Flashpro base map vs tune
I just installed the Flashpro software and found 2 base maps (toda & mugen) that seem to be fairly close to my bolt-ons. My question is, will one of these two maps be sufficient for me to have the car running right or should I have it e-tuned (e-tunez, evans, etc..) Will there be a noticeable difference between the two?
Bolt-ons are Berk HFC, Greddy SE and K&N
Thanks

I had e-tunez tune mine and while I did not see huge gains on the dyno, there is a huge improvement in driveability and response. It's much better than a stock calibration after being tuned. One of the side benefits is that by tuning they can dial your STFT and LTFT in to just a couple percent which is much lower than stock. I'm very happy with the tune, and I'm not loosing any mileage either.....win / win!!
I've got a review in this forum....goes into more detail.

Typically there is little power to be gained as mentioned earlier. The drivability is a big difference and depending on the tuner you may find another 15% more low end torque

I was the beta S2000 for Steve at e-tunez, and really love how the tune turned out. They are really easy to work with, & to get you the tune & feel you want.
Highly recommend them!!
I can't comment on other services since I haven't used them. I can only tell you e-tunez worked great for me!!

good luck if you do an etune--let us know how you like it! i'd love to see the maps to compare them, but i'm not sure whoever performs it would like that.
