Sounds like launch control kicking in. It's set at 5600rpm unless you change the LC RPM Delta.

I'm running A01C v1.33beta and shifted near 7k rpm a number of times today with no issues.
You may have been engaging the launch control feature if you were wot with the clutch depressed.

EDIT: Oops, I was a little late. Thanks cnk!

You're good jeebus - Shiv is correct. Other than that one table scaling, there was no discernable difference between A00C and A01C. If you've uploaded one of the OTS maps and it's based off A01C, the scaling will be correct (i.e. the -50 offset). I would assume that Vishnu would have standardised the OTS roms off one CAL id.

If you're using OFT to open up stock roms, not provided by Vishnu (e.g. Ecuflash extracted), and the scaling has been changed to -50 for all the A0*C roms, A00C would be incorrectly displayed - unless a separate XDF file has been created specifically for A00C. I haven't checked out the latest OFT maps, so Shiv would have to answer that one.

Like I said before, I'd rather be proven wrong

So,.. I flashed the latest beta and drove to and from work. Thus far I can say that I am really not happy and would prefer to flash back to the prior beta. The prior beta pulled like a train, was snappy and the tq dip disappeared sooner as I rev'd the car.

It is a strong possibility that perhaps my car has not had time to read the ecu but I drove about 20 miles total.. to and from work. I tried to open her up a few times just so the car could experience it and learn.

I dont know what is going on between 1k to 2k but it is not a smooth rev and almost bucks slightly.

If the newest beta tune 1.33 is safer than the prior then I will accept that.. did they reduce the timing or something? if its not safer at all and the prior beta is just as safe then I may flash back.

thoughts? ill give it another commute to work.

based on the compare bin tool, the only real changes are to the scaling of the transient ignition retard, so I can't image it would feel much different anywhere else?

I do have a question about the Knock Detection RPM range table. Should this go up to 7650 since our redline has been raised?

New to the OFT. Is it better to run v1.31 or v1.33beta for the first go-around (no-headers installed).

I too feel the same thing... Not sure what was changed but the car accelerated a lot faster with 1.31 than 1.33 beta. Shifts seem smoother though.

Every time I reflash, it takes a few drives (50 miles?) to get back to normal.

Give it a few miles. Right after I reflashed to 1.33b the car was sluggish and the vvt didn't come on till what felt like 4.5krpm. After I got to my destination and was going home the car felt like it should.
