Hey all, i was thinking about getting Nistune in the next month or so, and i was wondering if some of you who use it could tell me some positives and negatives on it, would you recommend it to someone else, and how easy it is to tune with this program.

Thanks in advance,

Zach

I thinnk that it is great. I'm making pretty good horespower, it's fairly easy to tune, good support for it. The only things that I don't like it that their is no option to use a map sensor right now and there is no launch control.

Can you post further about your setup?

How did you get 330whp? And how did you do 12.x with a T25? Id guess those are 2 different stages of your engine, right?

Just curious.

Everything you need to know is on their website dude. It tells you which board you need for your ecu and anything else.

i have it and think its a great product. CA18DET uses Type 1 Rev 3 board, has a straight USB hookup and has nissan consult.

I have an Lm-1 wideband and with both the ecu and wideband hooked to my laptop i can do street runs or dyno runs and log many parameters such as rpm, speed, maf, etc alongside wideband AFR.

I think it is a great choice for a plug and play management that allows modifying fuel maps, timing, and rev/speed limiter.

I bought an ECU in AU and had them install the board. Was about $550 shipped to me.

Good luck, I will probably post screen shots of the software when I get some more time.

Do you have your LM-1 O2 sensor permanently installed or do you take it out after tuning? If its permanently installed, do you know how long it will last until it burns out?
