Just putting my feelers out on remote tuning.
If you offer remote tuning for your customers, what service do you use?
I've been looking into this for a little while now, but I'm not interested to spend a ton of money every month for something that I won't use all the time. What are your ideas/experiences?

The 034Motorsport ECU882C (and hopefully soon Redline and others) Tuning application supports tuning over IP without using a third party tool (such as PC anywhere ETC).
Often the user is behind a firewall so you do often have to deal with a VPN password or similar, but the responsiveness and timeliness of the remote data is quite good. |

I do quite a bit of this. I use www.teamviewer.com. FAST and some of the others I use also have this built into the system too but using a third party I can set up com ports or USB drivers... that saves me time explaining some things that I can do myself.

I offer remote tuning to my customers, been working out great. I enjoy it. Its nice to be able to just 'tune' them.
I'd say in time my monthly shop expenses will be covered by remote tuning revenue.

That's pretty expensive isn't it?

I presume that is flash tuning or is it possibly to do even real time dyno tuning?
Or lag in data input is to big?

It is free. You can pay for a commercial copy and it's worth it.

Most of my remote tuning is flash based. It really takes a good customer to pull it off.
Currently I have never done any real time remote dyno tuning but that's next
