Daily driving jb4 map
My car is a daily driver back and forth from work. I was wondering what map daily drivers use on jb4. And what others recommend?

I use map 5. As long as I don't drive like an idiot i get better MPG's then running map 0 or no tune at all. 26 without compared to 30 with it on map 5. I tried map 8 before on a road trip, didnt get any better and having no power is a safety concern to me.

I was on map 5 but decided to change it to map 2. I was thinking that map 5 is too much for a daily driver.

Map5 is an adapative map.. IT will adjust to your mods, temps, octane etc.
Its the safe route.. Set it to map5, do a couple 3-4 WOT pulls so it adapts 100%.. And leave it.. Switching to another map, erases the map5 learned adaptions. So remember everytime you switch maps away from map5, you have to re-adapt, 3-4WOT runs.

so is map 0 not recommended? its currently shitty road conditions here and i figured map 0 would be best as it would be stock, can anyone chime in and make suggestions. i think it would be rather sketchy for me to do 3-4 wot runs with the current road conditions.

custom map 6 daily that i run 11s with on 45% ethanol lol
like mike said any map can be modulated I get 27-30mpg on the way to the track on my track map, if i dont floor it, youd think the car was almost stock For your case i say map 5 When i leave for 2 weeks at a time for work, i fill it back up with 93, reset to map 5 do some pulls and the girlfriend drives it around for fun never had an issue on either setup

If you are tune/dci only map 1 and map 5 will be very similar.. Map 5 will autotune so some feel its "safer" although that means monday it may be stronger than map 1 but tuesday it could be a touch weaker.
The biggest benefit of map 5 comes when you start adding some E85

I’m being serious, cruise control @60-62mph no traffic.
The trip computer shows a minimum of 36mpg when if I fill up after freeway driving my range shows 550 miles, I can take a picture next time for proof. I’m at 446miles right now with 30% in town driving, and I have about 1.5 gallon left in the tank.
