Good Luck at the track. We didn't tune it on the dyno, but we did give it a driveability and road tune. I would love to get your car on the dyno and get a real chance at making some solid numbers. The AMS guys said they were rather pressed on time with the vehicle so we did the best we could.

Thanks,

That's what the base maps on the website are.

Guys,

Tuning Tip- I have found that using a 6 in the MAF Minimum for Mapping Paramter works rather nicely for tuning driveability.

What is the advantage of open loop fueling? Is this good if you have a upgrade 660cc Injectors compared to the closed loop?

I'm realy confused.

The advantage of open loop fuelling is that you don't have the stock ecu in the loop controlling your base afr. Anyone that has tune a evo has noticed that when you tune a car it can sway 1/2 an afr point.

It makes tuning a far easier task when you know that you tune the car for a 11.8 afr it will stay relatively close to that and not sway.

Also the open loop fuelling feature allows us to have full control of rev limit and allows you to use injector scaling. Using Injector Scaling will make a global afr correction reducing the time needed to tune for larger injectors

This software makes the Evo Utec a even more powerful tuning tool.

Thanks,

Wow.. Today I actually don't have too much to add.. Must be this headache..

I may take a trip down to TurboXS at some point in the near future, I'd like to spend some time with you guys, maybe build a few maps for the current mods I have. But I also have a few product Ideas and possibly a prototype or two.

That's sweet. So let me clearify up some questions that I have.

With the new firmware, all I have to do is download it and update the utec. From what I read, the new firmware will throw the current map that you have off. Correct? Ok, after you updated the new firmware to utec, you have to download the new map for the updated version?

Thank you malibujack for creating this thread and TurboXS for making an awesome tuning tool for the average blow Joe like me.

tps threshold

are any of you guys having the problem in the special constants on the tps threshold where it wont take any value above 30,,,,,it starts with the 35 but if you try to change it , it wont take the 35 any more......i like my threshold at 60 percent or so....

With open loop fuelling enabled the OLF Parameter crossover threshold overrides the Special Constants Parameter. That's why you can't change the value.

Masterevo- YES!

Is it safe to run your stage2 map with open loop fueling, if I have no wideband O2? I saw in another thread that you targeted 11.1 AFR, that's fine with me. But I'm wondering how much different mods will affect the AFR's when using open loop fueling. I only have exhaust, no modified intake, cams, etc. And your previous stage 1 map seemed REALLY lean on my car. So if I run your stage2 map with open loop fueling, should I end up pretty close to 11.1, or would it still be a crapshoot?

Oh, and it's extremely cool that you guys did some work smoothing the ECU-UTEC timing transitions. That's the only thing I really didn't like about the UTEC. Can't wait to try out the new firmware.

You really should not use any old maps with the new software. I cannot reiterate enough. It really should sway that much because we calculate the Air to Fuel Ratio. Interesting how it work. We count the air and we inject the fuel. Previous maps were lean on your car because of the way the stock ecu can switch map it's base map and screw up a good tune.

So if you run the open fuelling map you should be very close to 11.1.

Thanks,
