I am going to go through and create a ROM right now based on the B01C ROM that was just released because I had a pre retail release version that I am actually having some issues with in regard to forcing the the ECU to use the MAP as the Baro input. No matter what I have tried it will not force the ECU as it is suppose to in that particular ROM release. Every other ROM I have no problems. I am hoping perhaps something in this official release gets it done. We shall see. Perhaps the software update too from 14761 to 14826 may have something to do with it.

Since my last post I literally went through every single map and really nothing of any significance has been changed. Idle drop seems to have pretty much smoothed out but I need to do some more testing of it which will likely be done by the end of the day. One thing I have noticed is that for whatever reason the new software update and rom update have now required me to go in and remove the P0107 DTC to prevent all kinds of weirdness (basically limp mode). I was previously able to just raise the DTC threshold voltage max and lower the the min to avoid the P0107 and still have a little bit of a diag indication if something were to crap out on the ECA but apparently something has been changed in those calculations that require the DTC to be disabled. I mean not a big deal but caused me to flash the car like 5 times trying to determine what the hell was going on all of the sudden with my ROMs as I made small changes (wish live tuning was a reality with EcuTek for dumb stuff like this). I could go through I suppose and compare the A01C to the B01C stock ROMs but it more work than I care to do. Someone with the trade version can do it in like 2 seconds whereas I have to go through every damn map manually.

I am a little curious if anyone else has experienced this as well since the update or if I have just been getting lucky manipulating the min and max for the CPC input.

The things I would do for live tuning... I would pay a fairly large amount of money for this. Or even just partial writes.

RaceRom is a software upgrade that provides advanced features such as map switching, speed density, custom mapping, and more. These features are not available in the free EcuTek proECU software.

For more details, see here: http://www.brz-parts.com/cms-ecu-rru.html

is there any place in software menus that show this sotfware is upgraded to racerom or not upgraded?

Have you paid for it? If so, just do an update.

Open a map and see if you can edit custom maps. If yes then you have the RR upgrade.

"edit custom map" means editing some special feature or generally editing option?

Special features. What are you trying to achieve? Or more to the point, why did you ask?

nothing to do ...
I just want be sure my kit is upgraded .

[Kodename47]

Just a quick question for those who have the Racerom upgrade. Did it give you access to more of the standard tables/parameters or just the extra Racerom features?
