First off, Zdyne is an awesome product...ahead of its time and very capable.

It does have some issues though...
• zero product development since, like 1999. While their major competition, Hondata, went on to continually improve their product, Zdyne went nowhere.
• expensive...even compared to Hondata. Ridiculous compared to the pgmfi.org crowds standards.
• limited to obd-0 and even specific ecus (pm6, pm7, pg7, pr4) No B16 ecus allowed.
• tech support consists of one guy...literally(I don't know that this is still true but it used to be)

I used to have a link to all the site with all the Zdyne maps but I can't seem to find it either.

Ahh, thats the link.

Yeah, Bill at zdyne does a good job... The lack of datalogging is a flat out shame. He's been promising it for years..

I still run it

Good feedback guys.

My buddy has bought it from Ebay for a good price.
Why is unavailability of datalogging an issue cos you still have to use wide band to tune it right? - I'm not too inclined on tuning.

should use a wideband to tune anyway... with datalogging its just 100000 times easier to tune. It would give you a plot graph of your air/fuel or whatever you want to see. But Zdyne isnt hard to tune just takes a few more min.
