Greetings,
We just got today's dyno results in for the OpenFlash Stg1 tune. This calibration is intended for completely stock 6MT vehicles running on pump gas (91-93 octane). The first dyno graph is comparing stock to our final OpenFlash Tablet Stg 1 calibration. The second dyno graph shows multiple runs with each calibration demonstration repeatability. There are no "glory runs" shown. The tune has been torture tested on the street and shown good stability. All the runs are taken from the same car on the same dyno, on the same day. The test car is completely stock. Not even a drop-in panel filter. It has 900 miles on the odometer with it's first oil change at 800 miles.
Other than having more power through revised fuel, ignition and intake/exhaust cam timing tables, listed below are some other changes that have been implemented to improve subjective driving characteristics. We think they will be especially appreciated by those who use their cars for track days and backroad attacks:
1) Overrun maps have been adjusted to allow for full engine breaking at higher engine speed. This is useful for those who use the throttle to adjust their cornering balance.
2) Remapped Drive-by-Wire tables to improve throttle response and provide for a more "natural" relationship between pedal position and throttle angle.
3) Acceleration enrichments have been adjusted to provide sharper torque response at sudden throttle openings.
4) Partial load ignition maps (2500-3500rpm) have been adjusted to eliminate knock and the resultant IAM decay that occurs with the stock tune under certain conditions.
5) Launch control and No-Lift Shift/Flat-foot shift implemented. Both are user adjustable.
The OpenFlash Tablet will be available for sale on Monday, September 9th. Intro price will be
$495. This Stage 1 map file will be available for download (and unencrypted viewing/editing) at that time as well. Other maps (for cars running on E85 and with more mods) will follow shortly thereafter
In the meantime if anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask here. For those who want to see the OpenFlash Tablet in action, you could look at the instruction videos and FAQs (for the BMW application) posted by our friends at Vishnu Tuning:

The FR-S/BRZ application is similar but with some distinct differences:
1) The initial installation takes approximately 2 minutes (instead of 1hr for the BMW)
2) Each flash write takes approximately 5 minutes (instead of 12 minutes for the BMW).
3) Each FR-S/BRZ ROM is generic and does not contain any unique vehicle identifiers (immobilizier, VIN data, etc,.) so entire ROMs can be flashed. This is very convenient. Whereas the BMW application requires the original ROM be modified by a patch feature in Tuner Pro.
That's all I can think of at this time of night. But I'll check in tomorrow
Good night to all...
