I looked through the forums and didn't find a chart, but i'm running V2.5 93oct with boost pill. I was just wondering if the V2.5 with 93oct would have better dyno numbers then the one posted of 91oct V1. Thanks

Just a guess but it only makes sense that the higher octane would dyno higher.

haha yea I knew that, I was wondering if it was a noticeable difference. I would rather run 91oct with 93oct being almost $4.30.

Any more feedback on the BETA maps?

My latest thoughts...

- I'm getting used to the firmer, faster shifting in NORMAL/MANUAL mode. It's tighter than before, so I am now driving everywhere in NORMAL mode instead of SPORT.

- My (entirely personal) preference would be for a very slightly less abrupt shift in NORMAL mode than the BETA's feel. As it stands now, even the softer NORMAL mode is quite punchy. It's TC-SST pour hommes, which is great - until you have to drive someone around who wants or needs a very smooth ride. I do realise that you can't please everyone. I'm not pining for the overly soft NORMAL mode in v2.5 though - not at all.

- Throttle feel is excellent. It does what it should, reacts the way I expect. Less "rubbery" throttle response now.

- SPORT/AUTO mode is good fun, but I couldn't test much of it - too high revs for long-term cruising. But worked well in small bursts.

- NORMAL/AUTO is the most useless option in the car. Even more useless than the Bluetooth's "Would you like to change the language to German?"!

- There's the downshift "hang" that I mentioned before. But it's not really a big issue, as it only delays the downshift if you're holding steady light throttle... and if you're doing that, you've got the time to wait. Throttling up or down wakes it up from its pregnant pause! I should flash an older ROM and see if I can reproduce it then.


That's about all I can think of. Ta very much for sharing your personal vehicle's settings...

I felt it downshifted from 6 to 5 at 70kph for no reaso in normal auto.

richardjh

Did it stay in 5th at 70km/h, after that downshift?

If so, I want your transmission.

I swapped over the lower bound table last night gonna see how the shifts feel now at 1/2 throttle... with the old hybrid table i was running there was a tiny bit of tugging on the 1/2 throttle in boost shifts.

I'm gonna try to stay in normal auto mode today and log all my driving see if can catch any funky shifts (every now and then it seems like it skip shifts when shifting up like goes from 2nd to 4th but it could just be banging through them quicker than i can look down).

Dead pedal on corner exit is much reduced based on todays thrashing

Sorry Bryan, I haven't had an opportunity to flash the Beta over to my car yet. I will do it this evening and let you know tomorrow at some point what feedback I have.

Logged 2011 USDM Ralliart v2.6 93 Octane + Boost pill upgrade for fun at drag strip. Computer died @ track so I couldn't log AFR.

Also, Sports mode is hella sexy now with shifts. However, as mentioned by others, Normal/Auto and Normal/Manual shift a little too hard for daily driving. I know the goal is to prevent slippage, but a nice medium between v2.5 and v2.6 would probably be perfect.

gloom

Why would you want that when just cruising? Normal is for eco driving. Atleast to me. Noone else here seem to care about that though
And it stayed in fifth until I stepped off the throttle completely and it shifted to sixth again.
