Dicky Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I've got a 2004 de engine and was wondering what you can you ask for in the way of tuning options or is the UPREV a set package. Typically I've read you can have.. Limits removed from 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Max speed limit removed Tune to run lean ( to ensure good mpg) Can you make the map selectable to say keep the original settings then flip a switch for the UPREV settings. Any others you know of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dblock Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) You can have multi maps I think but I could be wrong. You don't run lean you just lean out the map if running rich. There isn't actually any limits In 1-3 but you can ask for how sensitive the throttle is. Edited November 21, 2012 by Dblock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I had read somewhere on the forum that only the upgrade cars could have selectable mapping from the controlled by the stability control switch ?

Niko Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I've had mine done by rs tuning. They told me that it doesn't get rid of any restrictions though 1 2 3 as there isn't any restrictions.

Mark@Abbey m/s Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 The 1st 3 gears are limited , the limit is in throttle response not opening %, i.e the butterfly response is slower in the lower 3 gears than in the upper 3 gears. UK DE cars (276bhp) cant have multi maps due to lack of space in the Eprom fitted in the ECU ( something to do with alarm immobilizer issues) Every other car if it has cruise added can have multi maps. Have a look around the Abbey threads everything is explained there. any questions thou PM or email me mark@abbeymotorsport.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dicky Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 I do travel with my laptop....... Unfortunately the exchange rate between southern pounds and Geordie pounds isn't very favourable. It's probably cheaper for me to do a 1000 ml round trip and stay overnight rather than have a very expensive engineer do the same. Also I don't think you southern softies could handle the women up here. Cos if you happened to go to the "Toon" for a bevy while your here and they found out your a well endowed (financially speaking) southerner with loads of dosh (as we poor people up here know you all have) they'll be after your body faster than you can say .....UPREV . Now lets face it......who would want to endure all that for the sake of tuning my car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark@Abbey m/s Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 We could sort a deal if a few lads wanted to get together and travel down for tuning/servicing. get some numbers together and we can work a deal out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
