ignition ?
 
The last month or so ive been messing with crome gold it sucks. But ectune wont work on my comp anyway. The only way i get a steady idle is to take the ign values which the car reads from at idle turn them down from 16.50 to like 13.50 or 14 will this screw my map up at all or is it ok to do this. My fuel pressure for some reason is also at 50 psi with stock regulator since i installed a walbro 255. I tried the B&M regulator but that wont turn it down either. IN my dataloggs the injector pulse is irratic like 1.30ms the jumps to 2.12 the back to like 1.40 but with lower timming it holds steady.

Remove the B&M garbage. Get a B-series FPR, this is going to be real easy, the exit is visibly larger than your current one.

Your idle problem is 99% likely coolant level/coolant hose/TB related and not Crome's fault.

eCtune on a 500 Mhz P3 with 128Mb RAM got me on TV, why can't you run it?

You ever read one of my rants about using Vista to tune?

Dual boot your ---- if you have to have Vista, and don't use Vista for tuning.

Crome golds base timing is differant then crome pro.Their both at 16* but if you imoprt one from the other thing are off, Use a timing light to synch the distributor and you will be fine. From personal experiance crome pro timing maps don't import into gold very well. A timing light will tell you what you need to know.

What if you're dealing with a newer laptop that doesn't have XP drivers?
