New v4 Firmware is up!

AltecBX · 01-31-2010, 04:29 PM

You know what happened. I pulled over in a gas station to connect my laptop for logging before getting on the highway. I changed "0" to "1" in the valet mode and changed the speed limiter to "1" as well.

Seeing you can't tell the difference between being tuned and stock, you should sell your Procede and make some money at least! Win Win!

it works fine with 93 octane (no meth), my logs have looked great

Just to clarify, as stated in the documentation, the "+" signifies nothing more than less top end boost taper. Nothing to do with methanol.

The only methanol-related suggestions has to do with Stg 4 which targets 16.5psi peak boost, which is a bit too much to support on pump gas consistently. The Stg 4+ version is the same but, again, with slightly less top end (6000rpm and up) boost taper.

LOL. I do notice the difference. I rarely WOT the car, I did it for logging purposes. The car felt great and powerful even in valet mode. Ever since I installed v4, I have been driving around the city at low speed, with instant power and better response since v3 and obviously stock. When I get a chance, I'll change the value back to "0" and do more data-logging with Map1 activated.

Shiv

can you somehow make it so we can see more that the 4 main guages on the front main page?? it would be cool to see many more at the same time

like make them customizable..

+1
Also make the red needle on the gauges a little longer.

Currently u will need to keep future use 1 set to "1" to enable the remote relay. Same as you did with v3/meth.

Shiv

i loaded the new firmware and set future use 1 to "1", but everytime I press "ON" on the remote... it would switch to map 2. I thought the remote only turns the methanol kit ON or OFF, and it has nothing to do with map switch function now. my v4 does not switch back and forth b/w map1 and map2 automatically... my map auto switch function seems not to work. Did I set anything wrong?

Meth switching really hasn't been tested with v4. This is because we are in the process of converting it over to a progressively mapped tune. One that gradually slides between a pump gas map and a meth map based upon measured methanol flow (ml/min). If you want to run v4, might as well disable your meth for the time being. We should have the new progressive mapping feature within a week or so.

shiv, just outta curiosity, i'm running stage 3 AT 1-22 map now and although my target boost is 15~16psi, i rarely even hit 15 psi since i don't push it until red line as my car is super fast as is. just wondering if i try stage 4, will i expect to see much gain on most of driving on pump gas? i doubt i will ever be hitting over 16 psi anyways... but thought i'd ask...

so you are running Stage 3 without the intercooler? how's it working for you? I am so tempted to run Stage 3 but without DP in place I'm hesistant.

Why not working the other way around:

V4 control the ammount of methanol it needs for top performance and reliability:
send a signal (variable DC%) out of procede to control the flow of the pump. And with a small extra module integrating the driver mosfets, it could connect directly to the pump without an extra meth controller.

Not let a basic meth flow controller based only on the boost to control the meth...

Ferre86 · 02-01-2010, 09:56 AM

on maps 1-22 should we leave the O2sim modifier %100 default or able to change if it require?

jpsimon · 02-01-2010, 10:58 AM

you can change it, I've had it set at 50% with no codes thrown.

can the V4 be set up to have 3 maps...
1) moderate boost 12-13psi tracking map,
2) high boost 14-15psi, and
3) 16 psi for race maps.

We are waiting for somethng like this. They are working on new user software. It should be 3 maps + an additional race/meth map.
