Why do people keep thinking about Accessport? Out of the 3 major reflash routes for the Z, it's the only one that doesn't custom tune for your mods in any way. Is it the nifty little handheld device? I wouldn't trust reflashing my car to something that runs off AA's...

you will be very happy. Also, the AccessPort can't do what Cipher can. I think they are priced similar too.

You could just read the longest thread on the tuning section, theres about 4 months worth of reading about our product.

No you don't have to remove your ECU, we send you a cable and the software.

Our website has an e-mail link on it where you can ask us questions and find out information.

I think its also the little gadjet that attacts people to the accessport. People like to have a toy to play with for there money. I know people with the accessport and they didnt really even care about the reflash, the just like having the little screen on there dashboard all lit up so they feel all high-tech.

*sigh* yes, I'm a gadget freak myself, it's in my blood. We'd like to have some sort of handheld but the cost of development and support would be astronomical and it just doesn't make business sense for us. We have a prototype built and working, but the cost on that alone would be $500 retail without the license, you can buy a NEW laptop for that price, and a used junky laptop that will run our software can be found for next to nothing, so it just didn't make sense at this time.

If you want something cool on your dash, get the Zeitronix ZT2-LCD. ***** mad tight.
