So let me get this right, all you need is an cable that runs from your obdII diag port to a laptop, software that's free -online and available with an open source code and you can adjust maf/timing/fuel figures, datalog, and directly save any settings to your ecu and if necc Revert back to factory settings w/o any traceable signs (incase we go to mitsu for warranty work?) Also will the actuator testing software be incorporated in the original program or will it be separate?
If so, when is this program coming out? And as Mitch stated, I am also local, (Chandler) and would be very glad to help out in any way possbile in testing and what not. Kudos for the amazing development and keeping it free!

We are still working on a nice editor that uses a user-GUI interface to edit your maps. But for now you can adjust fuel, timing, maf, etc using a hex editor, and flash your car. Also the way our software works, the EVO 8 has 256K of Flash memory, divided into 12 blocks. Most of all the calibration data are in block 2 and 3. So if you change something in flash block 3, and when you are ready to flash. Our software will detect what is changed, which woud be flash block 3 with the 12 blocks. Our software will only erase flash block 3, and flash your new settings in flash block 3 only without touching the other 11 Flash blocks. So flashing will only take about 5 seconds to erase and re-write Flash block 3. So you will be in and out in a snap of a finger.

I am surprised housedj hasn't chimed in. He has been using this software for a while now and has put down impressive #'s with the high octane fuel. I think both of his cars are flashed with this software as well as a few others.

Evolution VIII has been beta tested to ****. My 2004 RS went 12.31@110.9 when I had it. It only had turbo back exhaust, a drop in filter, and a manual boost controller. It was only a 9.8 hot side. The biggest part of achieving this time was the use of good fuel and tuning with the use of our software.
We used this same software to re-scale the mass air flow of a supercharged third generation Eclipse to read just like your Evolution MAF reads your boost. The car idled flawlessly using only the stock ECU.
I will let your guys know how my IX runs when I finally tune it.

the ECUFlash works VERY WELL! i gained 43whp & 59tq over my Dynoflash!!! both my cars were prototypes for race gas & pump gas testing & they work flawlessly. no hiccups, issues or problems whatsoever. my '03 STILL currently holds the unofficial AZ record for most TORQUE with stock turbo/no cams (368ftlbs)
needs a little warning tho:definitely not for beginners whose looking to make quick power and be hasty.
