I've actually had to revert to the stock map until Jeff can help me sort it out. I hope he got my email, the stock map sucks so bad after getting used to his tune. It feels like I'm driving a Yugo.
Are you running a custom map that he emailed to you or are you talking about the calibrations that come with the AP?

The initial maps that come with the AP do not contain any fuel or timing adjustments...they only have MAF calibration adjustments. The point is to get your fuel trims as close to 0% as possible. Once that is done, you send MM data information about your AFR's at various loads and RPMS so he can forward you a custom tune.

If you have not gotten a tune back from MM and are using the calibrations that came with the AP there could be another issue.

I have not gotten a tune back from MM. The base stock map had my STFT at exactly 0%. I drove it for about 2 weeks getting the LTFT to sync up and wrote down my information to send to Jeff. While I was driving around I began experiencing extreme heat in the center console which is apparently coming from the cat. I swapped back to the stock RX8 map and the heat subsided... so there is definitely something different between the two. I'm getting the cat dropped and looked at by Mazda to hopefully get a replacement shortly, so I have to uninstall the AP anyway.

Sorry for the inconvenience and the hold up guys but the fix is now implemented and highly recommend everyone who has already downloaded this software previously should re-download this new fix for it.

If you have any questions let me know, thanks. =)

You have not kept up with MM requests - He has stated not to send him a PM. If you wish to contact him use the email address that is on his web site ap@mazdamaniac.com

Phil is right.
If your request is related to the AccessPort, his email is the ONLY way you'll get a response.

finally got around to screen capping the data log and sending info off... now the wait begins... how much of a wait should I expect? I seem to remember him being a bit behind/busy when I was following the thread but I've fallen behind since the start of school...

Hi Dan. We keep asking this question on here. When will access port be available for Europe? Any news? You have a big market out there.

Thanks.

Probably a while, unless he catches up with the backlog. I've waited 3 weeks now and nothing yet.

I'm just gonna take a while guess and say he's a bit behind. But I'm going to further make a blind *** guess and say his lack of posting on the boards is because he's been working on the backlog

Guys, one thing that we all need to remember is that Jeff does all this work on the side, it is not what he does for a living.

Jeff does quite a bit of travelling for his other 'job' and that often takes him away for days / weeks at a time.
SevenStock is also 1 week away so I assume he's helping out Ray with a few BHR projects for the event.

Patiently we must wait.

that doesn't make sense r0tor. Once you get the map that works for you, you won't need to change anything.

Patience is a virtue.

Patience is a virtue but waiting more than one month for reflash so you can have a check engine light off from having no-cat and so you can use another intake that you bought form BHR is really pushing it. That and the fact that the communication with jeff is very poor. Good thing Charles is there to back him up or I would have given up hope a long time ago.

I agree, a month is a long time, but hang in there!
