It would be good to learn how to do something like this yourself, but just imagine how many borken engines there will be when inexperienced DIY'ers tune their own cars. A good product none the less.

Agree with all the above and will now make sure that i am carrying a good stock of T5 engines!

Good find! - seems pretty good and is reasonably priced.. it would be better if there was a library of modified files based on different specs to get people started or to use out the box. i guess it's just like a primitive version of the PPC/Softloader systems for the ME7 cars..

ummmm big yes from me ,,, i will openly say that i have no trust in some so called tuners ,, my opinion is they can work from a manual and probably know there stuff on standard volvo cars ,,However tuning and remapping is a totaly different storey,,, do they know there stuff do they really know what there doing ??? theres so many thing,s to take into account when mapping a car,, i have my doubts .. my so called remap which is supposedly a custom map does not look that good on a dyno graph AFR it,s ok and the car runs well but it,s close to the limit imho !!!!! i for one will be following this ecu and will purchase one in the future ,,, my thoughts

If the tuners cant get it right what hope has the mere mortal got.

big pile of manure and fans come to mind.

Readview is going to have a roaring business.
