It would be, if that was the only thing changed. But, since anyone who is modifying those tables would be changing a lot more, it's not really something that is done , if you know what I mean. The...

How the ECU reads tables, effects how it reacts to inputs

The resident man of knowledge about these ECU's had this to tell me about the DBW tables;
"Well, the basics are 3 sets of tables - requested torque base, which is effectively a denominator that is...

You'd have to ask Shiv that one. The Procede is made to do a lot more than throttle control, but only Shiv would know how.

I'm making progress now

I've tested lower and lower Calculated Torque tables and found what makes the TCU shift really really badly. If the figures are too high, the TCU short shifts and bogs down. If the figures are too...

Yes, there is something you can do.

If you have a way to edit your ECU, as in Ecutek, BRZedit, Tactrix, or OFT, you can open the Drive By Wire section, and edit the Calculated Torque tables to affect the TCU. I've just started trying...

Calculated torque tables are it!

I made some test tunes and found out the Calculated Torque tables are it. It works just the opposite of what I'd expect however. CT tables remade to mirror the power I'm getting now cause the AT to...

Sure. Open Source. No secrets here.

Here is Shiv's OFT OTS table for comparison, then my current table, then a comparison between the two, and finally a comparison between my first Brute Force, (BRUT4S) table and the OTS table. My...

Changing the Drive-By-Wire throttle map

As a sports car owner, I am offended by the fact that a stock Automatic FT86 can't keep up with a much of anything, econocars, SUV's, or minivans, in stop and go traffic.
The reason is, the cars...

If you don't have the guts to do it, scoff at those who do

The 2017 MT already comes with a 4.30 FD, instead of a 4.10. That had to cost them a bit. The DBW throttle mapping can be done for FREE. Neither throttle mapping, nor changing the FD would affect the...

It's not the pipe diameter, but the flange face that needs to match. I believe those are both using standard 2.5" flanges, but even if it is 2.25" to 2.5" it should work as well. 2.5" to 3" can even...

Get the 4.88 and a 2nd rear carrier

It won't give your car any more torque or horsepower. That said, it will give you more horsepower per revolution of tire. More important, it will reduce the gap between gears, making it easier to...

PROcede map 3, the one with the most boost, and the only difference from the tunes I posted, is the throttle table from a MT instead of an AT.

2. 4.88 Final Drive

You can copy and paste from a spreadsheet, like Excel, but you have to put the voltage row on the bottom, and the scaling above that. Otherwise it only pastes in the voltages, twice.
