Please put auto-blip on different map number, if it's included. For those that instinctively heel-toe, auto-blip is a nightmare.

Looking forward to the new tune so I can get rid of this pesky CEL issue. I seem to be the only one but CEL = no TC/VSC control so I can't keep from clearing them.

Also thankful for @Visconti correcting the issue with my engine running a bit lean. She's a rocket ship now!

I think with flex fuel there are no more maps, there is only a single map. And you pick and choose what features you want on that map.

Not sure. I'm guessing it's because of the modifications that I made to the stock airbox and, perhaps, due to the oiled K&N filter I was running. I switched over to a dry Cosworth filter yesterday, as well. Car's running fantastic now, though. Smooth, smooth.

So, after having everything on the car for a few days I'm finding because of my height and the spot everyone seems to use for the display, I can't see it really well. I'm also looking for a way to make it look a little more OEM so I'm wondering if I can use the external features of this (http://www.fa20club.com/product.php?...cat=276&page=1) to move it to the drivers side vent and just run the raw output into it and hide the current display..... anyone know if this would work, or can anyone think of a reason why it wouldn't?

It appears this would work due to the following in the description:

"Universal Aux Inputs Includes additional inputs to optionally connect any 0-5v sensor with universal settings for display ranges and bargraph displays from -999 and 9999 max values. "

The White/Blue wire outputs a 5v signal that correlates to the ethanol percentage (voltage * 20 = ethanol percentage).

So, you should be able to set the range of 0-100 on the 5v aux setting and it should deduce that 0v = 0%, 1v = 20%, ..., 5v = 100% ethanol content.

Is there a PID in torque we can use to see ethanol level now?

Yruyur · 07-09-2013, 03:29 PM

John said yes a while back but dont know what the pid is.

Can probably post some torque logs using the pid scanner while the sensor is plugged in and when not plugged in. Post them up in the torque thread and someone can probably figure it out for us.

Is there a technical reason why this was done differently?

I bet the flex fule tune required more storage than a traditional map.
