Lotus Emira V6 ECU Tune - Bench Flash

[TFS]

Im interested too:
7400rpm
2.8’ pulley
93 octane
Bolts on (headers+titanium exhaust system (decat-midpipe-muffler) plus valve controller

3 questions:
-is dealer software update still possible on the ecu after flash
-does the car keep the stock characteristics in terms of burbles/pops/bangs on the overrun
-how will you ‘fine’ tune the car for the region (hot humid climate)

That will depend on which part of the dealer software update. There are different components for different software.
For us in China who got cloning done from Ryan, we could bring the original to the dealer for update then clone back to the mod ECU.

@VF Tuner I saw that you’re not supporting the Uk or EU with the i4 tune. I presume the same goes for this v6 tune?

V6 we can do worldwide, no ECU swapping / cloning or anything like that

Once the flash is done, should I avoid letting dealer do software updates, especially until obdii tuning is possible?

Aka, could dealer software updates overwrite the tune?

They seem to do updates non stop. Clearly the car has bugs they are still working out

So how does it work for a v6 in Australia. Do you just send the data cable and i download the tune you provide and I reflash myself?

You will need to ship your ecu to VF.

I am committed. I have ordered and paid for my spare ecu from lotus. As soon as it arrives, we will have it programmed to car by dealer, and I’ll ship my original to VF to commence the

Sounds great! So in a few weeks from now we finally have something. Looking forward to it and will be next in line.. without pre ordering a new ecu if yours goes well

This is the hope!

I know that alientech (Italy) / AMT (Canada) are working together right now to be the first to offer emira flashing in North America.

I am betting @VF Tuner and .

Also, first is the wrong goal. Best is the correct goal.
