It's not ideal, but it's the easiest way to ensure the end user doesn't hurt their vehicle inadvertantly or share IP/ trade secrets.

Uprev's maps are far cheaper than the competition's maps. Are you willing to pay 4-5 times the cost of the map for the ability to tweak it? For $50, I'd just email new data logs to uprev and have them update my map. You can do that multiple times before you have spent as much as some others charge for a single map.
I know that, and if the maps leaves from my car 500Hp I do you quite right.
But I know also that uprev via e-tune adjust AFR and a little bit Time Advance.
For a real tune it's necessary a dyno... ..and a good tuner, nothing else...
(think about that the nearest Uprev Pro Tuner near me is at 2000Km!)


I am able to adjust AFR, but require me a lot of time and it's not my work. I pay (payed for the "surprise") willingly 50$ to do that.
As change Oil: is quite simple, but tiring me. So I do it to my mechanician.
Now: Is right that my mechanic changes the oil bolt to an Anti Theft bolt to ensure that I will go only to he?
