Evolve alternatives

I purchased the evolve switch but too bad for me the switch cannot read from my car, (ecu not supported or something) so there is no way to install the map unless is done locally and thats out of the question.

So what other alternatives do i have that wll offer me the same QUALITY as evolve's ecu map?

Tunit's diesel box of tricks is the best bet for you.

well it seems odd since is a 07 model. you can search for DTUK, DMS in the sticky section bluefin and many others that have similar products. What happened with the switch? Are you sending it back?
