tuned ecu's, chipped ecu's

Probly going to get flamed for this. Is there any company out there that makes a descent "tuned ecu" Plug & Play? Is it worth giving all the engine specs for them to supposedly design a ECU tune for your set-up? Anyone have any luck with Speed Innovations or Phearable.net? Let the flamming begin. LOL

BUT the whole reason for getting a chipped ecu or a tunable ecu is to get the car tuned specifically for your car, in the conditions that your car will be driven in.

Re: tuned ecu's, chipped ecu's

hey there my names kimberly. im new to this site. i was planning on ordering my ecu from speed innovations tomorrow. did u get one yet ? if i go through with it i'll let u know how it works . the guy explained to me its easier to just be able to plug it into your stock harness. i have a 88 civic hatch i just put a d16y8 in . i hope their ecu works. bcuz the damn diagrams for the pm5 wire colors do nooot match mine so i have been having loads of trouble figuring out the pinning. please wish me luck.
