Questions about Dynoflash
Questions about Dynoflash
I have been following the ECU tuning threads for quite some time and still can't make up my mind of which way I want to go.
1. Can dynoflash raise the boost or can it only slow down the tapering of the stock boost setting? WHY? I seem to have one of those lower boosting cars - although I have good power, I am only peaking 17psi. It would be nice to bump that up to 19-20 psi and hold it there. I don't really want to go the MBC or EBC route, I want the ECU unit to take care of this along with other parameters.
2. Does dynoflash tune the regular closed loop putting around maps or only the WOT maps? WHY? The tuning chips for VW/Audi also alter the everyday putting around maps. As a result, the fuel economy went up significantly on all the German cars that I have chipped.
3. Is it possible to buy the flasher and is it at a reasonable price? WHY? Well, not that I wish them bad luck, but if something happens to the Dynoflash company, I'm basically screwed. Can't revert to stock, can't keep on tuning, etc. I want to keep the stock maps around so that I can always revert to a stock flash (or other flashes that I might have on file) in case Dynoflash is no longer around. With the piggy back systems, you just unplug the thing or retune it yourself if needed. With a flash and without a flasher, you are stuck. I don't want to be that dependant on one company (and I don't mean it to be offensive).
Thanks.

Re: Questions about Dynoflash
1)No It can control the boost taper- the factory authority ranges is to blame
2)Dynoflash can control OL and CL weather or not AL does this I havent seen a rewritten code but the low range of his dynosheets does point to it.
3) Yes anybody can but the Techcom reflasher its less than 3K with the software - I dont know weather you have to buy it from a shop/tuner or can do it direct. AL has great customer srvice and will flash your Dynoflash back to stock for any reason- I bet if you worked with him he will reload your program for free or a nominal charge
Hope that helps

2 - we do not change the closed loop operation - the car idels at 14.64 a/f which is perfect
3 - There are several companies out there who can reflash you back to stock in the event that I am no longer in business which is not likely - including the manufacturer of the reflash unit itself. BTW - i provide FREE flashes back to stock for anyone anytime who has our reflash and then a free flash back to your modified flash which is kept on file.

Al, if I were to go w/ 660 (680cc?) injectors, would you be able to tune for that? Would I still have good everyday driveability? You mention that you don't mess w/ the closed loop functions. Is the factory programming able to compensate for the larger injectors? How large an injector do you think the factory programming can compensate for?
