  In this article, we are introducing different ECU tuning tools for you. Check out their difference. 1. Alitentech Kess V3 Kess3 is from Alientech, it's an Italian company. They were doing Kess and Ktag. They have combined both tools and made it Kess3 with OBD/ Bench/ Boot mode. They are experts and manufacture ECU titanium the remapping software. 2.Flex Flex is from Magicsport company from Italy. It supports Bench and OBD. Coverage is massive and it has master/ salve version. 3.KT200 The new generation of KTM flashes. It is upgraded model of Gelito, and some say it is the Clone device for Atlantic. 4. PCMtuner Like KTM supporting 32 modules, it supports 67 modules. 200 Bosch ECU read and write protocols without opening the cover. Added 490 new protocols. It's very good for Japanese and Korean cars. 5. FC200 It is made by CGDI company. I can feel it is a clone from Flex but the clone more in Bosch controllers. So, if you work on BMW, this is the best tool for you because it i...

Alitentech Kess3, FLEX, Autotuner: Which is Better?

图片
  In this article, we are going to compare 3 main ECU programming tools: Alitentech Kess3 , FLEX, and Autotuner. Check out their pros and cons. 1.FLEX Start from Flex. The Magicmotorsport tool is separated into two, we have the interface to connect via OBD. The main advantage is that for people who know virtual reading Flex can update vehicle to another version of software when they don't find a virtual file. And it is capable of reproducing it, that is, we can access the vehicle even if the server doesn't have that virtual reading. Regarding Flex, it has some special motor units. All three are expensive tools. They all are with a case, everything, cables in it, but Flex in the brief cardboard box. 2. Kess3 The great advantage of Kess is the coverage while Flex and Autotuner support new vehicles. All 3 support new vehicles, but in terms of older vehicles of 10 to 12 years only Kess supports. Another advantage of Kess is that it has a GPS accelerometer, etc. In the future, ...
