New VersaTuner performance tune
#51
Why is everyone caught up with total HP? All that truly matters is the delta before tune and after. I get it might have been a "sick" RX8 but is one to assume if you had a "healthy " RX8 there would be no gains?
I pick my R3 up this week with a brand new motor, RB header, BHR ignition and BHR midpipe. Once engine has a few miles I will dyno on local dyno with these bolt ons, then later with Versatune.

As I have mentioned elsewhere here, we had our brand new Mustang MD-500 AWD dyno delivered Friday. We are in the process of installing it. Once it's installed, we will start grinding out pre-built tunes. Each tune will come with a before and after dyno sheet done on a healthy car and on a properly calibrated dyno. No BS. No smoke and mirrors. Just real HP gains.

That's great!!!! You might beat me to it, the local dyno is a AWD as well ( linked) had to use it on my Fiat Abarth when tuning that little rocket!!!

fuel map for 25 pounds of boost
Any way you are able to create a 25 pounds boost fuel map? Our Cobb Accessport got stolen and we use 800cc x 4 with 2x 380cc injectors. Please let us know, thank you and best regards, mark angelo

We just got the car on Saturday. We need to do a health check and fix any issues, though it seems to run well with only 8k miles on a Mazda factory reman engine.

So does Versatuner require flashing an entirely new tune or can you modify only certain parameters of the stock tune? For example, increase the rev limit and leave everything else stock.

Smoking turbo yay
IIRC you can copy the stock map so you can roll back when needed. Then you can probably make another copy and go wild with it.
No point to just increase the rev limit without modifying anything else, unless you just want bragging rights. Torque starts to rapidly drop off after 8500 RPM stock and it falls off a cliff after 9k RPM. You also risk apex seals coming into contact with the housing(usually you have some oil film between the two).

It might be pointless on the street/track, but it beats riding the limiter or having to shift up and right back down in autox. The extra few mph in 2nd would be helpful on many courses with the shorter gearing on the series II cars. I still have warranty through 2019 so won't do anything this year regardless but I'm looking at options for 2020+ if I keep the car.

That tune was developed on a customer car (2010 R3) on a different dynamometer, not our shop car. The gains on your car should be similar to the graph at the top of this thread.
#71
You speak for 7 months of an update with your own RX8 and your own bench?
Have to conclude, that this new tune is not yet developed?
When can I hope to download it?
#73
Can you give us more details on the porting of this tune S1 / S2?
I see that you have indicated that the oil injection has been increased. The S2 already has an optimized lubrication system with more injectors.
Does the tune take into account the technical specifics of the S2?
Did you test this tune on your RX8 S2?

All of the relevant fuel, spark, and apv table changes are copied. The oil is only slightly increased at high load and rpm.
Our RX-8 is a S1. It has not been tested on a S2. These are not radical changes.
The tunes in our database are unlocked and can be viewed or edited by anyone with the full version of VersaTuner. You are also free to create your own tunes from scratch with the full version of VersaTuner.

how are you seeing the the Desired Engine Torque and calculated engine torque map being used for boosted applications? this seems like a Automatic only map, but is available in manual cars as well.
when do you think controlling the SSV opening perimeters will be available?
