Gen 90 Mapping

[TarkMalbot]

I a looking to get the ITB fitted in a month or so and the Gen 90 ECU. It should have a map of it suitable for my 172 but I want to get it custom mapped to make sure it is running at its best. Can most mappers Connect with the Gen 90?
Where is recommended in the North?
I presume RS Tuning is a good bet although they are still 5 hour round trip for me which might be a little worrying on a base map that doesn't match my exhaust system?

Pm ph1 tom as he might help as he is running the ktec gen90 and itb setup

Anywhere worth taking it can map it where abouts are you based

Paul at RS Tuning can do GEN90 (he did mine).

I've been to EFI too see a car he mapped (and took a passenger ride) and seems a top guy who knows his stuff would have no hesitation in taking a car there. @Chi

Chris is one of the best in the UK. He's got the Gen90 setup too so you don't need a key and software either.

scoff at efi is the man!!! wouldnt trust anyone else

 

[bloke]

drove one that efi did that had been previously mapped by a 'specialist' was a lot better to drive after it had been done, kept the car for a good few days to sort the cold start map out as well.

Ill be taking my clio (with GEN90), to Chris for mapping when its ready.

Sounds like a plan then. My only issue would be the cold starting as I would prefer to get it done in a day whilst I was there rather than leave the car there. Early days yet but thanks for the information and I will plan to take it there when I have the ECU, ITB's and Exhaust on.

 

[bloke]

well worth leaving it with him for a few days, trust me nothing worse than a crappy cold start map!!!

I agree with @bloke - a poor cold start map is a pain in the ass. Mine needs sorting and, over the last few days where the weather has been very cold and icy, it's made the car pretty much undriveable and a b!tch to start.

Chris is the only person who I'll be leaving mine with he sorted it out when the Cup was on standard cams and he'll be doing the Piper 285's, top man and it's his main job, I'll be leaving mine with him for a few days to sort out all the cold start problems you can get, I'm on a standard inlet not ITB's.

I still had cold start issues when we just used a base map to begin with before I bolted the turbo on , it need to be right otherwise you will know about it
