8.2 gallons of fuel used (thanks Torque app)
Oil temp read 240F
Map 3

30.2 mpg!!!! Can have FI and cake too!

Has the car shut off on you when switched into map 3? I was sitting at a stop light today and decided i wanted to do a little spirited driving switched the map to 3 and bam every light on my dash went off and car turned off.

Car started back up fine. So i tried switching it to map 3 again no problem this time. I get to a light and the idle drops below 700 and almost stalls. So I went back to map 1 and drove it home cautiously. Has anything like this happen to you guys?

Never. Which version tune are you running?

I'm always on map 3 because I enjoy the auto blip.

I make it a habit to drive in map 3 only. Actually over this weekend I was driving home from dinner. I was slowing down to a stop to make a left turn. Right before I stopped the car just shut off. It didn't shudder, shake, or jolt like it was going to stall. Just a gentle, "I'm off now" from Lola. She fired right back up and finished her service.

I figured I just didn't push in the clutch in time before the car stalled. I have "gentle" stalled her before so I thought this was another one of those situations where I goofed. For those who don't know gentle stalling appears to bystanders that I turned off the car intentionally rather than stall unintentionally.

If this happened to you, maybe this has to be looked at.

I have what Perrin calls the Rev6 tune. They sent me this after I asked them to turn of the P0420 CEL code that throws when you have no catalytic converter.

I think my sarcasm meter broke.

A very similar thing happened to me the first time I switched to map 3, the idle got much more rough than usual, then I stalled in a parking lot after driving about 3 miles. Since then I haven't had another problem, but I almost exclusively use map 1. It's plenty fast. I assumed the stall was related to the rough idle I have had since I got the car, I really wish that someone would sort that out.

I am running the rev 5 92 octane map. I am currently filling up with 93 pump gas. Could this be the reason this happened?

The intake that came with the vortech supercharger kit.

Unfortunately I wouldn't know. Maybe that is a good thing actually.

93 here as well. Do you change it on the fly while under load or just cruising? At stops or? Just wondering.

I think almost everyone is running a stock intake. My initial feeling was that even if the intake was different, it wouldn't change anything with the MAF being after the IC.

I ran rev5 for a while, this sounds very odd
those of you stalling, I want to test something is it stalling when the car does a idle dip?
are you ate the factory rpm idle?

1-does it happen consistently?
2-does it happen with the air filter removed?(I can send anyone who wants to test this my hi flo filter if you send it back to me)

I like my motor with a slightly higher idle. I raised it for NVH on the perrin mounts, but love the ever so slightly higher idle's mitigation of idle fluctuation and dips that seem native to our platform

0-yes
1-no, it only happened once
2-I have never removed my air filter so I dunno

Jeff just sent me an updated map, I am going to flash it tonight.

Same as Pete. I need to see if we got an updated map.

0-yes
1-no, it only happened twice. I tried it out this morning again it worked no problem.

I have only changed it when stopped. I can try while cruising later today and see.

I think I like the raised idle, is my point...
