Forgive me, I'm a noob.

I read that 04caliwrx wanted to be able to switch maps between 91, 100 and c16 in order to make the most out of a big turbo setup and didn't realize that you could do this quickly, cheaply, reliably and easily with ecutek.

Have things changed with EcuTek that allows you to do this now?

Any info on the above? Just wondering what duration and lift the cams are as I have a set of weird oneoff's from JUN from back in the day and still to this day have no idea what the hell the spec's are, have to say the car runs like a bat out of hell with them so I guess it's not a big deal knowing but I just "Have to know"

I assume the cars done and on it's way to being broken in so I guess this can be served as a *bump* and how's she run??

With EcuTek's EasyECU you can change maps, but you need a laptop to do it.

Its not even a break-in tune, its just a best guess map I put on. Matt is supposed to come by to finish the "tune" part of it
