Bluefin Remaps - Do they 'learn' or settle down???
« on: March 08, 2009, 04:22:32 pm »

Have done a few hundred miles now since installing the SC map on my manual Ed30 and something has changed. When I first uploaded it the 'spooling' effect when the turbo came on song was incredibly noticeable. I had never noticed the turbo coming in with the stock map... the power delivery just seemed completely linear. Now the remap feels the same - I don't feel the 'turbo effect'. This is so noticeable that initially I thought that the turbo wasn't doing its thing, and worried something had gone wrong (DV perhaps?) but in fact the extra power is still there (I think... certainly it's still much stronger than standard, but without the 'kick' it's hard to tell if all the original extra power is there) it's just being delivered differently.

Is this normal? Does the remap change over the first few hundred miles, or should I get this looked into?

Thanks,,,

the car does learn how you drive, but are you sure your just not getting used to it also ?

i was wondering with mine, they remap it then put it on the rollers... but surely the ecu will do some learning and need to settle in...

I dont wish to sound rude chaps, but its probably going to anyway, But if you look up a few inches there is a sticky thread for re- map questions. Could you guys try and post in this so we can read all relevant info in one place.  :smiley:

Sorry... I'm obviously a dunderhead... I did try to start the new thread in the right place but the 'new topic' option wasn't available.

My apologies.

No probs Shaun  :happy2:  all you have to do is press reply, and if you wanted to be really helpful you could put at the start of your post. This is a new question  its not perfect but after a while most questions will be answered for you before you have to post.  :drinking:
