The ECU parameters cannot be changed unless you move to something like a Nistune or start burning roms etc. If you just want it to be setup ok as far as timing and making sure its ok, anyone can do that.

Go see the boys at Jaustech, they'll be able to put a Nistune board in your ECU and tune it for you. Top service down there.

Jaustech tunes are alright and very safe... They said if I didn't know a certain couple of people it would of been an easy $1500 for a complete tune from scratch, they only charged me half that. Kind of meh.. though because I only asked for a touch up on the morpowa tune that was already in the ecu and 3 more psi.. I didn't get a call asking if I wanted a full retune, they just went ahead with it... You wouldn't be too happy if you only had the cash for a touch up and when you get there they're asking for $1500 or some sh1t lol... The first time I gave it full throttle in the hills a mate that was behind me had to slam on the brakes because he was in a thick cloud of black smoke.. i'm suprised people from surrounding suburbs didn't ring 000 and report bushfires Lol.. I found Horsepower in a box good, morrie did a complete retune on a couple of mates cars and charged $300 all up... He busted his chops and stayed there untill 2am with us aswell. They are a pretty mint tunes and wasn't any leaner than 12.0.
