Is thid ever going to be released? or even a v1.7 for S5's?

 

Henrick said first quorter

 

I was wondering the same thing today, ive got an extra ECU sittin waiting for 2.0 to come out....

 

I'm in the same boat.

 

Awesome, I smell a BDay present!

Will running an RTEK hurt the possibilty of passing emissions tests at all?

 

i dont see why it would being a Modded ECU

 

i heard a rumor that you can order a 2.0 beta, but the source is not at all credible.

 

email to and from them. it turns outs that it will cost only about 10 more dollars to go from 1.7 to 2.0 so i just went ahead and got the 1.7 because all the 2.0 will be is a new chip i believe. they are also coming out with a 1.8 soon that supports 720cc primaries and secondaries, it will be the same price as the 1.7 and to move the from 1.7 to the 1.8 it will only be the cost of the new chip and you can install it your self.

i was just wondering on the release date for the 2.0 because im getting ready to buy one of your guy's upgrades and im wondering if i should wait for 2.0 or go ahead and get the 1.7. i was also wondering if i got the 1.7 is it possible to upgrade to 2.0 later?

No solid date yet, but almost the full price of the 1.7 will be able to be applied to the 2.0.

"The soon to be released v1.8 will allow for 720cc pri and sec. That is all
we offer. The code cannot be customized to 770c injectors.

v1.8 will probably $10-$20 more, if not the same price as the 1.7. To upgrade it will be at least $10 to cover the cost of the hardware. But if you are careful, you could swap the chip yourself without having to send the ECU in. All the modifications that need to be done will be done already.

i had quite the conversation with them. all i have to say is the 1.7 is amazing and the people over there are great.

 

but yea doesnt look like there are going to be plans for a S5 rtek any time soon

 

yea it will because the car runs rich even with the 720cc secondaries. i would advice picking up a safc or some thing that does the same thing and leaning the car out for the emmissions test along with all the other things such as alcohol.

 

rtek is god's way of telling you S5 people to quit hogging all the good parts.

 

2.0 is technically made.

The Rtek guys are based here in AZ.

They were asking us local guys for beta testers a few months ago but none of us could meet what they wanted for a good test.

The 2.0 should be pretty damn cool. I'd say it's pretty close to a Stand alone BUT obviously with less features. It manages the engine while giving you the ability to manipulate the fuel maps without a piggyback..

There should be a 1.8 which allows the use of 720's all around and if I remember right it might have a switch on it to just flip back to a 550/720 setup.

I know the 2.0 will have something like this.
I would love to get a Haltech but dependant on the final pricing the Rtek might be my choice since I'm still running stock turbo.

 

LMAO! WORD!

 

the rtek 2.0 isnt just a chip, they have to wire in a serial port or some port so u can plug in a cable to connect to a palm piolet or something so u can adjust things.....

he means that the price you paid for the 1.7 will mostly be taken off the price of the 2.0 , so if hypothetically, if 2.0 was like $400 you would only pay $300 if you allready have the 1.7

 

They need to make some S5 goodies dammit haha

 

Its really, really close. There's a few people around running the beta versions,
which has shown up a couple of minor problems, since fixed. Unfortunately its
been slow with winter and Christmas. The betas are all on modded cars which
don't tend to drive a lot during winter... we have poduction boards made and
parts ready to go, just need to finish the testing. 1st quarter is still most likely.

Consider it a standalone that's plug and play for S4 TII's and comes with a
great base map (stock). If you leave it with stock settings, then emissions
will not be affected as all the stock emissions controls are still present.

2.0 for S4 NA's will be next, likely beta in 2nd quarter.

and the mighty s5 since we have godly parts?

 

I really have it bad, since I want one for a S5 TII, 2 S5 NA's, and 3 S4 NA's. I have the 1.7 in my 10th AE, although I'm using 720's and 890's, with a S-AFC. Great product!!!

Also, according to my last emails with Mike, there will be a discounted price for the 2.0 to anyone with a previous version. Nearly 100% of the cost of your previous version credited to your upgrade. Great people over there!!! IIRC, I ahd mine shipped out on a Monday, and I recieved it on Thursday morning. Fast, quality service at a bargin price.

 

i wonder how easy it will be to tune?? laptop?? controller?? how will this work? can a basic rookie tuner be able to funtcion this 2.0? i have no experience with tuning exept with a safcII.

 

Will there be an S5 version or no?

 

What features will the Rtek 2.0 offer for an s4 n/a ? Why should I get this when I already have an SAFC, and don't plan on getting a Microtech?

 

watch the video on pocketlogger.com

you use a palm pilot. looks very nice from vid ive seen. has both graph and 3d maps for fuel and timing. just goes up and down a percentage of the stock map. you still just modify the stock map so if you set it to 0 it is stock again.
has both leading trailing and split timing maps for diddling with timing
also has a bunch of other nice *** functions.
its no joke. i love it for the money, but not sure if im gonna have to go more than rtek 1.7 and hks fcon before i just go straight haltech...i sure would love to keep all emissions functioning

 

what about the afm???

 

According to my email conversations with Mike, there are plans to release an option to remove the AFM.

 

coolnes. 56k here thats why i havnt watched the video. id love it if i could remove the AFM. its in such an awkward position it probably is all screwed up. so could a noobie operate this thing without blowing up mu car?? especially if its s4 n/a rotors??
