I'm guessing, like most tuning, they are pushing but at least it looks like Ecutek can set a boost target limit but of course don't know exactly how these work.
) but I still seem to have a couple of options. I think.You can buy the phone thingy anyway and do logging afaik. Local is usually a good thing if the customer service is good...OK, seems I have decided to go for Ecutek (and am selling my DTE/DTUK box
Option 1
Local tuner who does Ecutek remap for €1,250, including dyno session.
They don't offer Phoneflash.
Option 2
Buy the ODB thingy and get Litchfield to tune it remotely for about €1,000 all in.
Assume this isn't as bespoke/good as getting the dyno mapping, but it does give me something to fiddle with on my phone
Which to go for though?
yes mapping on dyno much better.OK, seems I have decided to go for Ecutek (and am selling my DTE/DTUK box

Following this with some interest. Depending on the day I want/not want to remap (although very tempting) but I’d have to I’d go remote with Litchfield, I think.
What was your initial thoughts on the new software with your first previous file. If you strip out the launch control etc do you think it is better? More power? Different delivery? Man flu……about as bad as it gets. Good luck
The initial file was remote flashed and I could tell it had considerably more shove than the DTUK V1 I was using before, but being an initial file it had a weird boost lag that was noticeable on the data logging occurring between WOT gear changes. Litchfield recognised this and said they had also found something similar on theirs and have since altered their base map along with making a couple of other tweaks for my bespoke map presumably to take into account my hardware (Legamax and Eventuri) but alas I can’t test out the changes for a few days. I have confidence though that it’ll deliver and definitely like the idea of a proper ECU tune over a piggyback.
Ok so you had the box before. I have the ecutek remap but it was done in January on the dyno. It does not have the selectable maps etc but I wonder how different it is from the new software
No worries. Hope you are on the mend. Warren-RS3 went from the Litchfield remap to the new version and reports it’s worth it. Improvements across the rpm range rather than being bias to the higher rpm range.
