KulG35: ok. now i know what they are asking for.. there are several different types of ECUs that they have programs for. They are requesting you to call the dealer to see which version ECU you have, so to cross-reference their database to see if they have the program for your specific trim/option/model G you have. this is standard operating procedure.. IF they don't have your program for your G, (depending on how new it is) then it may take longer, since they will have to send the ecu to japan to download the software phsyically off the computer..
hope that clarifies it..
a simple call to the dealer with your VIN will clarify it with technosquare.. thanks

Kul if they don't have the program for your ECU, then they can't tune it. They'll send your ECU to Japan to the Nissan Engineers over there probably for them to open the ecu, scan it and create a program flash for it and send it back. Once the program is released, you can now tune it, and who ever in the future that has the similar ecu in their car could get it tuned right away also. So you could either just wait it out until it's all released, or just have them do it and have a week or 2 down time of the car for the process.

FYI:
for the Q/A session, please bring some questions you've had about anything of the following:
Engine Tuning: what really happens to AFR when you put in HFC vs Test pipes? Why do some intakes work better than others?
Engine Building: A vs H rod constuction. What size injectors are needed for my build? etc
Fabrication: What techniques do you do to ensure safety in a roll cage? bolt in vs weld in?
Also, i've lined up two pro Racers to answer any G/Z related driving questions. One for road course (Billy Johnson, M-Workz 350z Driver) and one for Drift (Taka Aono, AE86 driftpro car). They can answer any problems you're having with suspension setups or particular quirks about the car.

it's actually a great deal - when I had it I paid $500 or $600 (cant remember exactly, but it was not less than 500 thats for sure... that was a few yrs ago though).

You got the Fspec flash? I tried searching for more info on it, but no luck. You think its worth it?

Performance-wise they are comparable – I didn’t really notice any difference when going from one to the other (in standard performance map)… I was very pleased with the TS F-Flash and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend as a viable option especially at the price listed here…

had, yes... I ended up getting Osiris - initially just because I was curious if there were any gains to made over TS - but also, I kinda like the versatility of multiple maps - plus I have cams and like the flexibility of cam timing…

Vstypicals:
for your Intake Spacer Test pipes and ypipe. i think the Fspec is good enough.
For the Dyno ECU Tune, do it if you wanted to know the power you're putting down.. plus if you think about it.. its only a couple bucks more to get a custom tune to your car. might squeeze a little more power out of it vs the regular Fspec... were you planning on adding more mods later?
If you have Cams now or thinking about it later (or other hi power mods like plenum changes or fuel rails), then custom tuning on the dyno is more recommended..

Maybe I'll stop by since it'll be on the way heading to Irvine.
