PLEASE EMAIL TUNING@SONICTUNED.COM FROM THE EMAIL ACCOUNT YOU USED IN STEP 3 WITH THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
**********PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS STEP. A BASEMAP WILL NOT BE SENT UNTIL ALL THREE QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED. ANY CHANGES MADE AFTER THE BASEMAP IS SENT WILL REQUIRE A RETUNE AND A FEE. NO EXCEPTIONS!!**********
WHAT IS YOUR ORDER NUMBER?
IS YOUR Q50/Q60 AWD OR RWD? (LEAVE BLANK FOR THE Z)
WHAT IS THE OCTANE OF THE BASE FUEL YOU WILL BE USING? (91 or 93 OCTANE)
LIST ALL OF YOUR MODIFICATIONS FOR WHICH THE TUNE IS BEING MADE. Any special map requests will also need to be made at this time. If they can be done, they will be. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU ARE VERY DETAILED WITH EXACTLY WHICH PARTS YOU HAVE ON YOUR VEHICLE. DRAG RADIALS/SLICKS ON A RWD CAR IS A MOD!!!!! You will be charged a $250 retune fee if this parts list is incorrect and a new BASEMAP needs to be made. There are no exceptions!
IS YOUR Z A 6-SPEED OR AUTOMATIC? (LEAVE BLANK FOR THE Q50/Q60)
RACE WAIVER REQUEST: IF YOU PLAN ON RACING YOUR CAR AND/OR TRYING TO SET RECORDS, YOU CAN NOW REQUEST TO SIGN A RACE WAIVER WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR A VERY AGGRESSIVE TUNE. THIS IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR DAILY DRIVERS OR LIGHTLY MODDED CARS. THIS IS INTENDED TO FOCUS MORE ON RACING AND ATTEMPTED RECORD SETTING VS RELIABILITY. ONCE THIS WAIVER IS SIGNED, ALL OF THE NORMAL LIMITS SET BY SONICTUNED LLC CAN BE REMOVED. IF YOU'D LIKE THIS WAIVER, PLEASE REQUEST IT NOW AS ONCE TUNING BEGINS, THERE WILL BE A RETUNE FEE TO SWITCH TO A RACE MAP DUE TO THE NEED FOR A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BASEMAP.
ONCE THAT IS DONE, YOUR CUSTOM BASEMAP WILL BE BUILT BASED ON THE THREE THINGS MENTIONED ABOVE WITHIN A FEW BUSINESS DAYS. ONCE THE BASEMAP IS SENT, YOU HAVE 30 DAYS TO COMPLETE THE PROCESS! PLEASE BE PATIENT!!! ONCE YOU RECEIVE YOUR BASEMAP, YOU WILL PROCEED TO STEP 2 OF THE SETUP PROCESS FOUND HERE: CLICK HERE
*PLEASE NOTE* Every ECU has a unique digital part number that is used to make each custom BASEMAP. There is a possibility that your ECU has not been entered into ECUTEK's system yet. If that is the case, you will receive a notification once you select "Send vehicle info to tuner" stating that your ROM DUMP has been sent to ECUTEK. This happens often and if you receive the message, the tuning process may take up to an additional 5 business days while ECUTEK adds your specific part number to the system. Once it has been added, you will receive an email stating this has been completed and your ECU will then be ready to calibrate.
