Hi all,

Is their room to move with the standard chip?
Will all tuning will be lost when i disconnect the battery?

A flash tuner, it plugs into the OBD port and changes the tune on the computer. They are around $600+ tune cost.

i think you'll find they are closer to $900, the flash tuner 1s were around $600 but are no longer sold... Apparently AUs respond really well to a flash tune, normally they come with a generic tune which is a pretty good upgrade from standard... then your set for what ever mods you do in the future... (cam, turbo etc.)

im not the best person to answer this... someone correct me if im wrong but yes i think it is one performance tune, that will be flashed into your ecu, as for the extra tune, id assume its aother generic tune for example. you could have a economical tune, performance tune and a 98 octane tune. thats my idea anyway...
