About EcuTek
EcuTeK, is the software used by the worlds top tuners to adjust the factory ECU in your car.
This is done purely via the factory cables in your car and requires no soldering, no chips and absolutely no wiring modifications.
EcuTeK features:
- Fully customisable to suit your car.
- Live data logging of the data stream within your cars ECU.
- Ability to tune your cars ECU to suit your modifications.
- Can be fully reversed back to the standard factory settings.
- Still allows your preferred servicing technitians to scan and test the factory ECU protocols
- Does not stop your car manufacturer / Dealer from scanning and checking the ECU
EcuTeK Benefits
- More Power and Torque.
- In many cases the same or better fuel economy.
- Your car with factory standard ECU settings is detuned, your EcuTeK tuner can improve your car with no mechanical modifications
- Used by Subaru, Mazda, Mitsubishi dealers, and country distributors around the world.
- By using the factory ECU, you only re tune the part of the ECU that is needed.
(with after market and replacement ECU's you pay for a whole new retune)
This is not a piggyback ECU or a replacement ECU, the software allows changes to be made to the factory program code!
Absolutely no chips, wiring mods or hardware is needed.
All tuning is done via the Factory wiring harness.

Why Reprogram the Original ECU ?
- Reprogramming the original ECU is by far the cleanest, safest and quickest way of correctly compensating for engine, induction and exhaust modifications. The maps in the standard ECU may be adjusted to cater for virtually any modifications that are likely to be made to a car.
- Civilised features such as cold start and stable idle are all retained, whilst performance mapping begins from the (already extremely good) standard Subaru map rather than from a blank sheet of paper.
- Risky boost clamps, bleed valves, boost controllers and piggy back modules may all be discarded and replaced by a pure and accurate mapping adjustment.
- The safety features of the ECU are retained, such as sensor checks, fuel cut, boost cut, rev limit, speed limit and 'limp home' mode, though they may be altered to suit the car and its modifications. E.g. if the ECU detects a problem (engine over-temperature or failed sensor), it is still in full control of boost pressure and is able to take evasive action to preserve the engine. This is in stark contrast to external controllers and piggy back modules that either take over control of engine functions, or fool the ECU about the state of its sensors.
