Re: quick question
So, "yes" you can tune with a factory ECU and "no" you can't. If your "chip" is soldered into the board, then it probably cannot be overwritten and therefore is NOT tunable.
Hope this answers your question

Re: quick question
if your factory ECU is already chipped, but does not have some sort of programmable hardware in it, (Hondata S300, Neptune RTP or Demon, etc) then, no, a tuner cannot tune it. Unless said tuner uses another ecu to tune with and then burns the tune into your chip.
So, "yes" you can tune with a factory ECU and "no" you can't. If your "chip" is soldered into the board, then it probably cannot be overwritten and therefore is NOT tunable.
