Thread: Its Arrived!

So what's the go.

I'm interested in what or if you asked for a tune. I get the impression the sellers kind of make out they can deliver anything. However what I ask for they said they can't do. So I'm puzzled what people ask for.

I look forward to hearing how the installation went.

I detect the essence of fried clutch and rattly mains in the future....

I haven't had a Wonka bar for years

Wait, you bought a Wonka bar and got a Bas Box?

And what did you ask for?

From what I have read and understand the figures quoted are the average Joe's tune figures. They can squeeze more out of it if you have other mods and monitoring gear. I will be pretty much asking for the safest/economical tune he can cook up. I'm not after a rocket ship. Id just like to change gears less... wait wait wait... That's a cop out. I just want more power to climb slippery hills in high gears :P

This is also an issue to be fixed. Squeaky EGR.

Grilling the first clutch in a 4wd is all part of the bonding process

I'm not sure what people expect from a remap, but it doesn't miraculously turn a Tdci into a TdV8...

You ask for a map that suits your application and below is the list I sent to Pete at BAS:

60% of the time as an on/ off road tourer towing a trailer not exceeding 1.2 tonne.
20% of the time for recreational off roading - sand (beach and dunes), rocks/boulders and clayey mud.
20% of daily driving in traffic and motorway use.

What ever the process for mapping the car is, I got the modified file back and its perfect for my application.

Keeping my same driving style I've noticed the following:

1. Almost a liter less per 100 km on consumption.
2. No flat spot anywhere through the gear range.
3. A LOT more power on tap when on the open road - less time in the oncoming lane when overtaking
4. Engine running a lot cooler (cylinder head, coolant and EGT)
5. No issues (noise, rattle or squeak) from the EGR

The list goes on, but I'm not exerting the engine, riding the clutch, racing off at green lights or any of the things you can do with a normal map as well. I'd imagine I'm past the age where I want and need light to light drag power and performance.

My car's happier (smoother and quieter), I'm very happy with the drivability and in my book its an all round win.

Maybe its easier to damage the car if you want to do so, but I fail to see the point of the "opposers" in relation to the way I utilise the remapped car.

Cheers,

Lou

Done! Now the waiting begins.

Why doesn't he work at 1:58AM !?

For the record I had terrible trouble following the instructions. Then I just did it my way and it happened in minutes. Im wondering if the instructions on the site are a few versions old?
