d112crzy ecu

[19dabeast85]

Ha, that sn will get attention!

Got a weird question. I had d112crzy chip an ecu for me with crome and I need to let the dyno shop know which version of crome I have. (they only list crome gold that they'll tune).

Do any of you tuners who know him have an idea of which version he would have loaded?

Thx a ton.

I will hit him up for you.
chrome = sooo shiney. not another one.

your tuner should either be able to deal with crome or not.
they would need the Crome Pro or Dealer version to be able to tune you.
so it really does not matter what version jose runs, because if they can tune on crome
then they can get you taken care of. If they say no, go somewhere else.

I always forget the correct spelling dangit!!!! And I hate it when people spell it vtech, corrections made!

The tuner will be TDC out of Spartanburg, SC. VERY reputable so I'm not sure why they specify crome gold. From what you say it sounds like crome is crome in which case I should be fine.

Thanks for checking with jose.

[drummersteve7]

still waiting on a response.

but they should have their own version of crome.
The only way I see them ask you what version is because...

They are making you bring crome with you??
In that case you need crome pro/dealer to datalog and tune.
that is the only reason I see them asking.
But since you do not know I am assuming you have never tuned.

Nope, not a tuner, just will be hauling my chipped ecu to them and let them go at it. They have a reputation in the import world so I'm sure they know what they're doing, just the "crome gold" thing confused me.

I assume they can erase jose's and load their own version on my ecu if they want just like loading a new operating system on a computer????

[drummersteve7]

well when you go in for a tune, they should be starting from scratch.
not some other dudes tune.

thats how real tuners do it.
They start basemap style then mod from there.

pro... what version im not sure. I dont call him unless i need tacos

[drummersteve7]

yah brotha, I do heart tacos!

My money is on version 1.5
Don't ask me why I know that.....

They are probably just being lazy and just do full throttle tuning on your car. They can tune your car faster if the part throttle part of the map is already good enough or close.

Ive seen a few tunes come from big names where they just tuned full throttle and got part throttle good enough to run the engine, and said fuck it.

It shouldn't matter what version of Crome is loaded on your ECU now. They should use their own version and start from scratch. Not sure why they would even ask? Unless they want to cut corners and start with someones map.

ok... so what you are saying is that you are not going to be taking your car to them ?? and if you are only going to take them your ecu it is the exact same thing as what Jose did for you in the first place. Gave you a tune that is to his best knowledge a good one. There really is nothing they can do better without the car being there and they doing something with the tune.

If you are taking the car to them to "tune" the car then just take the damn car to them and let them deal with it.. that is why you are going to pay them for. And also if they have any questions about which crome it is ... tell them its Crome Pro 1.5. If they give you the run around then I would go somewhere else. Just my 2 cents !!

If you need another map or change something in your tune let me know and I will see what I can do for you !!

I missed that post about only taking the ECU. I agree that the map you have on your ECU now would be the same thing. if they aren't putting your car on a dyno don't waste your money on another blind map.

[19dabeast85]

Fellas, fellas. OK, sorry I ever said "take ecu to them", my bad. What I meant was I don't know alot about tuning and will just be taking my chipped ecu along for them to deal with when it gets dyno tuned.

I at least DO know what a basemap and the related dangers/underperformance of driving on one.

GhostAccord answered my question with "It shouldn't matter what version of Crome is loaded on your ECU now....."

Lets also clear something up: The dyno shop hasn't asked me which version of crome I have. I saw "crome gold" as the only crome product listed on their website and wanted to obtain my likely version in case it was an issue. Evidently I'm dumb and they'll just load their own program over jose's anyway.

You can read their tuning FAQ's. Looks like they tune WOT, partial, idle, throttle tip-in, etc. You tuners read it and tell me if they're competent. Seem to be to me!

[GhostAccord]

No doubt they probably are a reputable shop. The issue as I see it here is that you asked a question with some information that was misinterpreted. I assumed when you stated "and I need to let the dyno shop know which version of crome I have." that they had requested said information.

Oh well at least you got your answer and killed a few minutes of the day
