Custom Tune Without A Tuner Box?

Hello all,

I'm looking at getting a custom tune mainly because most people report better fuel economy (and some extra power won't be turned down :D)

Do you have to get a capa box or similar to get a custom tune or can you simply get a custom tune done with the "auto learn" on the ECU switched off so it stays there?

I know the dealer may flash the ECU which would then wipe my tune, but I guess in this case I could just go back to the shop and get them to upload my saved tune in around 5mins.

Cheers all.

a few people are doing it, it involves opening up the pcm

as to cost imho not worth it

but you can call

powerchip or one of their agents if you are still interested

That won't work unless the other car is flashed back to standard. It's either that or send the box back to CAPA along with $150 or so, so they can clear the box.
