Then get a tune that makes the ecu run without all the deleted stuff. If this is the case, that is great news. If not, how are folks getting around tricking the ECU. Thanks in advance.

Correct you can just simply tune it out and then unplug/remove whatever you want and its as if the car was made without it no problems.

I went with the malone tune bought their flashzilla programer and its super nice to just read your ECU file upload it and then boom they create a tune for the car and you just simply flash it to your cars ECU. I did not want to have to pull my ECU and mail it off to get tuned then wait for it to come back. Plus can flash back to stock file anytime you wish and turn on and off options that you orderd. Its prett nice. That being said it is a stock tune so not custom persay to your uinque vehicle. For me though this was good enough and I am finding the performance to be spectacular.
Next level would be obviously taking the car in and having it on a dyno and having a tuner custom map it for my area and the car itself.

The trunk latch clicked open, and I was impressed.

Why not just unlock the door with the key and power up the car through the accessory power jack and then open the trunk that way? Or open the hood and put power to the postive post and the frame and power the car up that way?
