Until uprev gives you total control over timing, ecutek will be better.

Got ya, That's what I thought. But when I spoke with Z1 the person I talked with seemed like UpRev was better... Was kinda pushing me towards UpRev..

This will all be dependant on the tuners preference......some are more comfortable with UpRev than EcuTek....I've heard about UpRev making an update since last year...if they are coming out with these features than it would be awesome for those with UpRev...But Chuck33079 is right...having control of the timing is the deal breaker between the two.

This is complete B.S. and just proves ECUtek is the way to go. Seriously, $100 extra for this feature. So going with this school of thought, by the time you buy a tuner cable/license ($775) and then pay $100 for each "premium" feature (2-step, flat foot shifting etc.), you'll be over $1200-$1300.
So much for sticking with uprev.

Well, it does say this:
------------------------------- "If you purchased Osiris Standard or Tuner, from our web-store(or second hand), we can add the 2-Step Feature, to your current tune. You will need to email sales@uprev.com with your Order# in the subject field. This is currently only available for the 370Z and the G37 manual transmission models. Include your ECU part number (23710-?????) and/or copy of your ROM file in the email to sales@uprev.com " ------------------------------ |

Even if it's $100 for all the features I feel like they're just trying to squeeze for everything we got. IMHO this should just be part of the Uprev tuning not something extra.

i was thrilled for a bit thinking that they may have finally found a way to properly control the ignition timing.. My car has zero knock (NA) and cannot advance the timing enough, I think uprev is not that great for NA dudes out there.. havent tried ecutek but people seem to praise about its ability to control timing so I assume they have proper ignition timing control
its just that ecutek do not sell user tuneable kit for individuals, and i prefer tuning my cars on my own. |

Well that's interesting.
Even ECUtek's website says theirs is for SynchoRev only. If this really is the case that it works for any M6 then that pushes me back in uprev's court. Sounds like something I'd love to try out. |
