I had the same dillema as you. With the AFC you can upgrade on the fly without having to wait for upgrades...I should've saved up for an XEDE or AEM EMS instead...With flashes such as dynoflash and buschur you get free upgrades for al ittle more money and the flashes seem to yield more power...look into a flash instead of the AFC...just my .02

 

i hear what your tellin me. the thing is the time for the tunning i work six days a week and heard of people having to go back several times to finely tune with standalones but with the utec and the afcII you have a choice between maps for like daily driving , race gas, pump gas,ect.... thats another thing its my daily driver . oh yeah i already have the afcII i just dont wanto dig a hole where i cant get myself out of

thanks for info itresting stuff keep em comin

 

im about to send mine to works for the P2 flash. i like the idea of the boost controled by the computer. .02

 

If you lik ethe idea of bost controlled by the ecu - - check out my Ecutek based Dyno Flash which has full controll of the boost levels and you are not getting the boost control with a boost pill - but rather from the ecu controlling the factory solinoid

 

^Hes right ya know...I'd do what this man said...hes the boss.

 

WORKS was the first tuner to flash EVO ECUs since the Spring of '03.

During the Summer of '03 we reverse-engineered the OEM boost control system with our in-house engineers.

By the Fall of '03, WORKS controls boost through the factory ECU by controlling the factory solenoid.
The P2 has stood the test of time and never looked back ever since.

We have never raised our P1 and P2 prices and we use what we sell.

 

uh oh...

 

Ok so far ive heard go w\flash . what about when the weather gets or when the wheater gets hot will any of the specs that are programmed need to be changed so it wont compromise my daily driving or will it be ok i read up on the p2 from works its intresting. i dont quite understand the ecutek that dynoflash said . oh and could i still use the afcII to finley tune those flashes oh yeah one more thing i have a spare ecu from an 03 evo 8 if i send in that one to be flashed w\my mods will it work in my car or can it be made to work in my car

thanks guys intresting stuff

 

one more thing the utec also controls timing and fuel maps such as flashes do and its user controlable is that a good thing or a bad thing (i also think it controlls boost) whats your feedback on this guys

thanks again

 

anybody

 

works may have been the first to flash an ecu, but that is it . you guys are way behind on getting stuff to the market. it took so long for the exhaust that I dont want to buy from them

 

Flashes suck.
You still control nothing and every car is different. How do you really know what's good for their test car, is really good for yours?
You already have an easy to tune AFC. Pick up a logger and a boost controller and your set for life. Here's a little guide;

If you want nothing to do with tuning you car then get a flash and hope it's right.

 

Thats good stuff thanks larry anyone else, has anyone had experience with the utec

 

Sorry it takes us so long to get products to market. Our products are extensively tested for many months and many thousands of miles before we give it the thumbs up.

For example, our exhaust fitments are perfect and backed by a factory-matched warranty. We now offer:
2 downpipes (bare and ceramic coated)
2 cat replacement options with no CEL lights
2 mid pipe options and
3 axle back options
