From what I read so far I can flash the A01G version to my 2013/A00G car?
2) I want to use RomRaider to add timing to Waynes 1.09 if using that instead of OTS (tip from Wayne). EU/German fuel is supposedly better than AU (see my log, no knock on stock tune with 34 deg C ambient temperature).
Q:
I suppose your "OFT Manual G series" A01G file will work both for Waynes 1.09 and OFT 2.076?
I might want to experiment with "sound tuning" (exhaust bubble). Or other simple stuff where I can follow guides and slowly learn to use the software. I would need the Overrun tables from your definitions (thank you for your work).
Questions that have been answered:
1) Use Github 32bitbases - leave the other files as they are.
2) The OTS is a true A01G and won't cause me headaches if/when editing.
3) Use Github A01G EcuFlash definition (6 months old) for any A01G tune, no matter what definition was used to edit in RomRaider (thanks).
Future plans:
After I moved (in 2 months) and get a garage I want to remove the cat from the stock header. Then I want to repeat the above for a stg 2 tune, or depending on how brave I am/how much it catches my interest/how much time I have, might try out working on it myself.
Thanks for helping me out. 
Steve99, I don't know what I did to piss you off, I am just looking for advice on the (I suppose) fairly simple questions above. In any case thank you for writing the many guides, which without I would be even more confused.  |
Im not upset mate
I just don't like hearing about people bricking their ecu :-)
If your stock rom is A00G then yes use A01G roms and defs and you should be fine.
You probably best using wayno's roms and his defs for romraider use the A01G roms and defs. His roms are already set up with a lot of good tweaks and set up for 98 ron fuel not usa 91/93.
Then just flash with ecuflash using a A01G def, make sure you let ecuflash correct checksum, romraider does not correct it properly.
All the roms are native metric, the defs just scale the parameters to display in metric (some eg kodename47 defs) or imperial (romraider , wayno,s). The danger is transferring data from one rom to another if you have a mix of metric and imperial defs.
keep everything A01G and you should be fine. always worth checking rom with hex editor to see all three calid are same and A01G and that some tables like Primary OL fueling and base timing B look fine and x/y axis look good, mismatch rom/def will show up with weird values or weird axis values.
If you ever see anything weird, don't flash, find out what problem is.
