1. on the fly map switching, im pretty sure i wasnt able to do this on uprev but its very useful for me when im on the street and someone tries to test me, I can switch to map 4 and call it a day all while driving.
2. Flex fuel- Lets u run any mixture of pump gas or ethanol, or e85 whatevers convenient for u.
3. Built in TRC with a temp highjack
4. Launch control- super easy to engage, easy as turning vdc off, put into gear, and hit the gas and clutch at the same time.
5. no lift shifting- you can shift while never letting go of ur gas.
6. No need for a boost controller

and i cant think of anything else at the moment.

oh damn i thought of a disadvantage: You cant self tune with ecutek but with uprev you can. But im no tuner so its not really a disadvantage.
Some of this is over my head.

Any chance you can dumb it down?

Default can Sebastian chime in

When you create a new .bin file does it cover all 4 map modes or they're built one at a time in one .bin?
Just curious to know which mode should I be driving on. i just got my first .bin file. Currently I'm driving on mode 1 (1000rpm) cause I'm assuming that's where we're starting. Also does launch control eventually get written in but in a different map mode? what map mode does Launch control usually get written in. Im just getting more curious as to how these maps are built. Appreciate you getting back to me.

Just missed it... black friday had some discount for the "Stage 2" tune, but not for the eTune @ $600.

Does anyone know if the adjustable traction control can be adjusted to different levels in different gears? Off or nearly off in 1st grear for getting off the line, or more commonly, just pulling out into traffic on any uneven surface, and with nice "safe" intervention in higher gears so I can just leave VDC on all day instead of having to remember to turn it back on after I pull out of somewhere.

I believe the traction control intervention setting, which hijacks the oil temperature gauge, applies to all gears; however, I think you are able to change it on the fly. I know this is cumbersome, but it appears to be the only way to have different intervention thresholds for different gears.
