Drivetrain The Official ALTA AccessPORT Thread
What is this "idle bounce" that is happening with the MCS? Is the only way to fix it with the AP?
Wheel or crank? What turbo/mods?
STI is a completely different beast

For some reason some Minis with our tunes are getting a fluctuating idle, we're working on it. I mentioned it a few pages back, but if anyone is having that problem, send me a datalog of it happening to maps@altaperformance.com.
Just got my accessport today. The thing is great. That I can find there really is not any real downside to it. Now my question is if there is a good deal to be had on a clutch kit when I get too happy with it and blow it up. Great job guys.
Got my accessport yesterday, pretty great upgrade. I haven't noticed a bouncy idle yet, but I have noticed that there is a similar issue w. my r55 S. As I am driving uphill, the torque seems to bounce while in partial throttle applications.
Other than that, it's been quite swell

I've mentioned this before. I don't have an AP yet but I do have a 200 to 300 idle bounce on my '07 MCSa.
The only thing that isn't stock is my Alta intake. Since I have the idle bounce and do not have the AP I think the issue goes deeper than just the AP.
I still want to get the AP but I can't justify it until I get a job and pay off some debts. Until then I'll keep reading this thread.
Of course I'd be willing to send you unaltered data maps if I had some way to do it

Mine does it from time to time and mine is a completely custom map...not from Alta. It's only done it since I've had an AP-based tune though.

You should definitely get yours before me - mine is now south of Puerto Rico - probably about a day from the Panama Canal.
