Question N, R, S Flash explanations

Dear all,

I have read for XXth time the educative thread started by polak about the different ECU flashes the RX8 has had. The topics is currently in -closed- status.

The explanations cover up to "M" level and I was wondering if the thread could be reopened to be continued. Many rotary enthusiasts, including myself, will be happy to know what was/is behind N, R, S flashes.

Cheers

The next one I think after M or N was the R flash, it suppose to limit the ability of "free revving" the engine to certain rpm, in order to Prevent excessive heat build up. which might result in a fire(worst case)

S should be the one to fix the A/C rough idle issues. and the newest one, T flash is the next recall flash,it injects more oil during light crusing to prevent premature engine wear.

r helped more with flooding, and cannot rev over 4k for long periods of time if not moving...

s changed oil metering pump at light cruise and helped the ac at idle..

t i think is going to be a epa approved s flash for the recall.
