There are finally RTEK chips for S5s!!!

Did anyone else notice this?

They only have RTEK 1.0s for the S5 NA that gets rid of the OMP but atleast they are releasing S5 units now.

I saw that, and they're currently develloping 2.0's for both S4 and S5 NA's. Full tunability for less than the cost of a Megasquirt!

why didn't you just get an s4 then? leave the s5 for people that are willing to spend real money.

seems the s5 gets all the body kits and crap made for them...so I'm glad I have an s4 (with an rtek 2.0 I might add), cause they have all the performance stuff made for them.

yeah

not only that
consider it from the manfacture's point of view

all fc owners are poor (except for the 3 known rich fc owners)

for every 100 fc owner, 1 of them will buy parts to upgrade

out of that 1, only a hundredth of that could afford something more than a s-afc

so you are targetting that that small number, and then you have to convince him of you product over whatever

with more s4 owners than s5, you see why it has the pritory?

why would someone want to tune with a piggyback?

i still dont see how a 2.0 is more valuable than a 1.7 or the 1.8 thats supposed to come out

go check out the 2.0 more
it has adjustable 3d timing and fuel maps, w/ a very nice diagnostic feature and DELETES the fuel cut code and not just trick the ECU like a normal FCD.
The 2.0 and even the other rteks are the best thing to happen to poor FC owners in a while. It utterly kicks *** for what it is and is AFFORDABLE.

I was and still am a big rtek supporter.
However, I wanted far better drivability and a higher redline than the stock ecu/rtek are capable of.
I went w/ the 32bit 125rpm pt dual map/datalogging capable wold 3d v500. Stock ecu is only 8bit, its like a nintendo vs playstation.
