    Default Shop for tune?

    Anyone have any recommendations for getting a full tune on a Adaptronic ECU equipped Mazdaspeed motor?

    I think Cobb only tunes their accessport and PTP doesn't have a dyno...

    Steve Kan's a great guy and tunes a ton of different vehicles.

    Kan is one of the best. Like I said, he had never seen the aduptronic software and did mine spot on.

    Steve Kan is THE GUY for tuning rotary vehicles and he has moved into piston cars now too. He gets paid to fly all around the country and Canada to tune stuff. Really smart dude.

    I'd trust Steve Kan with my car, and that's a short list.

    Can you gents running adaptronic provide some comments on it? Install/Tuning (dyno time to sort things out, primarily)/Fuel Management/Reliability kind of stuff.

    Anyone running the 440 yet?

    I'm looking into getting one after getting my TT power to weight classing back.

    it's the only pnp ecu for a NB that's not a piggy back. install is easy unless your dumb, tuning is easy if you know how to tune, fuel management... yes is has that, reliability... well that depends on who tuned your car.
