Hanna at Roots can tune you up too.

Smelly; how much for a 2 step on an ECU? I got tuned by Hannah a while back and he didn't slap it on there. You mentioned something about it at oaks once. I <3 bang bang bang

I typically dont respond to threads like this, but i have heard this so many times im kinda tired of it....

Unless it has cams and rocker arm stoppers I dont mess with Rev limit and unless they have springs i dont raise it above 7500

Your prob talkin about Kosta...cause thats the only SR car i ever had on the dyno that had an issue. Halfway through the 4th run of tuning it started to knock, its unfortunate but sometimes thats what happens with a used motor and you dont know the history. I felt bad checked it out for him (for free) and also charged him half the amount he owed for tuning. as well as answered a ton of questions for him every time he called while he was trying to fix it. anyway, here is the actual dyno plot from one of his runs....notice the revlimit



sorry for jacking your thread, but if need any help we can certainly help you, we do not offer chip burning but we are an Authorized Power FC tuner.

Nistune is an australian company that makes Nissan Programming software. They also offer realtime programmable daughterboards.

Nistune is not standalone - it goes inside ur ecu like a hondata s300. It plugs in with a usb cable.

Nistune isnt something that you would buy if u were having ur car tuned elsewhere - more for if you're tuning it yourself.

It is however - very nice. Their boards are compact, and the software is very good at logging and supports inputs.

If you plan on editing the car urself down the road - that is a very good option.
