Why does ecutek have to be $650

I'm getting rid of my crappy accessport and getting a real tune.

For 400 (445 for STi) you can upgrade your AP and have it tuned. But it might be cheaper for you to sell your AP and spend the cash on the ECUTek.

If you want a custom tune with the AP you need the StreetTUNER upgrade or wait for tuners to get ProTUNER in their hands (beta is supposed to be at some tuners this week (shutup)).

Otherwise you are 'limited' to the off the shelf maps with a short upgrade path.

Im not going to sell the accessport until I have money saved up for the TD05H-16G turbo, fuel pump, and injectors. Then I'll get it dyno tuned after the turbo has been broken in
