clips are getting outnumbered!!!

yeah I know. I'm just an anorak. power is all there anyway. And the idle is nice. So I happy. Was just curious as to why some peoples go to 7.5

right... Still confused!!! took it out, let it warm up properly. cold idle is 1100rpm warm idle is 950rpm rev limit in 2nd is 7250rpm rev limit in 3rd is 7250rpm top speed in 3rd is 95mph Before I put this map on I was getting better figures than that, apart from the smoother idle. The map...

7500rpm ish in 2nd when warm. Sorted. no need to take it up there anyway now I know. Cheers for all the help guys, I apologise for being a bit retarded at the start, just didn't want to break the ecu :) can I do a backup of the ecu now though just so I have it on file?

In the top right of rstuner where it logs when it has been updated, It now says FASTCHIP with todays date so it must of worked.

Yeah, to be fair, it already pulled pretty hard through mid range so I reckon it was running some sort of older version of the map. Henk said I didn't need to run a .rst file so he must know it had it already. Just an updated calibration I think.

When I went to backup the .cal file it was actually called rstuner_ something so it was mapped. Feels the same as before anyway and the cold idle is better. Will just wait and see about the rev limiter. Might have to have a drive down to you Matt so I can give it some on the way.

better be or im driving to nl. None of my files backed up after it said they had. Has also thrown up the ABS fault when I plug rs tuner in. Isnt showing anything on the dash though.

Im running 7300 / 5410. How long does yours take to warm up, the needle was at half way on the temp gauge (I know that's not always correct) Im begging it to go past 7k. Not that I do it all the time but its nice to know it will go there. Idle rpm when cold has improved now. It used to sit on...

hopefully. I took it for a few runs up and down the road and it hit the limiter just shy of 7k every time.

right... So... It hasn't saved my old ecu or .cal file. Says it has installed the new .cal but now my limiter in second is under 7k. idle is now 1000 or just under. Made it worse and I cant change it back.... f**k sake

On this video he clicks on "fastest" before he backs up the ECU. The second time he connects he clicks on "presets" before he writes the .CAL Is that essential? (sorry, just covering all points before I go and do this)

O FKIN K!

ok. @ADS1982 is saying j need to write ECU with a .rst file from Henk first? I havnt received a .rst file, only a .cal f**k me this s**t is a ball ache...

I have got the unlock code and map file now. I have only 1 .cal file which is the 98ron map. Do I backup the ecu I currently have and the .cal file. Then click on write CAL and select the new one and that's it done? I don't have to write a new ECU or anything?

the come on! At the end made it worth it all :D

I wanted to do it tonight but nevermind. Should hopefully have it tomorrow. Can you post up a screenshot of yours with the map on so I can compare it to mine to make sure its done.

Nope, waiting for an unlock code, how long dis yours take to come through?

go blast it now. How long did it take to get your unlock code?

good point @james24785. I will get it sorted anyway.

Have watched the fastchip vids and am pretty confident doing it now. When you first plug it in it tells you how to backup the ecu anyway. What is the read ecu tab for at the top if you are already prompted to read it anyway?

not you James, the other James, lmao. :D

ok. Why are you saying different then James? So if Henk sends me another map file it could be a newer version of the same map?

well I've got people saying different things here so I'm still not sure. I will just run the map what Henk sends me and if its better I will keep, if its s**t I will not.

how come James?

all I'm worried about is putting this map on and it lacks power or isn't as responsive. Can you do it for me matt I don't feel safe lol. I will come to you :smiley:

1100 when I start it up. 900-950 warm. is a bit of a lumpy idle when a but warmer though and cold start isn't the best. can hit 7500rpm too.

ok cheers. I'm just waiting for Henk tonget back to me with the unlock code and map file. I will back it all up first then.

and a waste of £160. Or maybe £40 if I sell it. So I can backup both the ecu and the cal already being used? I like how it runs at the moment but thought a remap would be even better. if I see no gains I will revert back. Cant see it being any worse to be fair.

have just read on another post that 5E10 is a 98ron map, just an older version. is that correct? If so I think that is wjat I am running at the moment? Is it worth updating to the newest one?
