I posted the damage there. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks.
it doesn't even look like it took the paint off. just looks like a scuff of some sort. maybe if you just go over it with a clay bar it'll come off.

Waste of time and money for the VIII or IX. Its expensive because you have to buy a license for it and then pay for the tune. Plus its behind the ECU "homebrew" scene here....pretty much why ECUTek isn't investing anymore work for the VIII or the IX.

For the X its one of the best options for now until ECUFlash catches up.

I said earlier I got mixed up between ECUTek and UTEC, my question is now on UTEC instead of ECUTek.

Anyway, is it normal for rear tires to wear out, the inner side faster than the outer side? Mine seem to do so when I drop the car with lowering springs and my friend told me it is okay and it is natural.

If not, I will go for alignment this tue or so. Any suggestion of alignment shops?

Still a waste of time and money now. Early in the game it was this or the AEM pretty much. A lot of the stuff you could do with the UTEC you can do with the stock ECU now. Several people on this forum have switched back to the stock ECU from the UTEC if you search around.

Look in the UTEC forum and also check out the lack of support the product has received over the last couple of years.
