Agreed, there is nothing like true map switching capability. Though the EcuTeK can do some wonderful things, the map switching still needs a little work, though the problem EcuTeK is having is limited space on the ECU. There is not enough space to actually put another fueling, timing map and a few other things.

Though I was trying to figure something out with the EcuTeK software, might work (switchable maps for different octanes), though not quite sure yet. Will keep everyone posted.

So Davon how has the car been running? How often do you use the map switching capability? I know a lot of people always want it, though I know many people that get a switchable system, but rarely if ever use them.

The car is great, but just like every other mod you get used to the power and the car feels the same as it did when it was stock. I wouldn't say i switch maps alot but i do run race gas every so often when im bored and want to have some fun with the car. Also i'm going to the track next week so ill be running race gas there.

Well you run the maps so that is definitley a good thing. I totally understand getting use to the power. Though remember how easily you can pass a car on the highway. These cars are quite quick for what they are.
