Road Race Engineering - ECUTek

Hello all!

I spoke with Road Race Engineering and they will have the ECUTek Flash software so all the socal evo x's make your appointment! (they should have the software next week?) or whenever it gets released!?!?!?

My car will be the first one to tune with this software, so I will make sure to post my results as soon as the software arrives.

I think the estimated cost right now is around $700.00 (including the license) if I am not mistaken.

Hope this post helps out those socal evo x's who need those tunes (like myself)

Any questions, feel free to pm me, or email Mike@roadraceengineering.com


-Chris

I'm sure Scott Gray will be by appointment only.

Other then that, Mike W is going to be doing the majority of the tuning.

Only if the dealer can prove that the flash/tune is what caused the break down...

but this will spark a debate as well because a dealer can void your warrenty for anything really, IF they wanted to be dicks... ... let's keep this on topic though..

Exactly what the previous poster stated, why complain, most people pay a lot more for a tune later down the road when they are putting down some serious power. I am perfectly happy paying $700 for a great tune that will make the car run unbelievably well.

No updates yet....

They had my car on the dyno yesterday tuning it... so we will see... I didn't get a chance to make it to the shop, (as I was moving) and had to finalize some stuff.

I am going to try my best to make it today, check on things.
