OpenFlash Tablet: v1.60 OTS Maps (beta)-- USDM testers wanted
 

Hi guys,
We finally have v1.60 beta maps reading to go! Currently only for USDM cars (C and D series ROMs). But we can extend support to the other ROM types very quickly. But first we are looking for some testers who can provide us with useful feedback. Please email me (shiv@vishnutuning.com) if you would like to test AND meet the following requirements:

-OFT user
Beta maps will be provided as a .dev file. Like all beta maps, this means that they cannot be edited or viewed. This is just to make sure that no one tinkers with the maps at this point.

-Datalog user
You need to know how to datalog and use Datazap.me. This means being able to run 3rd gear WOT pulls from 2000 to 7500rpm and send me datazap links for viewing.

-Stock Air box
Those will aftermarket CAIs should not test at this time. Only those with stock air boxes please!

-USDM customers
This means your CAL ID must end in either a C or D :)

I'll be creating a mailing list for the next couple of days and will be emailing the maps out on Friday just in time for some weekend testing. In my email, I'll also include more infer about the new maps, what to look for, and how to test. Looking forward to hearing from you guys!

Cheers,
Shiv

hmmm in OZ so that counts me out

Count me in Shiv!

Exciting, I can do all these except for the finding a place to do 3rd gear WOT conveniently. :popcorn: Still exciting though, hoping for LC on B01C.

I'm down to beta test.. i have a Sunday autox that would love some 1.6 goodness :)

Count me in, I'm a 700C.

Mods: K&N drop in filter (intake is otherwise 100% stock), Perrin 2.5" catted front pipe and 2.5" resonated cat back.

700c as well. Would love to get in on this. Anything I could do to help with your great product.

@shiv@vishnu Do you know if LC will be implemented in these new OTS Maps for ones that dont have it yet? Would love to see how this feature works

I'm in! Would also like to know if lc and ffs is implemented into these. I'm on bo1c

E-mailed

I would love to help out.. count me in

Count me in for C series stage 2. I have the OFH. Emailed

LC has been available for a long time, you just have to open the ROM in the ROM Raider tuning program and enable it.

You won't be able to do that with the beta release since they're .dev files and can't be edited, but the final release will have it.

I can give it a go. OFT, OFH and no other engine mods (stock airbox, snorkle and filter).

Is the E85 map changed? Id be down if thats needed.

All the maps have revisions :)

I have a B01C ROM.... so no LC or FFS on these yet....

wooo! Mooooar POWAH.

Just a free bump because I'm excited for it to go official

93 maps? :iono:

Got a pretty big mailing list going. Expect an email from me tomorrow.

Also, please don't respond this post via PM :)

@shiv@vishnu
Dyno for the changes?
What kind of quantifiable improvements are there in this new release?
What were your aims/goals?

Cheers

I've only dyno tested Stage 1 v1.6 and it made a 5-6whp more than Stage 1 v1.69. Drove smoother and was a bit more refined as well. Less induction noise at WOT in the 2500-3000rpm range too.

Stage 2 has seen road testing and similar drivability improvements. But it didn't get as much of an overhaul as Stage 1 since it already had a lot more development time put into it (since that is how our shop car is configured 95% of the time). E85 maps got some minor wheels but nothing too major. They already performed quite well.

More will be explained in the email I'll send to the v1.60 beta tester mailing list :)

Cheers
Shiv

Thanks, but yeah I am out as Oz as well..

Hey don't feel too bad, at least you have your car. Mine's in the shop being fixed after getting rear ended and all I wanna do is test these damn maps out! :(

If these are based off the latest ROM, will you include a copy of the base ROM as well, please?

I'd be down, but I don't have the tablet:lol:

Discount price for being a tester? :lol:

base ROM are at end of this post if you need them :) just unzip them and transfer to OFT

e85 ESC included in this Beta or not yet? If so, sign me up!

Curious about e85. "Small Changes" Will the average driver be able to feel those changes? lol

Will dev files still not work on 700c?

All I have is the OFT, but thanks just the same!

You do not need the latest base ROM to flash. Just so you know. It was a question I had before getting my OFT.

However, since I want the latest ROM and only have the OFT, I need the latest OFT ROM for my cal to be based on the latest factory ROM, which, AFAIK, is what is being done with the 1.60 ROMs. I just need to spring for a Tactrix.

What you're asking about has nothing to do with the OFT beta test ROMs my friend. Best not to clutter this thread further.

It kind of does

AFAIK oft tunes roms are based on the later calid roms ie if you were on a 700C rom the oft tuned rom you load would actually be based on an A01C rom and this had the patches for LC and FFS. The B01C guys missed out as the patches were not done for B01C or D they just got the tuning changes.

Hopefully the 1.6 tunes may do this ie be based on B01C. so all users effectivly get updated to B01 series rom with lc and ffs.

To jump a rom series you would need a tactrix without a lot of stuffing arround

And again, this has what to do with THE BETA? Oh, nothing. The fundamental way the OFT ROMs work is not the question here.

:threadjacked:

whatever mate , just trying to help people , you win

Do you realize you are trolling one of, if not the most helpful person in the software tuning section? Also, the B01 series maps do indeed affect things if they include changes for that series CalID. There are several fixes that might be of interest to those that can't or rather not go to a dealer to get the latest CalID. Knowing wether or not the beta maps includes these fixes may or may not explain differences people see while beta testing.

In other words, you can tone it down a tad.

Did the beta testers get an email today? I just emailed shiv so hopefully I can still join in :)

I'll test e85 ESC as well, whenever you're ready for us @shiv@vishnu
