Manic Motorsports tuning now available @ EuroTechs

EuroTechs is now offering Manic Motorsports Tuning from our location in Tempe Arizona.

Manic Motorsports USA will be updated with latest info from various Manic dealers around the United states if you want to stay up to date.

The FAQ's

1. What are maps?
Maps are the "tune". They typically vary by target boost level and octane to be used. You will have 3 performance maps plus the stock map. With the SPS switch (optional) you can switch between these 3 maps and stock.

2. How are the maps loaded?
Maps can only be loaded by a Manic dealer. There will be no user end flashing of Manic software. You can bring the vehicle or ship the ECU to Manic dealer to have the maps installed.

3. Who makes the maps/tunes?
All map/tunes are created by Nick of Manic Motorsports. As dealers we just distribute and install the files into your car.

4. If the dealer removes my tune will I have to buy it again?
Manic Motorsports will not charge you for the files again but a Manic dealer may charge you install fee(varies dealer to dealer).Manic actually provides the latest known stock software level to help prevent the dealer from over write situations.

5. Can I run a catless down pipe without check engine light?
Yes if you are flashed with map designed for catless downpipe it will prevent the light from coming on as long as you are in a performance map. If you switch back to stock mode your vehicle will operate as stock and trigger light.

If we missed any questions you have let us know and we will continue to update

We can bench flash if ship your ecu in. It's actually a longer process than one would think. Nick at manic actually builds all tunes via email based on each customers requests. On the N18 it's actually 3 flashes at 35 minutes each to get the switchable maps installed. Once you have the files from Nick who's still in the UK. In some cases they don't have that particular ecu unlocked and requires opening ecu for manual boot download which takes 2 hours. Then Nick can build your map. In other words it's not always as fast as you would think. We have limited time windows of communication due to time differences.

This is really good info and I don't think it was mentioned in the main post for Manic. I'm going to add it there.

FMIC + PANEL FILTER
FMIC + CAI
FMIC + CAI + CBE
Stage 2 $550
DP + FMIC
DP + FMIC + CAI

Manic has also started upgrade program so if you start off at lower level you can pay an upgrade fee to move up. If you start at stage 1 and upgrade to 2 it would only cost $50 for reflashing.

not sure but MK checked my ecu and per manic, T800B is not out yet. They need a boot read. I hope someone do it now so i can get mines done.

This update was because the dealership updated my brake wear sensor 2 weeks ago.

What's the worry about opening the ECU. If done correctly it's undetectable. We have a T800B on the books for a read out so your file might be ready sooner than later.

That's great news!!!

No worries actually. It's just that I only have 1 car which is the Mini. I can't have my ecu opened up to boot, get the files sent to the UK, wait for their reply (8hrs difference) then have it flashed the same day if they have it available and at that time they didn't

Good news is I am now stage II ready. I was hoping to get it done the same day when i had the DP and FMIC installed
