    Just an EDC16, nothing special, but trying to reduce the chances of bricking it.
    This is the cheapest way to flash his car, to get a tuner in is more expensive for him.

    His local tuner wants £100 just to flash my file, it's cheaper to buy a tool

    1. the device is only for reading and overwriting the file in the KESS / KTAG RED EU ecu


    2. Some professional that makes you a good tuning without checksum error


    Those 2 items you should consider, sometimes saving money is playing with fire.

    The difference is if the tuner brick your ECU he should repaire it and if some thing happen, he should solve your probleme.
    If you do it you can succes or not and if not you can stop you car running for weeks
