O ur on motronic?

nope. VEMS. I assumed Hank meant something that could swap a tune without having to pull out a laptop and connect up and do the swap. perhaps Hank thought I was Motronic....

Pick up your phone, kid

I'm pretty sure it's as simple as a switch which either sends ground or +v to the ecu via an aux in (or whatever on that 6 pin connector) and that will signal a map switch.

It's pretty much just that simple. If you have a switch for your launch control, it can also do map switching ( not at the same time )
But its darn easy.

so can you have a tune and a staged tune both stored in VEMS at the same time? did not know that. nice.

Just the flip of a switch and you're on an e85 tune, or pump gas, or high boost, or mega timing, or whatever you want.

Yep. This is how we will setup dad's w/m injection with the AEM failsafe system. It sends a ground signal if it sees too much or too little flow. Then map switch and you're still okay to drive without being too concerned!

yeah Dan, VEMS has built in map-select.

What Hank was talking about though is we are looking at doing a dual-map e85 and pump gas tune set for stock motronic as well.

My bad, I thought you were Motronic still. On Vems, it is cake. Just gotta have two maps and a map select. Marc can set this up very easily. Hello 400wtq..

no worries.. all makes sense now.

Dan, what injectors and pump are you running?

60# and 044. Adjustable FPR set at 3bar

is 3bar stock for an AAN

Why'd you bump it down to 3 on the FPR?

When Marc installed VEMS he had me set it at 3. Dont remember the exact reason.

I dont recall that conversation, but it really doesn't matter as long as the tune is set for the particular regulator pressure.

While still on Motronic I had bumped it up to see if it helped with the pinging (to about 4.3 bar)... it didn't. So when I came up for the VEMS install and tune I had to dial it back down and you said to set it at 3bar for whatever reason, something about something being happier at 3bar... I don't quite remember, all I remember is having to thread on that crappy gauge adaptor from you know who and set it, then I took it off once set. (their adaptor leaked).

Doesn't much matter to me, as long as the tune has what it expects. Would there be any reason to set it back to 4bar if moving to e85?

Depends, you may not have enough injector for E85 @ 3bar.

Which injectors? 60#?

I think he'll be ok. if you look at the taper on these billet rs2's the torque comes down anyway toward redline which is what taxes injectors (increasing revs at constant injector pulsewidth).

My base tune is for 4bar stock aan fp so my tune wont run right on your car...sorry
