Thread: questions about tuning?

  1. #1

    Default questions about tuning?

    hey guys im rather new in the evo world. i just picked it up not to long ago. the car came with a vishnu xede chip and i have been doing a lot of messing around here and i really dont want to keep this. the real question is can anybody else tune the chip other than vishnu or should i sell it and get a ecuflash from the other well know tuners here in the bay. i have heard great things about fftec and speedelement and would like to have my tuning done at one of these places. any input would be great.

    Junk that piece of shat Xede and go to either GST or Full Function. Speed Element no longer tunes =(

    You also want to have all your mods in place before tuning. Also look into running E85 if you want big power numbers.

    GST charges something like 400 for a map. FF, according to their website charges 180ish per hour of tuning on ecuflash. Make sure you do a boost leak test prior to getting tuned.

    Hey guys went to speed element today to pick up a Air filter and then headed out to fftec to check the place out . Sean and Ernesto were were very helpful and I'm going to get a couple more parts for my ride and she is ready for a tune and will be getting it done at fftec. Oh yeah the xede is going to be removed. Thanks guys for your help/input.
