Well, ran today on 100octane. The map(1) that was flashed specifically for the 100 doesn't work properly. It'll run no boost, but if I restart the car, it'll run boost for just a little, then go right back to running no boost, very annoying and I've had this similar issue before. Then I switched to my other map(0) which is supposed to be my normal one for 91. This map runs fine with no issues, and I definitely see solid gains even if the map isn't specifically for 100. It pulls harder everywhere, and the power is even more instantaineous, like if you wanna jump out and pass someone, it takes off even quicker. Boost hits 16psi immediately and then will climb to 21psi if I really get in it....There's definitely good gains to be had, kinda curious to know if there's more to be had if map1 worked properly.

SCott48: Sounds like a mis-communication on which map is which. The one that runs to 21 psi should be the 100 oct. The no-boost map, is the Uni-Chip Corporate New 91 Octane map. BUT, instead of the theorizing here, why didn't you just give Jeff a call? WE are always happy to help. Give him a ring today, and we can get it figured out!

Chat then!
