new to tuning, who to go with?

So when running your maps you can you still turn traction control off all the way?

I was asking about 2nd gear as in autocross 8k rpms in first would help you a lot as well. Helping you stay in the power band more ect.


Never mind. I would assume map 2.

Correct; maps 1 & 2 do not incorporate the Racerom TC we have in maps 3 & 4. Therefore, by disengaging the factory TC while in map 1 or 2, TC is off.

I want to be careful about making any promises, but perhaps we could put together an autocross map that would raise the limit in 1st gear, and maybe provide a wider torque band too (which would require higher octane or preferably e85) because I absolutely understand what ya mean. I've done my fair share of autocrossing and it's (generally) pretty low speed, rarely requiring 3rd gear, so we could potentially adjust for those conditions in a new map.

We have so much on our plate at the moment, and we're doing our best to stay on track with our objectives right now. But we will still be working as hard as ever to accomodate our customer base's wants and needs, especially good ideas. If there's a high enough demand for an Autocross specific map, I'll see if we can get that put together.

As always, we'll keep everyone up to date on new developments, updates, etc.

i had the cricket issue and the dealer replaced the pump with a new, revised one and the cricket sound stopped completely and this was done months ago. it doesn't harm anything, but it is fixable if the sound annoys you

"Support local businesses" should play a role too, especially since Bob is considered a tuning authority in some circles.

Rich@ViscontiTuning, How come auto blip is not included in your tunes?

@Bu-Tang is correct; it's now a requested feature because it has the potential to be some-what dangerous at low speeds if you're not being careful or paying attention (like in stop and go traffic).

But if you want it, submit a ticket to our support console and we'll take care of ya!

Didn't read your whole thread, but this is a no-brainer... @Drift-Office is one of the best tuners out there and he's right down your alley. Whether you're a Visconti, Perrin, FA20club customer or etc; everyone knows a dyno tune (that DO offers) is hands down better than an e-tune. Bob @Drift-Office knows his stuff, and actually owns an FRS which he R&D'd his tunes on. @AVOturboworld works closely with him for his expertise and tools at his disposal.

If you're getting a SC, he's offered to tune free of charge (first SC customer only)...

If you've been to a meet, you e probably met Bob and didn't even know it.

Listen to @mechaghost, he's bought other tuners tunes and he ended up with Bob's tune.

Cool, I'll make a request.

Great idea! Quick question, how do you to gel between maps?
