Yeah should be good. Not sure whether to get this, save up for turbo, or do both. Dammit, where was this crap 6 months ago before I was torn between NA and turbo?

Pretty competitive with the piggyback at least, and the fact it can be custom made for each car is quite nice.

This may sound kinda stupid, so sorry ahead of time, but if I go turbo, then get this flash I wouldn't need engine management right? Like the AEM EMS? From what I read I'm guessing that would be true? Or would I still need an ems? Oh yeah, great find amby!

So they take your stock ECU and reflash it, right? How do they tune to your car?

take a look at the 'list' that they have you fill out. Takes into account every mod that could possibly be done.

So we actually have to send our ecu to them? Sort of hard to do when it's the only car you have to get around in.

hmm seems they will do a flash that will keep us at 87 octane, with gas prices being what they are thats a big plus!

Yes but I would imagine you would be sacraficing a lot of power for such a conservative tune. You could do a lot more with 89 octane.

They could even do a map for my high compression pistons. It seems a lot more in-depth than some of the other re-flash/piggyback options we have.
