Who's got the best ECU tune? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

RYU · 10-12-2012, 05:23 PM

There's a bunch of threads on this topic and i'm having trouble sorting thru it all.

We can discuss the pros/cons of each vendor's offering please?

I read the most about Visconti? But what about Perrin? Cobb? MRT? Any others?

A little about my goals. I'm hoping to keep my BRZ 6AT NA. I just want to clean up the tune and add ~20hp on crappy CA 91 gas. This can be done thru a combination of I/H/E and ECU. I'll wait until the warranty expires before exploring FI options.

Cobb has no plans to offer a BRZ solution.

Visconti and FA20Club.com have them available now, Perrin hasn't released any pricing that i'm aware of and xjohnx is correct i don't believe Cobb is supporting this platform. John probably has the most experience with the car although Perrin does a lot of R&D before releasing anything. FA20Club has a nice loyalty program on their tunes after you buy the first one anything you get later has a significant discount.

They all have their own merits i would suggest talking to each one individually with what concerns you have and see who comes up with the best answers for you.

I plan to go with FA20club because it seems more optimized. I like how visconti does the general all car tunes but when you break it down to my car the FA20 Stg 2 seems like it will give me the best gains

You are aware that Visconti will tweak his map for your specific setup if you send him datalogs, correct?

I have sent him multiple data logs for a couple of his tunes. Never heard back.

Good idea, that would be one important step I am missing.
