Would like to see the resolution and table options available for fuel and ignition advance. Screen shots?

How does your software deal with MAF flow increase?

Right now PC side software for my setup doesn't exist. I'm only experienced in hardware programming, and I have no idea what I am doing in terms of pc side programming.

How did you figure out what the maps were when you actually were able to read the eprom and get a bin file on your computer? Did you ask volvo or actually figure out what the map's address's in the rom were? Did you pay some one for the info on what the maps were, because if you did, and it was something ridiculously expensive, then I could justify you selling them for that much INITIALLY.

Also, how do you go about tuning the ECU when the usb connector is in the engine bay and you are in the car with the laptop?

Im pretty sure a usb cable run inside thru the firewall would cover this. Also,tuning should be done on a dyno.That being said,a usb cable run over the cowl and into the car shouldnt be much of a problem.Some of you have all the tech down,but miss simple things

And also,most tunes are 675 and you cant change them yourself...another 200 to be able to change your tune at will doesnt sound bad.R&D costs money. If you can come up with a solution for less cash then do it. Let these people alone,everyone is allowed to make a profit.You pay for dollars a gallon for gas,are you writing to exxon mobile too?

Amazing news for us who were all at the mercy of other tuning companies. While I won't be jumping on this JUST yet, It's definately something I'll more than likely get.

I know TurboTuner has flown the coop but if he's still lurking, maybe you could answer how easily an experienced Megasquirt tuner could adapt to using this software for dyno tuning?

And for those of you wanting to use this on the road...

Spoke with Adam (turbotuner) through PMs over the last couple days, this could be an interesting product. He mentioned he will post up a few screen shots next week to show us.

And the issue of MAF load limits...

"MAF load limits is addressed by giving the user the ability to adjust the MAF limits based on RPM. So for example, if you want to protect weak conrods low down in the rev range, you can do that."

this and controlling the boost down low (IE too much boost at low RPM's) would be a HUGE life saver for the rods.

wow. obviously that could be a lifesaver. what is the flexibility and resolution at which we can limit the MAF values based on RPM. In addition to that, how does it go about enforcing that MAF value, by lowering boost pressure?
