AP Mapz U Can Haz

i would just do 1-2 and 3-4. The tables i have are for 1-3. So 1-4 should be okay. I use 4 for cruising, but you could use 5 or 6. no big deal.
my throttle fuel is stock. that and the ve tables are my next projects. i'm still unsure about how the the throttle fuel tables come into play.
good luck. looking forward to your write up about it.

visiting the cobb website is sickening anymore... the MS3 and MS6 guys have about 15 Cobb maps they worked with cobb to develop, PLUS launch control and no-lift-shift features now...
instead, rx-8 owners get the "joy" of working with a blackhole

Yes...this is quite upsetting. Is it because there are more 3's and 6's?? I don't know...it's a **** off.

Meh, weird. I've found that experts on COBB and tuning are extremely hesitant to offer help and advice. I could post about just about anything else related to the 8 and I would be flooded with helpful hints, info, and opinions. But when it comes to tuning you get treated like a terrorist when you ask for help. When I first bought my COBB I knew nothing about maps, I simply posted a request for maps not knowing if there were any. Someone who will go unmentioned accused me of being a cheap a$$ trying to get maps for free. I figured a hefty investment in the COBB was enough, gimme the software damnit!
Well let's buck that trend. I'm tired of the COBB Stage 1 garbage map, kudos to Myriad for trying to change the tuning culture.

Also there isn't a lot of money to be made tuning rotaries so when someone does get ahead the only way they can make out is to keep their tunes secret. With the piston engine Mazdas they might be able to give away a lot of their work and still make money from the people who would rather get professional tuning than DIYers.
But huge kudos to everyone trying to help change the culture for the better.

No, because there are even fewer people willing to deal with direct injection and an ecu that varies boost by gears.
The difference is the MS community relies on Cobb to fix things and improve the maps (and then the information is spread) rather then the 8 community who funnels 98% of the problems through one person who has a vested interest in not spreading the knowledge he gains. Hence cobb themeselves are pretty much oblivious to how aweful the stage 1 map is because of a complete lack of feedback (which also has left them pretty much abandon the platform since whats the point is no one is complaining).

My RPM issue kind of sorted itself out. Probably just hiccups from the new map. Went away after a few hundy k's. I still can't help but feel there's more power available in there.

I'll start logging. I'm running your maps from the first post.
Q: What's the difference between the blue line and green line? Other than the obvious difference in AFR. I would assume blue is the way to go with the smoother curve.

Ah. I'm gonna continue to log and give your Baseline tuner a few cracks at her and I'll let you know what the end results will be. I should be able to crank out 200 whp with my setup.
