Default CEL code deletion or full tune

Hello

Plug: STechnic thanks for assisting with info code check.


I have a Stock MY05/06 Foz XT and CEL code due to Air pump 2 being stuffed I have two options to resolve.

I am not going to replace pump as it does nothing worthwhile (apologies to greenies) car goes fine, but CEL light remains on and I dont have cruise control.

Option 1: ECU crack and codes deleted $600, problem gone.

Option 2: ECU crack and tune $1000, problem gone plus extras on software gains.

Car is stock and likely to stay that way only has 53k mileage.
Any tuning would need to go back to tuners not my normal mechanics and a road trip to get there from South to North. or indecisive call it what you want, I have never been a hard core modder or tuner as WRX or XT's are quick enough for me stock.

I will not be replacing part for $2500 or going with the other $1500 ECU crack and tune option. Can ya tell im on a budget? Attempting to justify extra $400 maybe....

No names required as I am sure you all know the above mechanics, well you know where i'm going due thread this is posted in.

Thank in advance.
