map switching will be free.

First map will be a Vehicle Disable

Second Map will be a Valet Mode

Third Map Will be a Tune

Fourth Map will be a Tune w/ Launch Control and Flat Foot Shifting Enabled

Will it be possible to have multiple tunes on the map switching. For example:

First map : stock
Second map: stage 1
Third map: e85
Fourth map: e85 with launch control and flat foot.

This would be the setup I would be interested in.

I should be getting my cable on monday. It would be awesome if that was something I could switch to in the future.

I would want the fourth map as stock since it will be the least used anyways. I don't guess it matters but thats just my preference.

So if you got the e85 tune does that mean you have to use e85 all the time when that map is on?

Sorry for my ignorance as well. I've only gotten my old RSX reflashed and that's as far as I went with ecu tuning. My Gixxer has a PC-V but that took no effort from me. Lol

I want to get the most out of this engine but living in CA with crap gas and limited e85 makes it kinda hard. Suggestions?

Yes, you cannot run e85 on any different map or stock ecu. You will have to run the tank almost empty, fill up with e85 and switch maps. If you want to run 91-93, then you will have to switch the map back.

So, if you have the factory map on the flash can the dealer see that you have options to change it?

This very second you need to flash for e85 or pump.

In the next month ecutek will have the map switching working in a way to switch between pump and ethanol.. Flex Fuek support to come shortly after

This looks incredible! Wish we could get E85 up here in Vancouver.

Will there be any methanol tuning options available though Ecutek for NA?

With the success of E85 tuning on this car, would methanol injection be able to provide similar results?
