This week I have my MPS 6 prepared with a HPFP with upgraded internals, the Corksport Short Ram Intake (2.5" i believe), the Corksport TMIC and a custom downpipe with sportcat.
Because of this I bought Versatune (lite) yesterday. Does anyone have a descent TUNE I can use for this setup? I do not want the max out of my car; I use it as a daily driver; but some (30 hp?) extra would be awesome .
Just use the high load tune, it will add quite a bit of power. Do not worry, you will not max out the car until you use a pretty big turbo.
Because you are using the Lite version you can only use the OTS tunes or the tunes created by Versatuner-approved professional tuners.

Hi! Thanks. Is that the best option? Because it says for stock DP?
I was looking at the Base 93US_98EU Octane with High Flow Down Pipe; or shouldn't I use that because of the sportcat I have?
You will be fine with the high load as well as with the base for high flow DP. The later will give you a bit less power/torque (less boost and less timing). Since you have pump internals either are fine for your setup though.

The downpipe hasn't been installed yet, but I drove a little bit and LOVE the better turbo sound with the SRI from Corksport .
Looking to putting the tune on the car. I made an export of some stats that I think are usefull. Does it look ok as it is? (before putting on the new tune), or should I check some other graphs before doing it?
The log you took will not reveal anything about the health status of the car/engine. It can be barely used to a MAF calibration and that;s about it. But usually if it feels good it is indeed good.
To be honest I have no idea what are you waiting for to put on the new tune

In the meanwhile after running the tune for about 2 weeks:
- Got a yellow light after about 100km which had to do with a stuck thermostat
- After that got a yellow light about a exhaust flow not good enough (Google pointed me towards an unclean EGR). So I cleaned the EGR, but light still there.
Now switched my tune from the stock DP tune to the high flow DP tune (which I have!) and so far so good...

Not tuning related. However depending on the actual error code you may need to look into a few things: if you got a cel from a stock closed thermostat then engine is most likely hurt even if it doesn't look like so, if it was from a stuck open then you're good.

What's the actual code?

Maybe the previous code was a one-time thing and it cleared when you reflashed the tune. These errors don't just go away from tune to tune because of the actual tune, they have different causes. So you may have different latent issues going on with your car.

The thermostat was open and with a new one, it was good .
The code I am getting now (or at least; yesterday before other tune) is: P0401 flow insufficient. I don't have a block plate and cleaned up my EGR yesterday.
