What's the difference between remote street tuning and dyno tuning?
Our remote street tuning process is about what most of our customers choose to go with. This option's most significant benefit is that you do not need to visit a shop or any additional hardware outside of an EcuTek Bluetooth module and your smartphone! This approach will require you to find an appropriate road course to perform wide-open throttle pulls in various gears that are recorded using the EcuTek mobile app. We will send step-by-step instructions along with a YouTube video you can follow along with.
Dyno tuning involves placing the vehicle on a dynamometer, essentially a set of rollers that simulate road conditions while the vehicle's engine is running. We then make various adjustments to the tune based on real-time data feedback from the data log. This is geared towards customers who want to complete the tuning process as soon as possible and also want to see what power numbers their car puts down. Another benefit is that we, or the dyno operator, can hear potential problems that may arise when performing dyno pulls. We will still likely ask you to perform a data log on the street as loads can change from the dyno to the street.
The cost tends to be higher as you need to rent a dyno at your local performance shop or our dyno at our Houston, TX, location.
