What you would want different on the two maps?
Why cant one map be used for both?
and one for 95 ron when going to my mums 300 miles away.
I,d rather burn the shit stuff to get there tbh.
L8 has multiple octane switches as standard so you can already do that mate!
lol at you chip about mapping it, it sounds like a nightmare haha
Its so annoying, im a qualified software engineer and hence have written stuff like this for a living, so it really is something I know quite a bit about, but sadly whoever wrote that software doesnt!
not my concern though thts what you guys are for lol.
Well this is true, if you are getting Dave to map it anyway (which is a good idea, he is a VERY good mapper) then its of no concern how its done
chip it does sound interesting you say tht a level8 does have the ability to be more efficent (if thts what ur saying)
Manufactures spend a lot of time on such things, and dont forget that although the YB and economy dont go hand in hand, that ecu is used on a lot of other vehicles too.
The problem with the L8, is that most of the chips out there arent very good, you really need to have YOUR car mapped by someone like Karl who really knows what he is doing in order to get the most out of it.
Ok so base idle co,s arent everything i guess but it shows it can refine it nicely. From a customers point of view is it a bad thing the software isn,t up to the standard of others?
Emerald can give good results in terms of both economy and power mate, and like I just mentioned, if you arent mapping it anyway then the one really annoying thing aobut it wont adversely effect you personally anyway
