Re: base map ???
 

yeah, I know but I cant afford it right now cuz I spet all of my money on the turbo stuff .

Re: base map ???

i'm not saying the shop didn't f#ck up...hopefully they didn't forget to put some timing retard in boost, but you never know when there could be a lean spot in a basemap, which wouldn't be there fault. a basemap is just to be able to drive the car out of boost to get it to the shop for a tune. did you even have 92/93 octane in the tank?

good thing you have a y7. if you look around good enough you can find one for $300 or less...possibly free. good luck on the next one and get it tuned first.

There isn't really a "kind" of basemap that you should have. You shouldn't have any at all for very long.

If you didn't have the money for tuning, then you didn't have the money to turbo it.

smartest thing posted in the EM section in a long time.

alot of people in my area just get there ecu's chipped and run on shitty ass basemaps while ruining there motors because they don't have money to get it tuned. always asking "why does my car idle and run like ----?", "because it isn't tuned". :1.

a guy i know was runnign a turbo b20 on a basemap scaled to 450's but had some 1gen dsm non turbo injectors in it (240's) and wondered why it would pop and sputter :S. also said that it makes a funny noise when he gets around 5000 rpm's, asked him if it sounded like BB's in a can. he said yep, so i told him what it was and that he should be running better gas and put his timing back to stock since he advanced it while it was NA. lol :-[.
