autoblip on ecutek

Can someone tell me how the autoblip is suppose to work on the ecutek, it seems our tuner has installed it but my friend says it doesn't work, how is it suppose to react?

Is it happenning when you are on the brake and press the clutch or what is the sequence exactly?

Yes, it should work when pushing on the brake and then the clutch is depressed. Most tuners will enable it only on certain mapswitch modes and usually over a set RPM and speed so it doesn't happen at low speeds. All of that is configurable by the tuner.

I had it in one of my tunes and was unable to get it to work consistently. It also did not do a good job of matching revs. Learning to use your right foot will be worth the trouble.

Nothing like a real heel toe vs software assist.

I don't understand this feature. Why drive a manual at all if using things like autoblip and flat foot shifting dull the driving experience and reduce the liklihood that one might learn or improve upon the skills required to drive proficiently?

Rev matching is not hard to learn.

Probably wasn't set up very well. I found on track it was quite a useful feature. I bet most that put it down haven't used it. Is heel and toe more involving, sure, but I find I can't rev match nearly as easily as I could in my EK9 Type R. Maybe my skills aren't mad tight yo, but I can have it enabled in one mode and not active in another. Would I use it on the road all the time, not a chance as it's not perfect, but when driving fast or on track it's a great feature if setup well.

It is most likely on active on higher RPMS. Mine wont blip unless im over 3k rpms which makes sense being its more of a racing application.

Tell him to ask his tuner on which map the blip is.
Or, he could just rev match on his own
