Default Blufin... Question.

Right I get the basics, you plug it into the Diagnostic port, it communicates with the ECu, removes the parimetors(sp) set by the factory and replaces them with a new set that enhances the performance. All well and good.

But the bit that puzzels me is, thats ok for a 'standard' car, but what if the car has mechanical mods prior to being 'fin'd' ie on a N/A car, filter, Exhaust, cams etc? or Vica versa if the 'fin'd' car is moded afterwards. With conventional 'chiping' those things are taken into consideration are they not? again the same goes for live mapping.

So I suppose my question is is blufin any good for a modded car?

** Sorry if i'm being a bit vauge, I know what I mean **
