We're abit unlucky since our country didn't enforce the OBD2 compliance.

Can you check if its ok ? I dont want to spend hundreds of dollar and found out that i could'nt even connect it. Another question would be can ECUTEK enable Mode 0 on the ECU, basically allowing me to use any kind of OBD2 product to datalog.
You stumped me on that one, but I will ask the lead engineer in the morning, and let you know the answer

Ok spoke to Mervyn at Ecutek this morning, and he says it's not an issue for the Asian market cars. We will be able to read and write the rom image.

Sounds like a plan to me!

The race rom traction control we use on the BRZ is really nice for track work. Much like the Porsche sport version in the GT3, there, but not intrusive. I'm hoping the Z will react the same way

Just let me know and I'll see what I can do to get the software and log some runs. I'm going to start timing my runs (assuming minimal traffic, never going over the speed limit ....) I'll also have a GoPro to shoot video with. Should be a good proving ground to show what it's capable of vs stock TC. I'm also planning a track day sometime this fall with some Vettes and Porsches.

Looking forward to giving it a shot.

Yes, on several levels. First I wouldn't be running it that hard until the tune is 100%, but I'm sure they err on the side of safety. Second, either stop racing people on the street or stop posting about it. Word it differently to avoid abuse here. Lastly, keep a closer eye on your gauges. You should have backed off it and let it cool down between runs. There's no reason to run it into limp mode. I hope you're running a good synthetic, and I'd change the oil immediately if it were my car. And people wonder why I won't buy a used sports car.

Just placed my order. Finally pulled the trigger on this. Can't wait to get my Z professionally tuned.

Believe my car is running rich at the moment. Can't wait the AFR worked out and working the way it should.

Let me know once shipped.

Thanks.

I'd love to know where they stand as far as boost control and all of the other features that were promised. Been a whole lot of silence on the Ecutek front lately.
