Sorry it's on another of his sites:

http://www.tactrix.com/product_info....c78cf2b83dbd92

openecu.org is the site for the software though.

 

Definitely let us know when you get the full package ready for sale as i want to buy one too.

 

I e-mailed Al on Thursday night last week, and got my tune within a few hours. I flashed my ECU at lunch Friday, and it ran smoothly on the way home; I haven't had a chance to feel the power yet, as I drove home in heavy traffic and then left on vacation for a week- in another car.

Once I return from Myrtle Beach I'll let you know how it feels.

 

I emailed Wednesday and still haven't gotten mine. I was stoked about the "usually within an hour" part but apparently that's not very realistic. Keep us posted on the results though.

 

Guys, I am in Colardo Springs, CO and tuning away in this high altidtude nightmare !

This is how I make my maps the best you can aquire, by going in the field and crafting breat base maps to work - yes even with 91 octane at 6,000 plus ft !!!!!!!

Sadly, I have a touch of altitude illness and a spliting head ache for the past two days

I am feeling better this afternoon and I am going to pump out another 5 E FLASH! maps this evening

Thanks everyone for your patience

 

Hope you enjoy it !


On the time of delivery its really just a matter of the luck of the draw

In order to do these I break out three lap tops and start moving my old Tech Tom base files (over 5,000 individual files) and configuring them for the Ecu Flash

Of course, I only undertake these when I am feeling very mentally altert and prepared to sit down for a solid two hour block at least

I am very proud of the maps I am delivering they not only work great - they look great - you will love them even if it takes a few more days !

 

Watch out for alcohol and salt (no Margaritas!) and drink plenty of water to combat altitude sickness; consider talking with your doctor about Diamox (acetazolamide) to prevent this if you travel there in the future; it can prevent symptoms of AMS, but has its own set of side effects (such as tingling and dizziness), so the water/no salt/no alcohol thing is your best first defense.

Hope you feel better soon.

 

Could somebody do me a summary of the Dynoflash offering here in this thread? This is quite long and my ADD makes it more efficacious to get a "for dummies" version...What I am looking for is the ability to reflash from my laptop for differing setups and the use of 100 octane (track days) and then back to 91 octane for daily driving...Is this what Dynoflash is offering?

 

1. Buy a cable from tactrix.com to interface your laptop with your car
2. Download/install ecuflash for free from openecu.org
3. Run the program while connected to your car, do a "read from ecu" and then save that to a file
4. Email Al and attach that base map along with the instructions he asks for in the beginning of this thread
5. Upload the map that he gives you back and go drive your car

Honestly though if you don't understand what's going on here without needing help then mucking around with tuning your ecu may not be the best idea.

 

Thanks for the breakdown. I have experience tuning with UTEC, certainly not enough experience to write my own maps...What I am asking, simply, is can I have stored maps for different setups (octane/turbos/etc), and simply flash to suit my need, from my own laptop...I may want 5 different setups, variable, dependent on track, octane and modifications.

 

Thanks... thought I was going crazy not finding it!!

 

You can have as many maps as you create/buy and flash them whenever you need to. All you do is save them on your laptop so I guess the only constraint would be hard drive space. Being that the files are ~512k I doubt you'd ever fill your drive with ecu maps

 

Np. I thought there was a link from openecu (would make sense) to the tactrix site for ordering the cables. I think I actually found it myself the other way around with the cable site first. Cross-linking would make things a bit more intuitve I think.

 

So that would, thusly, allow me to reflash to stock map, just in case (sale or conceivable warranty work)?
