Things seemed to be fixed by the way Scalbert and Eugen posted, but then all the sudden he sells the Procede. I have mine out right now. I may have to just stay with v1.47 or v1.48 until this can be worked out. I need some reassurance here, as well as the rest of the Procede v2.0 users probably do. To be fair, I've never had one CEL or limp on v1.47.

I agree. Shiv will con't. to come out with better maps when needed.
One thing to take away from this is that one should pay attention to what Shiv states is the baseline settings. Boost creep, Spikes most should be fine as long as they are reasonable. If one is at the limit as far as detonation goes then it needs to be backed off. There is a difference between race cars and street cars. Race car if you blow the engine, burn a valve, etc then big deal you fix it. In a street car the consumer should understand what are the limits for their application. I believe Eugene wanted a system that was engineered to be like stock. This may not be possible without hardware changes like turbo sizing, wastegate changes etc. IMHO boost to 16psi with a target of 14 psi is no big deal. The supercharger crowd see our boost vary 4 psi or more just with temperature changes, and in general as long as we are not on the edge are engines run fine.
