OpenFlash Tune logs
WHere are they? The OFT doesn't support it yet but logs can be taken with the bavarian technic tool.
THe stage 0 and stage 1 are described as being appropriate for stock hardware - why have two then? How are you supposed to evaluate which one is appropriate for your car? These maps are different and so logging must have been used in their development. Logging had to have been used for any map development. Why weren't these logs presented with the introduction of the device? I'm not trying to be a troll but this product has been out since 7/4 and no logs of what it is doing have been presented. I am seriously considering purchasing a tune in the very near future. At this price point the OFT is attractive. Not without more data however. |

- Boom, initial logging from OFT is being released hopefully this week. I would hold off on a purchase until you are satisfied with the data you want. A lot of these purchasers may not have a BT cable.
Me, i just want a way to get the extra fueling map for larger twin turbos to run in the background with procede map4 active. Half off Cobb sounds good to me. It may pay to hold off a bit and see what comes out and ETA's for enhancements. Every time I have bought something from Vishnu as an early adopter, I wish I had waited. Example, PWM meth kit had 4-5 hardware enhancements a few months after it came out. Last edited by scottp999; 07-23-2013 at 11:18 AM.. |

I get you. THanks for the advice. I just wish that Vishnu would release the logs they already have. I mean they had to have logs to develop the calibrations. Why not just post them up?

There is no point in them releasing what logs look like on their car. You need to see what they look like on your car.

Stg 1 is more aggressive than Stg 0. Both in terms of top end boost and ignition advance. We have run it on DCI-only cars on 91oct. Some cars are okay with it. Some cars are better with Stg0. If in doubt, and only have access to 91oct, run the Stg 0 map. When logging is enabled, you can play around with both maps and see what you can get away with. For those who get 93oct, you're just lucky. Plain and simple

Logging coming soon to OpenFlash is great. Most flash tunes can't even log, and most haven't come with any kind of logs when released. To be fair though, a tune can produce almost any kind of log since there is so much variation in other variables, such as ROM version, ambient temps, engine temps, altitude, dyno vs road, and so forth. Logging yourself under various circumstances is the only way to draw good quality conclusions.

Just Kidding, do not do that! You would be able to run more timing, but would need a race gas tune for that to get the increased timing, a procede might work to unless vishnu releases race gas maps. For most, its cheaper to just mix with ethanol and call it a day. |

Guys this is probably a dumb question.. But if there's st 0 and st 1 (st 0 for stock and st 1 for dci), is there an OTS map for a FBO car? Or do you just work off of the st 1 OTS map to suit a FBO car?

Make sure that it is UNLEADED before using it.

Yes, Cobb was the only flash tune that was able to log. However, even Cobb didn't provide any logs for their tunes with the release. So, you were not able to have much confidence on their OTS maps unless you logged yourself. A typical Cobb user doesn't log though...

The big rub from Cobb was how long it took to get ATR. People could log and desperately wanted to push the boundaries and experiment. The AP even had a 1/4 and 0-60 tool that you could use to measure performance gains making a dyno less necessary. It's the opposite with OFT. You can change the tune any way you want, you just can't what the results of those changes are. |
