The flux is basically a data recorder and display, "The programming of the Tire Size correction will only be valid once you pare your Unichip, Vehicle, and Flux adapter. To be specific, the Unichip nor Flux Power Display Software does not alter the speedo on any vehicle. However, what the Flux software allows the user to do is show visually on their PDA a corrected speedo value. As for the ability to tune, there are no features within the software to allow for end-user tuning. The Flux Power Display Software is designed for capturing performance data – RPM, speed, lap times, etc. "

I chose to go without FLux because I was just wanting it to adjust my speedo...not too concerned with seeing and recording rpm, speed, and the like.Just throwing out what I was told and my decision. I have GPS in my radio anyway if I wanna know my actual speed, acceleration g's, lateral g's, and skid.

The Flux also has the ability to hold five maps versus just two with the basic unit. Flux currently does not allow end user tuning, but I was told that it is in the works. If you think about it, with Flux, you have the ability to download maps from Unichip and upload to Flux and then download to your tuner. All it would take is for an update to the Flux software that allows end user tuning on a PC. There are certain features built into Flux that aren't accessible yet, just waiting for software to be developed.
