Default Tuning?

Hey guys, well im currently running an F22c in an AP1 with an AP1 ecu. I have an AEM CAI, and a Berk TP, headers most likely coming soon. I want to have my car tuned but im not ready to replace my ECU, I was looking into flashpro but apparently its incompatible with my ecu. What other options are available? am i just stuck until i can save up enough money for a K-Pro or AEM standalone?

also if there are other options and i can have a tune done, does anyone know a reputable tuner?

thanks guys i appreciate your time.

Why not just replace your ECU with an AP2 one?
I have seen them here used for much less then a flashpro and a tune.

the point of the tune would be to try and maximize the intake and soon to be headers and exhaust.

Yes, and it would be a lot more complicated that getting just the ECU. You would have to do the complete DBW conversion.

If you are staying NA then something like a Greddy Emanage should get the job done. It would get you a nice AFR and be able to lower VTEC to give you a better powerband. I think you can find them with a plug n play harness for under $500. I would recommend UMS Tuning.

Thanks for the help man, this looks like just what I've been searching for. Good price for it too, since its about 150 off of evasive's price.
