Recieved a list of softwear updates from Andrew Nauman from MoTeC, you may find the ones relating to the RX8 interesting.

Mazda RX-8 Support

Added Digital Input function 23 and Aux Output function 126 for Mazda RX8 Oil Metering Pump (OMP)

Added Digital Input function 26 and Aux Output function 127 for Mazda RX8 Auxiliary Port Valve (APV)

Can one of you wiser rx8 owners please explain?

Here is my interpretation:

While it doesn't specifically say which MoTec product it is, I suspect that have added built in support for there replacement ECU to monitor/control the Oil Metering Pump, and the Auxilary Port Valve. By this I mean it gives the "tuner" the ability to monitor and change the bahaviour of these 2 devices that are "new" to the RX-8, and have not been specifically supported in earlier products or releases of their firmware.

Cheers,
Hymee.

Thanks chief

also, any motec system can be upgraded by typing in a serial number to un-lock features. So i dare say that these features will be available in all models from now on.
