R-tech Remap.
bonelorry:
You now have to pay extra for the Switchable map option, I had it on my last Edition 30 as it was running 330LB/FT of Torque on the OEM Clutch so just in case it slipped I could select Map 4 which was circa 300LB/FT.
Thing is as already mentioned though I just ran the car on the Top Setting number 5 all the time, I would actually prefer not to have it switchable as it is a feature I would never use and always doubted that the correct map was set when I was driving the car.
On the 6R I have not got it switchable.

That's news to me. So you're saying during a normal drive the ECU will automatically switch between the 5 maps Niki's loaded? I thought things like knock detection and timing retard would be active within each selected map, rather than the map itself switching. What about the k04 2+ maps that don't get the switchable option?

I would have thought it's just the boost levels and N75 ramp rates that differ between the maps. Intake temps, water temps etc are all standard parameters the engine needs to function regardless of boost level.

Likewise. I just go for 'a map' and be done with it. I can't see any scenario in my daily driving where I'd want to turn the boost down, or run a standard map.
Dan_FR:
The only thing different in the 5 switchable maps is the boost(load) request and N75 mapping, this alone is enough to cap the mid range torque. Car won't change maps automatically.
Never seen the need to have switchable mapping even though I have Revo and the SPS device so have a lot more adjustability. Just dont be so heavy with the right foot at low RPM where the clutch struggles.
I do like the ability to put it back to standard power and even the valet mode if I ever have to entrust the car to a garage or anyone other than myself & the other half

Each to their own, it I often find map5 a bit aggressive for daily driving, I see this option similar to a 'sport' button
