Well, damn, you guys need to talk about it then. I haven't heard of anyone talking about having launch control on their Ecutek-flashed car. Why does no one mention it? Where are all these Ecutek-flashed cars with launch control? they aren't in the Drag forum talking about their launches, that's for sure. I want to see some results for my own personal edification.

Razorlab, what flashes are you referring to that have been written over an EcuTek-flashed ECU? It's all fine and dandy to refute a guess, but it would help if you give the answer, otherwise you're not being helpful, and this info would be helpful.

You can do that with Dynoflash free of charge, but I'm guessing you mean that you want to be able to drive down and get it done in person rather than wait for the ECU to go through the mail.

Also, there will be no reason to flash back to stock for your maintenance services, but it would be a good idea for any warranty claims - of course, that's along with removing any aftermarket parts as well.

Eman

Yeah I want drive down to stock flash , and you said there's no reason to flash back to stock for maintance , why ? dont they check via OBD ports for certain services ?

You're slipping Clayton. You know I wouldn't say it without proof.

Here are your results, a 4-wheel burnout and what looks like a 1.6X 60'.

what is launch control set to now , I was told by Dan(Harman Motive ) 5500 RPMs
is that what you got ?

That's nice. I wish I would have known, but better late than never. I don't understand why we don't see everyone with EcuTek flashes talking about their launch control. That baffles me that no one has talked about it after so long...

Eman, your stock launch limiter is set to 5k. Have Harman Motive bump it to 5500 for you.

Eman

is is too high to set it @ 6k Warrtalon ? or is 5500 enough ??

Warrtalon

I prefer 6k personally, but I think 5500 is a very good place to set it. Ask Harman if they wouldn't mind changing it for you if the first setting isn't where you want it.

Eman

Thanks mang !!!
Also you said this on a diff post : "A IX has also already hit 12.0 on pump gas with just a tbe ($600), mbc ($85), and mail-in Dynoflash ($299). That's around 1k for 12.0s on pump gas and around 330whp. No comparison again..."

where can I get a TBE for $600 , ralley good price !!!

The Megan TBE, but I don't have 100% confirmation that it fits perfectly on the IX. Some people have installed the Cat-back and sait it fits perfect. One guy just recently put the downpipe on his IX, too, and he said it fit, but that it was pretty close to the ACD (it's close on my 05, too, so that's no biggie). That only leaves the test pipe, which doesn't matter - it will fit as long as the DP/CBE fit.

Several vendors on here carry it. I always suggest my first sponsor.

I believe I did give an answer, which was, yes, a ECUtek can be overwritten by another flash.

but just in case...

WORKS techtom flash to ECUtek and back again.

Now again going from WORKS techtom flash to ECUtek again.

He's having a hard time finding a tuner that he likes.


2 others have also gone ecutek to techtom (non-works).

To be super granular, I do believe some of these where flashed back to stock first for safety, then flashed again.

Is that all fine and dandy, helpful, etc, or do I need to post phone numbers, dates and times as well?

Just to clarify

The Ecutek has launch control

From the best of my data (unless they have revised the ecutek recently) once a car is flashed by Ecutek - NO ONE can reflash the ecu except another Ecutek dealer

Eman make sure you report back with us with the results of your flash and TBE (please). Yeah I also planned on going with Harman Automotive when I get my IX, it's great that they will get some experience with IX before I go, LOL. How much were they charging for the Ecutek Flash, did you say $450? Or is it more expensive? Anyhow looks I will be going with Harman, unless there is another Dynoflash visit to Socal in late April/early May.

$650 should be the minimum advertised price for a first time ECUtek user license.
