I think, once again, that one of the first things that could really help in here is to have someone like Jack_of_Trades (or similar member like nj1266) to moderate this part of the forum. IMHO, there is a REAL need for some general housekeeping in here. Also, this forum could possibly make good use of some sub categories: EvoScan, EcuFlash, Tuning, General setup, Latest Advancements, etc.

ps - I haven't changed the MUT_TABLE yet so you will need to manually add the 1byte...

If you just want to switch from the 0008 to the 0014/0015 there should be no problems assuming you follow the right steps...
I have it donwloaded, I have it ready, but what's the right way to switch????

Copy/Paste 015 into my 008 file?!?

That's what I'm not sure about, and I really want to try V5!!!

forget your 08 rom, load the 15 rom and copy all your maps from your 08 rom into the 15 rom.

if this is your first tephra mods experience get someone to help you

apparently smoggy

still - treat is as though it hasn't been tested.

take the usual precautions and run through the usual basics tests before lead-footing-it

I'm having a good time with 5.8, but I still haven't played with many of the features. NLTS is one the top priorities, but I'm starting to run out of free time.

One thing that I could use is a link that explains how to use all the features.

you got it ... though at this moment it is considered "Untested" compared to say 014 which has been tested. So go ahead and test it for us >;-)

To get lean spool enable/diable and to remove my EGR trouble codes and in 5.8, can I add the following tables? I copied straight out of my old 94170008 rom.

<table name="ECU Periphery0" category="Misc" address="faa" type="1D" level="1" scaling="Hex16"/>

<table name="ECU Periphery2" category="Misc" address="fca" type="1D" level="1" scaling="Hex16"/>

<table name="Lean Spool Enable " address="1681" type="1D" level="1" scaling="uint8"/>

<table name="Lean Spool Disable" address="1685" type="1D" level="1" scaling="uint8"/>

56DA is the value for table Periphery0
0DDF is the value for table Periphery2
48 is the value for the lean spool enable
48 is the value for the lean spool disable

Worth a try? I just worry that the 0008 and the 0015 roms are too different...
What is the proper way to disable lean spool? Disable it by setting the enable/disable to the same RPM or by disabling it in the periphery bits? Thanks

The one thing that I don't like about the Tephra patch is the requirement to hold the gas pedal down with a fresh ignition in order to start the car.

I have an Exedy Triple Carbon clutch that is a real workout to use and I stalled the car a couple of days ago. I caused a traffic jam and missed the green light having to turn the car off and hold the gas pedal down waiting for the slow CEL to restart the car.

How do I completely disable this feature? I changed the "1s" to "0s" for both Valet options in the Tephra mods map in EcuFlash and then the car wouldn't start no matter what.

Am I the only one who can't seem to figure out how to disable the start up function where you have to depress the gas pedal?

Silver Evo, please, get us informed.
