Ah yes, for E85 - I see that now. I'm still on Pump
Good catch. I've got the aFe as well, but I don't think that aFe update was released yet as I had been in contact with him after that. |

Any word on if/when e85 and pumpgas will be on the same tune again (without flexfuel)?
Also; why has the auto-blip feature been taken off the tunes? |

It was/is considered a little dangerous because it is hard to control when it blips, which could cause a blip when you dont want it (particularly when you are exiting on a highway off-ramp). It seems a lot of people didnt particularly like the feature anyway. It is still available upon request.

I haven't been keeping up on things; is there a changelog or updated dyno, etc.? I'm not too sure what has been changed in each tune.

Oh, I'm sorry, I have been very out of touch. Selling a house, buying a new one, lost my laptop that had all that stuff bookmarked. I've been very out of the loop. I'm sure you've been keeping it up to date

Oh, the traction control wasn't activating properly... that explains a lot.

Ordered a Perrin CAI. Really excited to see the overall difference from stock with a custom tune.

OK, I have searched are read the FAQs...but not sure how I can load my E85 tune AND my STG1 Pumpgas tune...so I can switch back\forth with map switching. Search has turned up lots of info on differences in maps being features or changing minor config items...but not that for example Map 1=pumpgas, Map 2=E85, Map 3=E70, Map 4=stock. Am I missing something? I really appreciate the help for a NOOB to flashing.
FWIW, I had no problems flashing the STG1 tune. But my car is on "E" right now and I would really like to load the E85 tune (via map switching)...after I drive to the station on my ~93 pumpgas. I totally understand HOW to do the map switching (with the CC stalk)...just not seeing how to LOAD\FLASH to enable it. Again, any help is appreciated. Thanks, Szippy |

It used to be like that in the beginning. It is now seperated. His flex fuel kit will solve the issue.

These guys are on the right track but let me shed a little more light on it. Every time you cycle the ignition, the car reverts to whatever is in Map 1. The problem with this is 100% safety concerns. If you've got the pumpgas map loaded into Map 1, and then let's say hypothetically like you described, you've got the e85 map in Map 2, and e70 in Map 3, and then you fill the tank with e85 and switch to Map 2.. technically you should be fine right? You would be IF you remembered 100% of the time to switch to the appropriate map every single time you cycled the ignition/turned your car on. We realize that sounds simple enough, and I'm sure 99.9% of the time, everyone would remember. But that 1 time out of 1,000 when "someone" forgets to switch, could be enough to blow the engine and create a VERY unhappy customer. As we've stated since the beginning; safety is, and will always be the top priority with our calibrations. And until we're able to build in a failsafe or automatic Map switching mechanism (and it's in the works), we just can't load both e85 and pumpgas calibrations on the same flash. We know how eagerly people are waiting for this capability, and this thread will literally be the first to know when we make this functionality available. Until then, trust me.. we feel your pain. But we'd much rather have you deal with this inconvenience for the time being, rather than the (albeit small) possibility of dealing with the MUCH BIGGER problems forgetting to switch maps could create. Does that make sense? It's in the works! We want to give you guys a "turn-it and drive-it" solution no matter what fuel/blend is in your tank, and that's what we'll deliver. |

Seriously though what's going on with the flex fuel solution, that thread is dead and as much as I try I can't get Visconti to give any more info, I'm just inquiring because I really, REALLY wanna throw money at you guys.
