Uprev problems?

Nitrouz · 01-29-2011, 11:04 PM

My osiris tuner tried to dyno tune my car today... For some reason he can't reflash my ecu... Anyone know why? He has tuned other 370z's before but my ecu just wasn't accepting the changes... No matter what he does or what changes he makes, it's just not doing anything different.

The previous 370Z's, were any of them 2010's? I know Cobb did not have any support for 2010's before they pulled the plug.

yeah he's tuned other 2010's before. And this morning he just downloaded all the most updated software to ensure it's compatible......

Could be a bad data cable or you had an accessory on when he was trying to flash.

Nitrouz · 01-30-2011, 08:42 AM

cable was good he just tuned a 350z 30 minutes before me. All accessories were off...

looks as your going to have to wait till Uprev opens tomorrow.

Not being a hater, but why do owners get the uprev tune anyways? From some of the results on here, it's not even worth the price tag of $500+.

For the simple reason that most are trying to get the most out a na motor?
With all the bolt ons a tune makes a difference, and besides you get 5 maps and the torue gets bumped up a little for a seat of the pants feel and a definite Dyno power gain. $550 ain't cheap but but neither is sc?

Op I hope they get it resolved and you get to see why people pay the money

it changes the feel and response of the car, it optimizes your mods, the maps, it fixes the throttle lag, ...basically, have you ever had those days where you car really feels good and pulls nice all over....well a tune gives that everyday....a tune can make a world of difference

True that. Well worth IMO. Especially getting the A/F back to the correct ratio after mods.

Because I was bored on a Saturday afternoon. Also I'm not paying $500 or even close to that.

It's the same reason people buy intakes. Hell you'll be lucky if they add 3-4hp for short rams, but yet people pay $300-$500 of them. Why?

And exhausts...you'll be lucky if you get 5-10hp from them, but yet people are paying $1k - $2500 for them. Why?

So for the 10-15whp we gain from an uprev tune, I think even the retail price of $500 is quite worth it.

And the bottom line is, because $500 can be a lot of money or chump change for different folks. It's what's worth it to THEM that matters.

How much? PM me where you got it done too! Might be worth a road trip....

It's all about the sound for me!

Sound rules again. Performance is noticeable, but the sound is what sold me.

And for the peace of mind knowing that you are not damaging your engine by having changed the entire breathing apparatus of your car!

The question is...what's 9HP and 5 lb/ft worth?

I agree that a tune can make a car feel so much more powerful. I had my 08 Civic Si tuned with Hondata Flashpro and I felt a good amount of power midrange as it lowers vtec engagement to 4k rpm and raises redline to 8.6k rpm. The Flashpro also enables launch control limiter. It also fixed the rev hang issue in the Si.

Can someone explain exactly what the uprev tune modifies for the 370z?
