Is it safe to drive around on the Base map for a bit before I do the fuel learning session. Just supercharged and don't have time this week to do a proper session.

[The Batman]

Yes

[phippsy]

Yes

Cheers Joe, probably start getting sorted over the weekend

[Captain Vimes]

If you get 10 mins, just go out for a drive and log it. Do a few full throttle runs and save the session. When you get time you can then check the log to see if anything nasty s happening (knock, afr etc).

I have joined the dutch brigade, looking forward to getting started!

Hopefully get a little time after work tomorrow to have a play with the software. Thinking about making up a cradle to hold my laptop while I drive. Anyone done this? Pics?

I read the 5 first and the 5 last pages and could not find the info, sorry because i reckon it have been asked to death.

How does it work, i guess i have to send the ECU?

Time/cost?

Dutch is a complete new software for your ecu, you send the ECU to Peter, it costs around 800 euros and takes around a week due to shipping

Ah super, Just need to find 800 somewhere then

[smiley]

875

[ChrisNo/Swe]

875

10 minutes - 75 Euro, i better hurry.

 

It's bloody expensive isn't it?

Is it worth it? I have 2.2 SC uprated cams, it sounds rich and Idle is not even, very poor throttle response in low revs and especially when cold so the ECU needs a check anyhow

[ChrisNo/Swe]

"bloody expensive" was a bit harsh, what i mean is, it's a lot of money for firmware.

You could enquire about alternatives.

 

- Get a basemap from Courtenay UK, then haul over the car there for final mapping, as their basemap only goes to 5k - Bring it to Hitec Germany.

- Bring it to Klasen Germany.

- Get a stand alone ecu and get that mapped.

 

Not sure if these will be cheaper.

 

[ChrisNo/Swe]

Not sure if these will be cheaper.

Probably not, and it's possibly a more enjoyable way of doing it seeing that you can keep on modifying it.

When obdtuner was released in the UK, the biggest complaint was price. Now 3 years later i think 90% has switched from courtenay map to obdtuner. The software must be doing something right.

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

The biggest pull to obdtuner for me was being able to control things your self and not rely on a third party.

but it has probably encouraged me to tune to the level i am currently, as it only required hardware and a bit of time and effort

Exchange rate is a bit of a sh*t right now for us brits. Looking at just shy of £800
