Cold starts a lot better and pulls better from low down. Rev limiter is now 7.5k

Its a generic map thats been developed by this guy and he can tweak it to suit the mods you have for example inlets, full exhaust and cams if you are running them.

Its not a miracle map or as noticable as if you map a turbo car its quite subtle and just makes the car more "drivable" Where as mine would pull all the way to the limiter and ideally could pull longer it now has that option should I take it that far.

The only draw back is you have to run it on 98 Ron

Gavin got quite a bit planned but can't be assed with a project thread atm

You HAVE to run it on 98? Ive been trying to use 98 ron where I can as it recommends it on the petrol cap

It starts better from cold? Mine is crap form cold, throttle feels really off and on, then fine when its warmed up. Apparently thats just how they are though.

Well you can put 95 in the knock sensor will just ajust everything but to get the most out of it you do ned to run it on 98 when tesco 99 is the only juice over 97 ron.

Yeah sorts the dodgy idle from cold but they are all like that from cold and the limiter is lowered untill warm.

Can't wait for my Exhausts and other bits and bobs to turn up now

Gavin its nothing major just did it to see if it made a difference but I was dubious when Warren told me to drop it down to thrid from 90 ....kinda like pay back

It will be getting adjusted before the ring (I just cant deal with James having more than me )

Its quite sad I choose my petrol station to coincide with my Necta points

Are you not supposed to grow out of this?

Are we going to have a pep chat with Mr Butler about covoy etiquette
