Mazda RX8 R3 2009
Ok so I have just had my car rebuilt with Atkins internals, full street port, using new d585 coils and 8.5mm leads, toyo decat and rear box baffles and air box walls removed from standard.
Now.....
Mazda edit + tactrix
Or
Versatune
To suit my engine and parts added/customised?
Looking for optimum safety and running day to day, whilst along side best performance for my mods.
Very little info for the seriesII and verstune but I have just stumbled across it myself.

Much appreciated sir.
One last question for the others in this thread. What is everyone reading for their idle maf voltage?
My car seems to sit at 1.18v ~ 4.9g/s ... looks like per all the tuning threads (putting maf scaling aside) we should be sitting closer to 1.21v ~ 5.5g/s

nah , it's just an order of the maps, like Map A, map B, map C, etc
the ? is when the coder wasn't sure if it is the right one.
but even if it doesn't have the ?, sometimes it could still be wrong, the Fan on temp on S2 is one great example, luckily I noticed it, and asked epifan to find the correct one.
yeah, that's why I gotta make sure it IS indeed the right map. Im leaving it alone for now and will check it out this coming Wednesday

With the sump itself I did the same as the guy in PR ( cut off the excess and welded in an aluminium plate , with the sump cover I left it original as it were ,just made an adapter to mate it with the sump I modified . Fits really good, no leaks so far .

At this point in time, is there any prevailing opinion for MazdaEdit vs. VersaTuner? Any advantages to using an Openport 2.0 with either vs. the DrewTech Mongoose cable that comes with the VersaTuner package deal? The Mongoose looks like the more professional-grade bit of hardware.

Honestly we haven't heard feedback from too many people that use VersaTuner. It was great when i was testing it before it was released, but I think only 1 or 2 people are actually using it here. MazdaEdit has been getting more feedback here. Great software, but I wish the developer was easier to get a hold of.

I just contacted a shop around here called tach motor works. They told me they could tune my car with an AEM FIC (fuel/ignition controller). Does anybody know if this would be a good option? My current mods include catless midpipe to RacingBeat CB.

Have you had a dyno with Air/Fuel Ratio readout? That would tell you how close you are now. If you are not close, then you have a baseline for future changes to be sure they improve performance.
