Thanks, but I'd rather not add extras when I already have something that can control that.

None of hot target idles in the base ecutek rom files are over 1K. And I was talking about at a complete stop so... just sayin' .... it isn't oem.

Not a problem. We can setup a faster throttle response and it can be customized per map. So if you want an aggressive map on say 3 and 4 and a standard daily map on 1 and 2 like you have now we could do that.

Everyone wants there own setup and I have no problem adjusting it.

Thanks for the updated. Sounds positive.

We have seen the Auto's exhibit a little more load on the engine and in doing so have a tendency to want to drop the RPM's a little faster and die a little more easily. It is something we are working on making a little smoother.

I have a stock automatic FR-S and I mean 100% stock. I would like to consider a tune for this, as it has nearly 10k miles. I run it on 91 octane in CA and need to pass smog (legally). I am not sure if this would void the warranty either. It is a daily driver so I also need reliability. I was wondering if you offer any tunes for me. And how much hp and torque I could expect to gain. This is a street car. Thanks!

My brother has been driving my car for the past week while I was out of town on the E85 map. I only got to drive it myself tonight for the first time with E85. I'm running the Innovate supercharger, intercooled, with the 70mm pulley. On 93 octane there have been some issues that Bill is working on to staighten them out. My brother isn't too familiar with driving my car so it was hard for him to tell a difference. All I can say is my car is ridiculous with Bills E85 tune. It is such a smooth power delivery through the entire rev range. Not only that but JESUS the pull this car has now is insane. I really don't see how this tune can be improved upon but if anyone can do it, Bill is the man. I can't wait to get down to a dyno to see what kind of numbers I put down.

One question though to anyone that can answer. Maps 1 & 2 are both 93oct, Map 3 is E60, and Map 4 is E85. Every time I turn my car off, it automatically defaults back to Map 1 instead of staying on Map 4. Is this the norm or did I do something different? Thanks guys!!

there's a start up trick to get it to keep maps - turn car to acc let it sweep the gauges turn off then crank the car - bill posted a video in the ecu tune section, I'm mobile otherwise I'd link it for you.

We offer a couple options including our Stage 1 for 91 octane.

We also offer a switchable map so you can run E85 also. The E85 on a stock setup actually makes over 200+ whp. Here is a little more info on that also.

Of course with an auto, it will not make quite as much but still a vast improvement on E85. And on 91 octane you will still notice the difference.

Would you like me to submit a ticket, or email you about this? I know you were swamped before and weren't able to keep track of requests from the forum?

If this is is fine, my engine is bone stock except for a drop in filter, and I'm stuck with 91 octane gas. I'd like your standard throttle map, and traction control, on map 1 with. And map 2 to have faster throttle response, flat foot shift, and launch control.

Thanks!

[makesdrivingfunagain]

Thanks for your response!! I will definitely consider this, as tunes work...!

Mine does this as well

Just send me an email.

As for the auto's that want to drop a little more on RPM's when they come to a stop. This is something I am working on especially for your supercharged guys as they have the most load on the engine wanting to cause a stumble at idle. Note this will be worse with the AC and lights on.

If you would like to see what is actually happening, watch your battery voltage when you turn on the AC, lights and come to a stop with an auto with or without the supercharger. You will see the battery voltage will actually drop down to ~12 (maybe even dip into the 11's) volts where it should stay around 13+ (close to 14) volts to be able provide enough power for the vehicle to run properly.

That much of a draw on the alternator causes the car to want to stumble at idle. So though it might be able to fixed through the tune the amount of amps drawn on the entire system is causing the idle drop. So trying to figure out a proper way to keep things running smoothly.

What are you setting idle at?
