so with regard to mapping do you map the "no load" site first, then go out and map the "max load" site and the software can create a graph of all of them? [wont be hard with a theoretical 110 bhp and the long drag from saddleworth moor uphill towards leeds
then you use the same values for the top load site of each range [gear yeah?] then the software can fill in the values i between? if not i take it you will have to enter these values yourself using a shallow parabolic curve as a guide?
i had a look at Mark V8's map of his RS2k on the demo download software, and thats what it sort of looks like. i appreciate that the power delivery for an 8v will be different to a 16v - a bit more torquey with more fuel/less advance coming in earlier than the 16v...
do i sound retarded?
