Where are you guys shop located ? And is it better to put it on a dyno a to the runs to get send you the logs or is it the same thing with idle runs/pulls and street runs if we’re not located in the same state? Does it make a difference
Locked ecu from battery being drained happen to me twice while uploading hussain tune. Lukily I was with a guy that knew more than me and he had Hussain cell and we called him. Car was locked up and going nowhere otherwise.
You can tune a completely stock car if you wish, but a heat exchanger at least will prevent heat soaking and give you consistent power with back to back pulls. If you plan to do mods anyways, get the tune once you have all the parts, so you won’t have to retune later after tuning it stock!
That’s entirely up to ur specific dealer and ur relationship with them. Most dealers don’t care about some simple bolt ons and tune if the warranty work is not engine related, but still recommended to flash back to stock (if ur mods allows) when going to the dealer and remove the EcuTek module.
This is my first car im modding so im new to this but basically these tunes are being created without having to actually go dyno the car correct? And if i did decide to dyno the car can any other tuner flash files onto the ecutek? I live in California so a dyno from you guys isn’t possible unfortunately
Yes! Everything can be done remotely and without a dyno, welcome to the 21st century lol. And once ur tune with us via email is done, no need to flash a different file on to dyno, unless our tuner sees a reason for a revision. Once a tune is purchased, we will walk u thru each step via emails, super simple process once u get everything set up!
No need, the EcuTek Bluetooth module is universal and can be used in multiple cars at the same time. What is locked to each car is the license associated with the ECU.
My ecutek does not want to pair up! It keeps telling me I have to download the app! Which I do have! So far, I'm disappointed with this product. I'm thinking about sending it back!
@Legendz nope not at! I've been emailing z1motorsports because that's where i purchased the tune, they have said that they have been getting multiple emails about this and are working with ecutek to see if its the tune or our phones. No updates on z1 yet.
Hi! Sorry for the late response, please make sure you're following the video correctly, and follow the instructions for your specific flashing method! Otherwise, check out this link from EcuTek: ecutek.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SUPPORT/pages/327698/EcuTek+Knowledge+Base
Did anyone figure this problem out? I'm also having the same issue. I can find it on the app but it just won't pair. When i choose "My Car" the following page says "failed to initialize vehicle interface"
Just got Mines 30 sec ago can’t wait!!
Racebox!!!! Appreciate these simple instructions. I’m about to send Alex my files 😎. So excited!
Heyyyyyy that car looks familiar! ❤
Thanks for letting us use it for the video! 😊
What year is that q?
Also do you still have it? How’s it been with the tune
Wow this is so easy. I have a ford TAURUS SHO & I had to do so much uploading, downloading for my fine. This is so quick and fast OMG.
Another thing to avoid the sudden ignition turning off. Turn the hazard lights on
can you do a custom burble tune through the app or you have to go oto racebox and get on the dyno?
All u need is a custom tune thru us, most of our tunes r done remotely without a dyno.
7:07 what do you mean by do the run ?
Do whatever log we specified, it could be a WOT 3rd or 4th gear pull, an idle log, a daily driving log, etc.

RACEBOX is where I'll be going for my tune. Def! #'s don't lie and bangforBuck...lol
Love the enthusiasm! We ready when u ready, hit our site for the sauce 😈
I have a stock q60 would I need to get a heat exchange and new intake to get this flash tune ?

How many amps do I put on the battery charger?
10A should do fine for flashing the car and making sure it stays charged.
Is Using These Warranty Safe? Would like to get more info on that
That’s entirely up to ur specific dealer and ur relationship with them. Most dealers don’t care about some simple bolt ons and tune if the warranty work is not engine related, but still recommended to flash back to stock (if ur mods allows) when going to the dealer and remove the EcuTek module.
Do u guys have off the shelves tune ?
Is it plug and play can you reflash it by phone anytime u want or you need a computer
If you have phone flash, yes you can flash the car at anytime with the ProECU app on your smartphone!
I was trying to do this but the bluetooth module wouldn’t appear on my phone bluetooth settings, I tried it a couple times and never worked.
If you have the newer BTLE module, u have to find it in the EcuTek app, not ur phone’s Bluetooth settings!

If I bought a used ecutuk dongle, does the previous owner need to erase his car from it or I can still use it on my car?
No need, the EcuTek Bluetooth module is universal and can be used in multiple cars at the same time. What is locked to each car is the license associated with the ECU.
So do i need a deskey if i want to be using my phone flashes?
For a BMW the Deskey is required for the first initial flash, subsequent flashes can be done with phone flash if you purchase it.
great video man
Would it still work if you get one from a q50 to a q60?
Yes, it will
Which tuner should I buy on your sight if I want to hear the pops
That requires our custom tune, depending on ur setup you’ll have to pick between stock turbo pump gas, ethanol, or upgraded turbo tunes.
will a deskey work on a chromebook
Unfortunately, you need a laptop that runs Windows OS.
how do we get burble tune on this race box
By purchasing and finishing a custom tune with us, at the end we will give u a choice of different maps, burble map can be one of them.
Great video 🔥
can you buy used ecutek device ?
Yes, you will just need to purchase a license and select a flash option (phone flash or laptop DESkey) when you buy the tune from us.
@@goracebox it needs everything correct? That flash drive key (the device that plugs in via USB)and all the dongles ?
Only need the DESkey if u want to flash with a laptop, if u choose phone flash, the EcuTek OBD2 module and a smartphone is all u need!
Can you unplug this?
Yes, your tune is flashed to your ECU. The Bluetooth OBD2 module is only needed when connecting to the app or computer.
Is this CARB compliant? 😔
No lol
Does this hurt my blinker fluid?
0_o

Were u able to connect it? Also cant

@@Mcvc3haven’t either have you?
can i just leave the car on?
For the flashing part, your car can only be in accessory mode (ignition on, engine off).
So I need to leave the car on accessory mode all while I wait for you guys to reply with the email?
@joseguzman2348 good point never thought of that
Why mine one doesn’t come with Deskey or license key in the bag
Hey there, you will only receive the DESkey if you opt for that flash option. Otherwise for phone flash users, the Bluetooth module is all you need!
Damn never used a battery charger to reflash my car. Good idea.
Highly recommended!
My battery gave out when I was flashing mines and car got stuck in limp mode. Luckily I was able to get it back to normal.
@@Banana69999how long did it take you to go from limp mode back to normal?
@@gainzter72 I went to get a new battery and retuned again and it worked normally
First :D
Wassup shawty
Bro just come do it for me lol
