New ECUTEK News Flash

Hi All,
Just thought I'd let y'all know what I found on the ECUTEK website. It seems like there have been a bunch of companies who are able to reflash nowadays. But if you have any doubts about their "experience" ... I'd say go to Vishnu Performance.

For your reading pleasure:

Hmm ... do you think the boys at ECUTEK could do a scoreboard, to see which tuner has the most reflashes? Probably not ... it wouldn't be so nice for their other resellers, i guess ... but it would help us (the end customers) out, to figure out who's got the most experience.

On a different note ... didn't one of the i-speed guys go over to Vishnu to get their reflash dyno-tuned by Shiv? That sounded a little funny/fishy - cuz I thought there was some "bad blood" between them ... i'm sure I could do a better job with that thread search. I hope we don't get any of the East "Bay" - South "Bay" rivalries going (a la 2Pac and th Notor. B.I.G) ... j/k. Much love in the land of the SUBIES.

No i-speed uses Vishnu's dyno IIRC.

Comparing # of reflashes is meaningless. You have to compare quality of those reflashes. And, to compare quality of tuning, one must do research of customer feedback. That will give you a clear illustration of who does what, how and how much.

Alex, are you planning on dropping by Vishnu on Dyno Day 01-Mar-2003?

so alex ... if you normally do good work (which is what Vishnu is all about) and you do a lot of reflashes ... that usually adds up to a good thing (just my opinion).

Wingless, I got something planned, so I cannot come unfortunately, sorry.

Steve, yes, it is a good thing. What I meant, that numbers alone do not really mean anything.
