Re: UK member
You need to remember that once a flash has been done, you need to drive the car steady for a good few miles to allow the ECU to adjust to the new settings.
The car won't feel its best until you have done this, I think 20/30miles of mixed driving is req'd before the ecu is happy again.
When I first flashed my high load map, I thought the car was a little jerky, slightly rough and didn't feel the extra power I was expecting. About 20miles later the car was feeling much better, all smooth again and more powerful. Sounds weird, but its true!

Re: UK member

Re: UK member
No knock retard at all which is good. Boost is spiking a bit at gear change. What about desired lambda and fuel pressure?

Re: UK member
Just copy the BCS base and BCS load correction table into your tune from the grimspeed one. You will then have to do a few runs to get it dialled in. I take it you're in 3 port mode?

Re: UK member
Dougie, I'm fitting my grimmspeed today and wondered how exactly you go about copying the BCS table to my existing High Load tune? If in doubt I'll get it fitted then flash the complete base tune for High Load & EBC Interrupt, is this right?Dougie6488 wrote:yeah will be running in 3 port mode.

You can open multiple tunes simultaneously and cut and paste between.
