RRM Piggyback V2 installed!!
I just figured out something that will help everyone thats having the rough idle problem. I know a lot of you bought the version 2 piggy because you can use 89 octane but thats exactly whats causing the rough idle.
I only know of two maps so far so heres the results with different octanes and maps.
89 Octane w/ "smoother idle map" = slight misfiring at idle and randomly dips to 200-300
89 Octane w/ "rougher idle map" = more misfiring at idle and rpm dips to 200-300 much more frequently
92 Octane w/ "smoother idle map" = never tried this combination yet
92 Octane w/ "rougher idle map" = unnoticeable misfiring at idle and rpm NEVER dips to 200-300
The last one is the one that im currently using now. This combination has the most power in my opinion. The power comes on much earlier than the smoother idle map and there is very little engine movement. The power and smoothness while driving is worth the extra ten cents at the pump. Hope this helps some of you.

my CEL light seems to come on once every fill up, about 7 starts later it magically dissapears (no im not turning my car on and off im not an ***) but im glad to hear this is suppose to happen, i was about to take it in or mess with the map

ROAD/RACE
ver interesting, I may need to try a fill up of 92/93 next time I have a chance and see if the misfire is still there or as noticible. Also if there is more power it may be worth it, but I may make a stock map to load up if gas keeps going up like it has been. eek! keep up the good work, I want to see some more of these maps haha.
5 speed =) oh and i dont know if it matters but each time i changed the octane i relearned the piggy... never tried changing octane without relearning it.
