Default Utec vs Technosquare Reflash

I've read on technosquare's website that one of the features of its reflash is eliminating the electronic throtte giving you the ablility to do burnouts. Does the Utec also have this feature and what are the differences between the reflash and UTEC. Mods: Fast Intentions dominator exhaust/resonated test pipes, stillen dual intake.

Techno's website quotes "The Technosquare ECU flash also changes the electronic throttle control setting. Even if you push the gas pedal to floor, it doesn't mean your throttle is opening 100%.
Nissan sets the throttle characteristic for various particulars, such as torque management for drivability, or Venturi effect for faster induction and more. This is fine for the average Joe content to run his car stock, but a lot of enthusiastic drivers find it very annoying.
Technosquare puts you in control of the throttle (but still maintaining VDC or TRC features), so when you step on the gas pedal all the way, the throttle opens all the way and stays open.
As the result, engine can utilize higher flow intake and exhaust system improving (optimizing ?) throttle response."

i dont see anywhere does it state you can do a 'burnouts'

is your car auto or manual? the throttle reprogramming benefits are more noticable on the autos...

I have an auto. I was assuming that if you hit the gas teh throttle is open 100% you coudl do burnouts. The only reason you can't do them now is the electronic trottle bascilyl shuts off your power onec you hit a certain RPM while holding teh rbake. If i actaully got a 100% open throttle while holding the brake woudlnt' that mean i coudl do a burnout?

i have a 2004 track. and yes it manual, and i cant do burnouts. (not that id ever want to). but in the beginning, i tried it of course. and once u even tap redline or near, the rpm's start shuttin down. and then finally stall, which will make u look like an idiot.

so i see what he's saying, how techno says nissan has almost a cap to their full throttle. techno says with their tune, the throttle stays open. (so u control it)
