Hello I have a semi built engine with a turbonetics kit looking to up the boost just a little bit and was looking at the utecs but then someone said it was junk don't use it and they said go uprev osiris so then again someone else said don't go osiris that's junk im running the stupid tn reflash and in need of a tune, what affordable option would be the best, please help thanks also a local guy has a unichip forsale I could prolly get cheap what would be the best option any of those 3 have to be better than the tn reflash lmk thanks

 

There is a Tuning forum here with lots of recommendations. Check it out.

 

i dont take advice from anyone who cant explain to me why they have that opinion.. experience, technical information, etc.

youve mentioned none of tht..

btw..U wont want a UTEC.. You want Osiris.. which is actually the truth..BUT...... YOU SGHOULD JUST TRUST ME JUST CUZ.

 

Longest. Sentence. Ever. Made.

 

Osiris would be fine for Turbonetics kit power.

 

+1 I would try to avoid piggy back tunes, but that's just me.

 

We just tuned a Turbonetics kit with 750cc injectors, Stock Maf at 10lbs on UPREV and it came out great. I think UPREV would be your best option for your set up.

 

Uprev doesnt control boost, so make sure you factor that into your pricing as well.

My UTEC was tuned properly and ran great. The dont buy a UTEC crowd is almost completely comprised of people that have never tuned/used one.

You can get a used UTEC for 500$ and self tune it easily. UPREV might be a little more refined at $700, but you dont get a boost control solution and electronic boost controllers with overboost control are not cheap.

 

Well ya I would get a boost controller. The uprev I was looking at was 500 off there website and speed and sound in stl can dyno tune with the uprev for 7-800. Anything is better than the tn reflash, ima go uprev, thanks guys

 

The main problems with UTEC are that most tuners either suck at tuning them or have never tuned them, and (2) they are finicky devices. I had so many electrical gremlins with (2) UTEC's (warrantied the first one but nothing changed) finally switched to Osiris and it's night and day difference in reliability and smoothness. We also got the idle and injector scaling dead on with Osiris, not possible on UTEC. True, UTEC has more safety features for boost applications (like overboost cut) but you'll likely blow sooner due to a crap/improper tune, not overboost.
