Go look in the ECUflash forum. I believe some of Tephra's ECU patches allows this.

Well you're going to need quite a few things. You'll need to have Ecu controlled boost. This requires a JDM Map Sensor....same as USDM X MAP Sensor. You'll also need a Boost Control Solenoid like the GM 3-PORT. You'll need to Flash your rom with a couple of patches. First the Tephra v5.10 patch. Then you'll have to look up mrfred and check out his threads on ecu controlled boost and jdm map sensor mods.

It involves wiring a switch to your ECU. Look for the AltMap mods in the ECUflash forum.

You do not need a JDM/EvoX MAP or ECU boost control to do map switching....

If you have a laptop and a tactrix cable, you could carry around both maps and switch em when you need to.
