Cheers for the help fellas. Any insights into whether keep changing the map with bluefin will have any longterm effects on the ecu?
Why do they call it rush hour when nothing moves?

It's nothing to worry about. The solid state EEPROM on an ECU bares no resemblance to a hard drive, they work in different ways. When you over-write it, you are doing just that, nothing is left behind. Each memory cell is cleared before being written too, this is why Bluefin takes a while to upload as writing to the chip isn't the fastest process in the world.
Only 250.1bhp - but with that noise, who cares?

^^^ Has anyone email SC to check the situation and reasons why they remain with only support for XP??

It's very possible that it's beyond SC's control. They just develop the software, I would imagine the handset is third party delivery system that they have licensed.

Also, of all the people who order Bluefin how many do you think actually run a 64bit OS on their home computer?

Hi, has anyone got the the original ED30 SC map power graph & the newer joint DSG/Manual power graph they can post?


Just been on to SC as both maps on my car appear to come in at 4000 rpm plus.

The newer map should bring in the torque from lower down, apparently.

Seem to remember someone else also having limited low down power? :scared:

^^^ Sorry, that was with Milltek on both Stage 1 and 2.

I will dig out the original stage 1 without Milltek later, that was 303bhp.

Which bits of the milltek did you need for the 1st map?

Did the characteristics change much?

Cheers :happy2:

Stage2 is for cars with Milltek full exhaust system and either sports or de-cat, plus filter.  We also have an Ed30 in tomorrow with this set up and an uprated pump with a view to going further with a Stage3…. Should be interesting J.



Email from Superchips this afternoon.

Any of you guys??? :grin:

How do you copy the remap from the handset to the PC, please?

Thanks,

You cant, just import the file from your bluefin software and it re flashes the file on the bluefin with your original & new map.

The files come from superchips & the software imports them
