Me neither as i've seen all kind of setups and improvisations and in some cases the Td5 can run quite well even with the wrong tune, a while after i bought mine in 2007 and knew nothing about it i found oil in the ECU plug and when i removed the cover i realised that it was fitted by the PO with 2 green tops and 3 black ... then my maniacal obsessive-compulsive research has begun... and it's perpetual

my insistence is on how they left the factory and all Eu2s had 2 track pedals and Eu3s 3 track while these 2001 "hybrids" had Eu2 fuel map in the MSB101330/340 as you confirmed earlyer while on the first modells the pedals were 2 track(set to 3 in the ECU), 3 wire airbox sensor, green top injectors which afaik need Eu3 fuel map to run perfectly and the Eu3 map was originally configured for the 4 wire airbox sensor with temp input

Did a quick .csv, because I managed to get my emulator to recognize a new sd card reader. If theres anything I specifically need to do for your perusal let me know.

TINS02.CSV

Tighten the wastegate rod one thread at a time untill it overboosts then one back... if no overboost the turbo cartridge might be worn... or wastegate stuck open... or there is a boost leak(that would be revealed by the airflow reading which on your's is disabled)... or it's underfuelled for some reason... in a nutshell: you need a bit more boost

I wound it up a turn and a half to get the boost up from.86 to 1.13ish but it doesn’t seem to want to go higher when I turn it more. I was a little nervous to go more. Might save up for a hybrid.

those were the figures reported by the nanocom prior to the csv recording

Better fit a proper ECU cos it might be the main issue... i don't trust that bodged ECU at all, remapping this one it's silly IMO
