some of the functions i have to deal with on a day to day basis on new manufacturer products would actually amaze people that a) its actually possible to do and b) that you would atually need to use it anyway !!

and these are just for the normal running of an everyday production sportscar (and i use the sportscar and production loosely !) make the weber syetm fitted to teh cossy look like - well lets just say that toasters have more capable electronic control devices

thats not to say it doesnt do its job , cause it does , and very well in some case ,

but more and more cars come with variables that have to be accounted for when the mapping process is carried out , multiple maps are std on a lot of cars ! so to me that makes twice the mapping work for the tuner who decides he can re-map it to be better , the more variables that can affect any points in the map the harder the job gets ,

lets have a bit of a conflab on variable valve timing and mapping

and i do mean VARIABLE not fixed advance/retard systems

discuss yo'll !!
