Thanks for the update - I'll keep working it; for now I have no real complaints except for scaling the MAF - which I can do without volts BUT... the right way is to use volts since that is how the table is configured.

I have a 5MT (4port) EUDM RX8 and I was wondering if by using the Pro Tuner I could do a couple of things to my RX8 (since the product page is not very informative):
a) Alter the redline limit (increase it probably)
b) Smooth out my rich AFRs (low 11s, trying to increase mileage and HP output)
c) Alter the kick-in/shutdown temps of the fans
d) Increase the idle
e) Toy with IAT (although I really don't want to do anything serious with this)

I understand from these posts that (b), (c) and (d) are OK, but what about the others ?

I have also sent an email to Hymee about getting the Tuner and I am waiting for the good news....:p:

You can do them all.

I need a CAL-ID out of one of them so I can have a look.

Cheers,
Hymee.

I'll play the dummy. What's a CAL-ID? I'm interested in this for my 09, so I would gladly lend a hand.

It's like a software version number of the calibration in your cars "computer" aka PCM (Powertrain Control Module) or ECU.

You can read it with a scan tool, just like you can read the cars VIN number electronically.

Also, if you remove the cover from the PCM, there will be a label on it with a number like N3J6 or something like that. Take a pic of it and send it to me if you want.

Cheers,
Hymee.

What is the all motor HP gain over stock with the Hymee?

I got 14 WHP last night.

I didn't know there was even a claim that the tuning package made more hp? of course it will with a good tune up, so I reckon those 14 horses are all due to your fine tuning :ylsuper:

Kane 05-03-2009 06:12 PM

Yeah but most of our discussions are based on FI; I just didn't know if anyone was messing with the Hymee in NA mode. And if so what areas they noticed were jacked?

Hymee pro tuner on N/A

I've had the pro tuner for around a year, and I'm N/A, and it'll pretty safe to say that I've had some good gains.

Hymee 05-08-2009 05:08 AM

Of course any gains to be had are the bragging rights of the tuner, not the software! I'm just providing a tool, you guys are the smart ones :)

Cheers,
Hymee.

Turn them off.

What do you mean? The Hymee thing turns off CELs, doesn't it?

Brettus 05-08-2009 04:45 PM

I'm sure it does - if you know what you are doing ....

Wait. I'm confused now.
Aren't you tuning your car with this thing?

Brettus 05-08-2009 04:55 PM

sure - just don't know how to turn off the Cels

Hymee 05-10-2009 03:30 AM

Tuning = YES.

Ignoring potential important warnings = NO!

It has not been a requirement of mine to do this. I don't need to mask any CELS with the blower. When I get time and enough need to mask the CEL's I'll add that bit in. It hasn't been a concern for anyone so far.

Cheers,
Hymee.

So, you haven't had any customers wanting to turn off the CELs for the CAT or the rear O2 sensor?
How about the completely superfluous P0300/301/302?
Or the P225x for those without an airpump?
Or the P2401-07 for the Pettit owners?

It is for me - I'm sure there are others as well . I have tried to figure it out but don't even know where to look amongst the 550 or so possible places it might be ....

Any updates on this software? Just purchased a used pettit sc system and thinking of going with the pro tuner as my choice of engine management.
Hymee, have you had any pettit sc customers?
Has the CEL masking feature been added? Will have a midpipe.
Do any base maps come with the pro tuner? Would like to experiment a littler NA before I start experiment with boost. I know you have some base maps for you sc, do you think they will work with the pettit sc?
Thanks

I'm sure the protuner will run the Pettit kit just fine with Hymees' base map - boost is boost .
The Cel blocking thing has not been addressed as yet - hopefully he will get onto it .

Macius8 06-10-2009 09:15 PM

Great. Another question. I'm a total newb when it comes to tuning. May know how a few things work but never tuned anything in my life. How's the difficulty of learning all the basics, adjusting you own maps, etc. Have any of you started on the pro tuner? Anyone I can constantly bug for help when it comes to the pro tuner? LOL
