I am disappointed at the votes. I would have thought FMU would be winning by a landslide.

i cant say whats best, but i have been over 500 on ectune and in a week or so, i have someone wanting over 500 on crome. im not excited about trying it on crome, but thats what he wants

d112crzy · « **Reply #3 on:** January 20, 2010, 11:11:23 PM »

I believe Spiker(Bigdaddycheeseburger) did over 500 on Crome. And Justin(DRQPQUT) did around 520 on Crome as well.

crome is 150 and strait forward ectune is 175 and a license nightmare thats just software if you have to buy the emulator i would personaly go with the ectune demon deal thats going on

tuning and making power have not much to do with the software but the TUNER using it.

got a pro hondata tuner tuning your car on CROME? good luck. AEM tuner using CROME? he is gonna be annoyed...

depending on what your doing, the car, the power, and most importantly the TUNER. your gonna use different shit.

so... STOP ASKIGN ON THE INTERNET WHAT YOU SHOULD DO AND CALL YOUR TUNER!

bigwig · « **Reply #6 on:** January 21, 2010, 02:17:15 AM »

Whatever your local tuner that you want to work with will do, is what you should do. Ectune and Neptune will probably top that list. I'm pretty sure most people that tune frequently are done with Crome for the most part.

By what, exactly? The fact that the car cranks less than five seconds before starting? That he has no sync errors, and can idle the car below 1000 rpms without sync errors piling up? By the box not shitting itself?

Oh, you mean annoyed by the fact that a free/cheapware application is easier to use and gives better results than the AEm he touts. Got it.

Zing!

eCtune is a nice software, but it's a bitch with the force update and licence that you need 10 steps and need to wait 24 hours because it's not an automatic system. The fact that you can't use your ostrish on Crome after that...

Still a nice software with nice feature tho.

Crome free do the job if you don't need antilag and launch countrol.

It's the best bang for the bucks since it's free, but you need to try antilag

I like ectune but I'm not a fan of driving my car on an ostrich all the time. If there was only a way to use a chip with single car ectune.

bigdaddyvtec · « **Reply #12 on:** January 21, 2010, 01:16:18 PM »

I made 620 on Crome Pro on a LEED tune... for 2 years untouched raped like snitchbodys anus on the set of an underoos male model photoshoot.

Car was making 500 off a street tune on pump 1st pull on the dyno, got 520 out of it in the end and 380TQ on pump 92

eCtune and Crome pRo get my vote... The updating is a non isuue 99 percent of the time and the shit is rockl saolid... Fuck a S300 ro an aem, and motherfuck a SAFC hack

Listen big guy, when you build a software, you don't build it to pissed off people who use it. Otherwise, they will look for key in hand option like Hondata or other shit. Tuners are not software engineers, they know about tuning, not who to build software. They don't want to waste 36 hours (how long I needed to wait to have eCtune installed in my car) before running a damn software. I paid 200$, I want my fucking license now to use it now not in 36 hours.

You need to request another license when you switch from eCtune to Crome.

Btw, I tune, I weld, I wrench, I build on my own. I'm not a dummy who pay someone to do something on my car. I don't have a 600hp car, but if I ever own one, it will be because of me and anybody else... (I'm not talking to you personally, just to saying that I'm not stupid and I can do good things)

Anyway, I'm drunk

All u do is reset ostrich the when you wanna ectune hit get license and it should pop right up the bitch is that I just had to pay $20 to switch from ostrich to demon license

98vtec · « **Reply #27 on:** January 22, 2010, 01:37:04 AM »

thats not that big of a deal though. I'm very excited for the update coming next week. there is supposed to be some pretty big updates and i would imagine they are of a huge benefit to people with the demon.
