort. It's probably cheaper than the Ecutek option.

As above cheapest way out of your problem will bw buy tactrix $170 usa and flash with that

Where would I go from there if need be ? Would I stick with the tactrix or then switch to ecutek? Excuse my ignorance

Neither oft or tactrix lock ecu like ecutek or BRZEdit.

So is no problem to flash with tactrix then reflash with oft or the other way round
