Hey Guys,
I was up at Dragway 42 tonight and got a chance to talk to a few members on here. Evolution[OH], it was nice meeting you. <------ great guy!
I had a buddy of mines car up, and the clutch went out, as well as another evos....
I know 4 guys from around here, Akron/Cleveland, that are in desperate need of new clutches!
I had a chance to "work" on an silver Evo 9. The owner's name was Chris (PM me if you run across this) who had a buschur 3" tb, buschur exhaust manifold, and intake. Car was running good (12.5's @110), but needed a tune. Chris said he had dyno time schedualed with AL @ buschurs later in may.
....I figured I would log it a bit and work on a few things. Car did not respond to added timing like they usually do (no knock in the logs, but not the additional timing I was adding either). Turns out I had the #1 HO Timing map open, and not the #2 as I usually work on.
The Ecu uses #2 at all times and interpolates between it and #1 or #3 quite randomly actually. (only evo 9s have 3 HO ignition maps, evo 8s have a High and a Low)
Many of the tuners out there are either replacing all three High Octane Timing maps with the same "tuned" map, or are just changing #2. I typically work with #2 and let the computer do its thing between the other maps, and will do so until the developers of the software figure out why and when the ecu chooses to interpolate.
I got some good data on the actual ecu process between these maps tho, and am excited about this new found info. Excited to use this to help you guys out.
Vendor Status coming soon....

Sounds like you, or someone on the forums needs to arrange a gorup buy through me!
Maybe we can arrange to have a mass-install day as well?
