Starting by finding out which ROM you're using. From there you decide which stage tune you want to use. W/ the DCI you can only run Stage 1 maps, so then you'll decide to either use Drive, Sport or Aggressive (requires 93 octane). After you decide which one you want from there, you decide the throttle mapping. Most people use Stock, others use Linear, and MT people sometimes use Alternative.

Add the map to your AP, flash your DME & enjoy

Got my cobb installed today, its a really wet day here so couldn't put much power down without wheel spin. But it feels great so far. Whats everyones favorite throttle map to use? Stock or linear or one of the alternatives.

Linear. Try them all and pick the one that fits best your needs.

Stock Throttle FTW. I switch between Sport (DD Map) and Aggressive (Weekend Fun, Burning Stupid G37 + S4 Drivers

)

Does is always take the same amount of time to reflash, or after the map has been loaded once its quicker?

ETS Michael · 06-05-2012, 07:23 PM

From what I've experienced it's the same time. I know on other platforms it seems the maps load faster, maybe the file is smaller who knows.

Really? I know the initial flash is long, but it seems like when changing maps it takes a good 10 mins or more.

Lulz_M3 · 06-05-2012, 07:37 PM

Takes 20-30 minutes for install on my car, about 5-7 for map change.

805beemer · 06-05-2012, 07:43 PM

When switching maps going from v301 to v401 it took my cars ~10 minutes. But if just switching maps that are the same version it only takes about a mintue.

This.

It depends on how much it has to rewrite.

Same here. Takes 1-2 mins to change maps/stages within the same major version number.

+1, going back and forth between Stage 1 Sport, Aggressive + Stage 0 (dealer visits) takes 1-2 mins on v301 Maps
