How good does the car run and what is the afr? seems really similar to the daughter board that emance sell's, looks like it can fall out of place like emance.tvmendoza wrote:I have an EFI tune and i have no complain, the price is really good, and the customer service is great too.
Your thinking of Emance....EFI specialist / redline is a differnt tuner.480sx wrote:
I guess you missed the 3 page thread in the ECU tuning section completely bashing Jason, with 2-3 people who blew their motors with his tune.
Doesnt it require you to tune it yourself? this is the part were a lot of people dont want to mess with. i'm learning so i dont mind, but i dont have time and money to learn and blow things up. which i already blew up one motor from emance tune. this is why i went w/ enthalpy.1mansho wrote:why would you pay 600 bucks for a rom tune, when you can buy a real time ecu for 60 bucks less? go calum or nistune if you want full capabilities of tuning your car.
Well good thing i already have an afcneo installed. bought innovate lc-1/xd-16 kit, thinking about what kind of knock detector i should buy but i think that should be fine. fine tuning shouldnt be hard. plus it's JWT tunes that usually run rich. enthalpy are pretty good base on other peoples experience.1mansho wrote:Its really not that difficult because what you can do is get a base tune from a member with similar mods as you and fiddle with it until your car runs better (watching afr, timing/knock). There are detailed instructions on Nistunes website on how to start tuning yourself, its pretty straight forward. I haven't even heard of people blowing up their motors with a real time ecu's... and not to mention your car will run rich with those rom tunes and would cost you even more with a safc to fine tune.
im trying to learn now, but like the other guy said i dont want my car to run like **** and me break something. i dont have the money to be blowing a engine. and to efi guy someone told me they suck.1mansho wrote:Its really not that difficult because what you can do is get a base tune from a member with similar mods as you and fiddle with it until your car runs better (watching afr, timing/knock).

Did this someone actually have an EFI tune? How did the tuner handle it?brizanden wrote: and to efi guy someone told me they suck.
no no he had one. He is a guy from a local forum, isnt a buddy just a dude that responded to a thread i made. Idk it just seems like someone always has a problem with any company. i just want to pay all that money and be the one guy outta 100 that gets a bad tune and breaks something. With my luck it would happen.ghx407 wrote:
