Hey folks.

We are looking now to grab a i4 Emira to do development on now that ECU tuning is possible (cloning/swap/unlock) looks like a few options will be possible.

We'd like to know how many people would be *legitimately* interested in a solution from us.

VF Tuner will take care of everything for you, including shipping your ECU out for unlocking if needed.

Two options are what would be provided

ECU cloning and swapping. You send us your ECU, we read the necessary information from it, clone it onto a tuneable ECU, return both to you.

ECU unlocking and tuning (original ECU). You send us your ECU, we send it out for unlocking, we tune it, and return it.


pricing is TBD but we are going to be offering *very competitive* pricing.

Cloning an ECU requires a secondhand ECU ~ prices ranging from $600~900


Our guarantee :
We commit to purchasing our own i4 Development vehicle and continually pushing the platform.
With our own in house Dynapak we will test and develop the best possible calibration for this platform.

Our plans for tune options:
91 octane stock vehicle
93 octane stock vehicle
E85 tuning
all variants with bolt ons.

Updates will be provided to all initial interest customers free of charge.

This will include an option for a VF Tuner flash device where you can flash maps / tunes via the OBDII port (after we finish all testing on our own emira).

Yes, interested [ You send us your ECU, we read the necessary information from it, clone it onto a tuneable ECU, return both to you.]
 
I am in the V6 camp so not eligible for this product, but just thought a little more structure to the poll could help. Hope you folks get great results!
  • [option A] ECU cloning and swapping. You send us your ECU, we read the necessary information from it, clone it onto a tuneable ECU, return both to you.
  • [option B] ECU unlocking and tuning (original ECU). You send us your ECU, we send it out for unlocking, we tune it, and return it.

We have purchased a ECU, we will begin the unlocking process and building out our OBD - Flashing solution.

As of now, to ensure we can support everyone equally, and continue to provide updates remotely, I think it is best that Option A will be the only option available *as of right now.*

We have a good idea already of how it works. (not really that much different than other MERC ecus we already do).

So, we will open up for people interested in purchase, with a money back guarantee. The link will be available shortly.


What option A gets you:
1. ECU Cloning services. We will clone your ECUs information to the new ECU
2. The Tune-able ECU will be unlocked and prepped for tuning.
3. Your original ECU will be untouched, unmodified.
4. Both ECUs will be returned to you, and you install the ready to tune ECU in your vehicle.
5. You will also receive a VF Tuner Wiflash device and software license.
6. you can flash maps to your vehicle over the OBDII port.

est pricing (due to ECU, unlocking, etc) is going to be around $1900.

Does item 6 mean we can basically add a 'base' tune ourselves??
I'm 100% in for having a tuneable ECU (ideally tuned already with a base map, so I'm ready to go without having to find a tuner here in Australia).

item 6 will allow you to flash maps over OBDII. (our premade tunes)
In time, we will add Support into our full tuning suite, and you can tune them yourself with access to the tables.
