UpRev to EcuTek - Here we go...

ZKraken22

So you send your ecu to John for custom tune and while this happens your car is down?

No sir. My uprev tune is still on the car. I just dumped it for him so he could start looking at things. I will eventually flash the uprev tune back to stock, unmarry the license to the uprev cable and then flash a tune i receive from John. Which i assume will be more or less a base tune based on my setup. From there we start to tweak the ecutek tune.

By the way if you meant that i am actually physically sending my ECU part... that is not necessary. I just dump the data from it and send it to him so we can begin the process.

So for the eTune process, how does it work exactly? You do data logging (from driving?), email it to him, he tweaks the tune, emails it back to you, you flash it onto the ECU and then repeat until it's good?

Hope OP doesn't mind me answering your question. Yes, what you described is correct, with the exception of the e-mailing part. The ROM dump, data logs, and updated maps are sent back and forth using Tuner Assist, which is part of the software, instead of by e-mail.

Thanks for the answer! So for somebody like me (in Iowa, with not many tuners nearby), I could get fully tuned just by driving around and sending in my data logs? That's incredible!

Yep! That's how I did it, but its more than just driving around. Essentially, you do WOT pulls up to redline in several gears for each map.

I think he means, the ECU is unsupported when he did a ROM dump to send it to John so he can load it and start tuning.
