Ive talked to a few people that have had a "Performance Tune" done to their CPU at our local Dyno..What they are claiming is for a Few Hundred Bucks they Flash your CPU and Tune it giving you significant gains in power. Havent gone to check it out but they offer unlimited Dyno Runs till they get it at peak performance..Is this B.S? or should I look into it

To my knowledge, non of the legitamate companies that normally do ECU reflashes have been able to do this to the A/C yet... Kyle, Blake, Josh, care to chime in?

tune it with what? you need to post more specifics. there has to be a method of tuning the factory ecu and there's nothing out that's plug and play so - chip, p.b., s.a., ? nothing is available yet so i would recommend saving your chips as of right now instead of being scammed out of money. just my take.

This method of flashing and programming your ECU requires you to have a program that works in reprogramming Nissan ECU's. To my knowledge, only a select few companies have this technology at hand. You have to remember, in the altima coupe, the EMU (ECU) is programmed in with your BCM and TCU. That means, if you try to reprogram one, you will have to make sure its precisly created to work with everything from your transmission to your push button start

TechnoSquare is one of the legit companies that has had sucess flash VQ VK and QR ECU's don't think they have a CVT flash ready yet though
