Open Source E-Tuning
With Open Source E-Tuning, more is required from the customer than E-Tuning with an Accessport. You MUST have a laptop and be able to install the Open Source programs Romraider – for logging and ECU Flash – for downloading and flashing tunes to your vehicle’s ECU. We will provide all the download links and detailed instructions on how to download the programs. Romraider is a free open source program created by enthusiasts like you. The installation process of Romraider is more involved than commercial programs but nothing most people can’t accomplish.
You will also need a wideband AFR gauge like AEM or Innovate. The gauge will need to be wired to the ECU or use a serial adapter to log with Romraider.
Features included for most years:
- Map Switching for Non SI drive Cars: You can have 2 boost targets for pump gas and 2 boost targets for ethanol. Quickly switch between maps with cruise control.
- Boost By Gear: All MT tunes have boost by gear. This helps your car hit close to boost target in all gears
- High Gear Over-Boost Protection: We employ over-boost protection for 5th & 6th gear in 6speeds and 4th & 5th gear in 5speed, to limit boost below defined rpms. An example is if someone goes WOT in too high a gear at too low an rpm, boost is limited to wastegate pressure to keep engine loads low and reduce the risk of engine damage.
- Launch control / Flat Foot Shift: Available for most years
- Speed Density: Available for most years

Scott Weir –
As a senior master technician at a dealership, I’ve always wanted to build my first personal Subaru. My goal was to make it a drag racer, so I started with an 09 FXT. However, I was told by three major tuners that it wouldn’t be possible to tune it due to the automatic transmission. After countless hours of scrolling and researching, I knew there had to be a solution.
That’s when I found Devin at JM Automotive.
If I could give him 10 stars, I would. His diagnostic skills are even better than mine, and he was more than willing to chat with me, helping me take my dealership knowledge and apply it to the aftermarket world. His quick email responses with detailed answers were just the beginning of his help. He also helped me fix my spare “bricked” ECM, work on a custom automatic 2-step, and set up low and high boost map switching. The support seemed endless.
If you’re looking for help with a unique build or just want to talk to a knowledgeable and friendly tuner, your search ends here.

Devin came through with not just a great flex tune but also helped me through the whole process of getting my laptop and logging setup and providing some troubleshooting along the way. I have had this tune for over a year now and have had no issues, even running e85 through the winter in northern Indiana. Devin is a pro and you can trust him with your investment.
