So, not trying to beat you up on this but since my car is rwd, sport and manual i will need a completely different tune apparently. I'd offer $500 in light of that no more, and no worries if you're not interested.

Thanks

So the vehicle fee would still have to be bought too right?

No additional fees since it's the license that has not been used.

There are 3 cost components to an EcuTek tune:

1. Hardware (dongle, cable, USB key)
2. EcuTek license for the car
3. Tune

Since the Bluetooth kit retails for $450, are you saying SpecialtyZ sells their off-the-shelf tune and an EcuTek license bundled together for $350? That seems pretty generous of them, but in light of re-using an off-the-shelf tune... maybe. I mean, you can ask any price you want for anything, that's your prerogative. But in the interest of accuracy, are you 100% that this kit includes Points for the license as well as off-the-shelf tune files?

OP, I will certainly clean this up if I'm mistaken. But it reads somewhat confusing, so I'm asking for clarification that you're actually selling what you think you're selling.

I can answer a part of this.

Emailing with Seb, I can confirm he charges $850 for his OTS Ecutek package(Bluetooth dongle, desk key, and license) and an OTS map.

For $200 more you can go custom etune bringing you to the industry average of $1050-$1100 OTD.

Fantastic. I'm going to leave these two comments here because it helps explain things. Good job, 2.2Lude.

OP... GLWS.

Also to help the OP's potential buyers, if you buy this package and want/need a different OTS map from Seb, it'll be $400. Alternatively, you could do custom remote tune for $450, no brainier there.

Sorry if I am not explaining things clearly, I have given all of the info that I have from the kit. I posted a picture of the invoice, it was $800 from Seb @ Specialty Z. I NEVER used any of this, so it's still all brand new. IF you have the same car as I had and stillen intake and ark catback exhaust, this off-the-shelf tune should be perfect for you.

I am just trying to sell the set that I cannot use and recoup some of the costs, so I put it at $700 thinking that was reasonable for someone who it will work for. If not, I am open to reasonable offers.

Possibly interested, got few questions though.
This is just a single map right?
Does this remap the transmission as well?
And does this have any effect on the VDC/yaw sensor?

Here is what Seb said:


“You are selling the EcuTek kit correct? If you did not use it then you are good to resell with the license/flash points.

It includes multiple maps, not just one.
It modifies the firmness of the shifting of the transmission.
No, it does not affect/adjust the VDC/Yaw sensor.”
