Not relating specifically to FTOs as such.
Can you have two tunes in an aftermarket ECU, one for economy, one for performance. Can they be changed while driving?

Yeah I thought you could but do you need to turn your car off each time?

The haltech is the same, you can have two maps loaded on the ecu and change over any time.

Me too. Press a button and go from 5lbs of boost to 9 lbs and can do it on the fly.

ems stinger also has this ability.
meanwhile, also a setting called throttle control which includes no extra work of the ecu...
