NO SHIT!! I saw the price of that thing, I was thinking maybe $700-800, but almost $1k for a cable?!!? And a cheap tune... come on man, you're even admitting the publicity stunt you pulled is not true?! Good on ya for RT.

They also did have really good gains over uprev on the one car I saw. About +10whp over all but that was just ecutek vs uprev ignition timing. I would go with Visconti knowing how well they do in the GTR market but they need to remember...we don't drive gtr's. A $1000 tune is exceptable on a $100k car...not a $30k car. RT all day. Vince tunes with Ecutek and uprev day in and day out constantly. Following their facebook and instagram will prove that. But with him knowing both softwares inside and out and having constant use of them makes me really comfortable going to them. The plan was to go to them anyways but then Visconti showed up with a good offer, that was taken away so now its back to RT who I never should've left out on my project. Ive learned my lesson. Im pretty shop loyal now. They hook me up on price matching parts like no other. Also Vince has tuned Mr. Squeeze's car. just something to keep in mind

The ECUTek thread just said they didn't see any gains from VVEL with N/A. Which was one of their primary fluff points over UpRev is that they could change that. Maybe there's a reason UpRev doesn't do it, is that it doesn't give you gains...

VVEL isn't a huge concern for me as my build plans have changed and I don't want much more than 500whp. Every penny spent from here on our will be for making it reliable and a track beast that can handle the power.

Really we have a whole bunch of ideas...just limited by funding and time at this point. Also making sure there is an interest for our stuff is the other hard part.lol

I would imagine that a ~500hp FI build is going to feel a little loose/dangerous off the line as it is, plus the stock block won't really handle much more than that anyway.
