Autronic
Autronic is a stand alone unit and replaces your factory ECU, considerable gains in power across the complete RPM range can be achieved with these boards. Replacement ECU boards are available for most WRX’s.

Cobb
We are an authorized dealer and tuner of Cobb AccessPORTS. In order to have your car tuned with Cobb, you will have to purchase an AccessPORT, a small handheld device used to load programs to the ECU. In addition to tuning abilities the AccessPORTs also have numerous other features such as a 0-60 calculator, it can read trouble codes, displays live engine data, etc. Click here to purchase your Cobb AccessPORT.

The AccessPORTs feature off the shelf maps, however with a custom tune from Verocious we can normally get another 20 – 25 wheel horsepower over what the Cobb base map will put out. In addition, we can create multiple maps for you that you can store on your AccessPORT and upload at your leisure such as a map for race gas vs. a map for pump gas.

ECUFlash/Enginuity
Both ECUFlash and Enginuity are open source tools, which means there are no licensing fees or hardware to buy. The benefit of this type of tune is obviously the cost savings of not having to purchase anything additional. However, the downside is since ECUFlash and Enginuity were created by enthusiasts and not by a company, there really is no backing for this software except for the community of users. If there were to be any type of programming failure there is no way to recover the ECU. With EcuTek and Cobb, or any of the other “official” tuning software or devices, there is almost always factory support in case of an unforeseen problem.

EcuTek
When it comes to having your Subaru tuned with EcuTek you have two options. The first option would be to have your ECU reflashed with a custom tune from us. In order to reflash your ECU there will be a one-time licensing fee for the EcuTek software if you do not already own it, in addition to our regular tuning rates. We can flash your ECU with a custom tune or return it to stock settings.

Your second option from EcuTek is a package called EasyECU. With the EasyECU package you will have the ability to switch between maps that we create for you. You will also get Delta Dash, which is one of the best data logging softwares out for Subaru’s. The EasyECU kit includes a USB to OBD cable and the software disk. The kit is available with or without an EcuTek license, which gives you the freedom to start with the EasyECU package out of the gate, or start with the EcuTek reflash and upgrade to the EasyECU package later.

Hydra
Hydra is a complete stand alone plug and play system, which means it replaces your factory ECU. You would need to purchase the Hydra unit, and have it installed. Once the unit is installed, tuning the Hydra system would be subject to our standard tuning rates. Hydra is best suited for those with wheel horsepower goals of 450+.

Utec/Delta
Utec and Delta are parallel engine management systems that are installed in tandem with your stock ECU. Once the unit is purchased and installed, tuning this system would be subject to our standard tuning rates. The Utec/Delta system is complex piece of equipment. It acts as a standalone and a piggyback all in one. Both the Utec and Delta have some great features such as, the ability to switch maps on the fly via cabin mounted switch, you also have the ability to activate launch control and flat foot shifting for drag racing. They also feature several auxillary outputs that can be used for things like nitrous activation or alcohol/water injections. The most unique feature though, is the ability to switch to Speed Density Load Referencing.

Normally Subaru’s utilize Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensors. MAF sensors are mounted inline before the turbo and physically meter the amount of air going into the engine. This in turn effects how the ignition and fuel values are calculated by the ECU. For most applications MAF would be the preferred “sensing” to go with. However, MAF’s have restrictions. The stock 60mm MAF sensor can only safely support 310 whp on a WRX, and 340 whp on a STi. Upgrading to a larger 75mm MAF sensor would boost those numbers to 430 whp for a WRX and 450 whp in a STi.

Once you exceed 500+ whp, you must switch to Speed Density Load Referencing. By switching to Speed Density (SD) the MAF sensor is eliminated and replaced with a larger Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor and Air Intake Temperature sensor, by installing these items you are removing any horsepower restrictions created by the MAF sensor. With this modification load referencing is now based off of manifold pressure and charge air temperature. Driveability is usually not as good with Speed Density compared to MAF based tuning, but when the MAF sensor becomes a horsepower restriction there is no choice but to move to speed density. In Speed Density mode, you no longer measure the amount of air entering the motor, instead pressure rating and temperature are used to control fuel needs.
