Well, I'll reply if nothing else but to get this back up top.

I love ym Z-Dyne gold... It's great.. You can adjust the idle and watch the tach move up and down... sweeeet. <That was for the *******>

For you racers out there, I run boost ALL the time. The Z-Dyne gold is seamless, much like driving a car that was MEANT to have a turbo on it from the factory. No bucking or craziness. It's fun and dead reliable.

Only problem I have is if the battery dies, or the battery is disconnected, you'd better have a Laptop with your program available

Your fuel/timing maps should not be erased if you reset or if your battery gets disconnected.

How easy is this thing to tune? Can an average Joe tune it or do you absolutely have to be on a dyno with a wideband O2 to even consider playing with it? How does altitude/temperature effect the unit? I'm debating between the silver and gold.. I just want reliable.. Power would be nice but power got me into trouble last time.. hahaha..

TIA

Its very easy to tune, it comes preloaded with different maps. Get the gold your kick yourself later for getting the silver.

Right 100%,i disconnected the battery like 100+ times since zdyne gold install,never lost a map,there's something wrong if you gotta reprogram yours after a battery disconnect.

I disconnecte mine and it acted like a stock HF ecu when I tried to crank it... WAY too much fuel and other stupidness... Oh.. Wait a sec... I pulled the codes afterward and had an IAC... OH YEAH. We plugged that in AND reloaded the program.... maybe it's not that bad afterall!!
