New car on Tuesday ....Cited !

[keith]

What was the car like in standard guise whithout SC on? could see if the car performs the same without the map on.

[djhorace]

We never did try that, but from what I was told, the power delivery is as it should be when standard - nice and linear all the way to the red line.

[keith]

I aint no mechanic just wondering if there is a smaller issue when standard that is amplified when the car is mapped.

Is it possible to have Bluefin sent back and reloaded?

[djhorace]

You are maybe right, but the thing is that the car is doing what is asked of it. Specified boost is not over 1 Bar until after 4000rpm. I never did think to check the throttle position via vagcom when doing the logs though. I guess that would have been worth checking too in hindsight. Brain wasnt working all to well tonight though as I am pretty tired.

[garethmk1]

I believe that this 4000rpm boost symptom you are experiencing is as a result of Superchips "revised" map which makes for more traction lower down the range - I may be way off here - but seeing that makes me think that that may have been the problem with my original bluefin map. I asked them to revise it !!

Like I said I may be way off,

Regards,

Gareth

Al, do you not think it may be worth him trailing the Revo software and seeing if it has the same symptoms? Because if it does, then you can rule out a fault with the SC software and vice versa..

doubt very much its your dv valve its positioned in a different area on the ed30 KO4 away from the turbo so alot less likely to fail

my thinking is its the remap - this was one of the reasons i swapped to revo from superchips, the boost doesn't come on a until c4krpm then all hell lets loose which meant it felt quick but not very progressive -

i swapped to revo 2+ and it is alot smoother as the boost comes on gradually from lower rev's rather than one big hit at 4krpm

you should have a 28 day money back guarantee, using the handset switch back to stock get a trial of apr or revo and if its noticeably better then send the bluefin back

its a £20k car whats another hundred or so quid to make sure you are happy with it

ill see if i can find my data logs, im sure mine isnt as late as 4000rpm. Ill hunt my post of my logs when i find it.#

Our cars are both the same accept mines dsg.

Agree with Gareth at 1st thoughts as this sound like the tuned down version or the less aggressive map.

But ive just thought, my car logged with the Manual map with vRStu which turned out to be a duff map.

This was my initial thoughts on my bluefin, going back a while, whether yours is like this?

I found these from a Bluefin stage 1 Edition 30. They may be of some use.

[Phil Mcavity]

looks like you need to get superchips to send you another map. Looking at hedges post, actual and requested boost levels are completely differnt at the same revs, by some way on yours Subaru.

Al, do you not think it may be worth him trailing the Revo software and seeing if it has the same symptoms? Because if it does, then you can rule out a fault with the SC software and vice versa..

Yeah he could do I guess, but he would probably be wiser to see if Superchips can sort this for him before he jumps ship so to speak.

LOL, well it was a while back when i asked, i have sent an email of just in case, since i reset the ecu the near 4k limit is evident again, although its not in all gears from what i can see, i will see what they say and will see how it goes when the car beds back in
