I hear there is a way to keep the engine from dying after you save your changes ot a UTEC map. How is it done?

Give it a little throttle but don't go over 1500rpms :lol: I am not kidding.

Maybe there's a more sophisticated way and that's probably what you're looking for LOL! If there is a way I'd like to know too. On my car, I can save maps and it doesn't stall. Of course that might have something to do with the blow through MAF ;)

As soon as I hit save I give the throttle a little blip. Works well.

I have that 2.

Thanks guys

I figured out the same. Rev it up slightly before you hit save.

Do as they say.................

Have you got the basic scaling functions (the 0% area) tuned pretty well? Mine wanted to stall before I tuned it the other day. I also have a cable TB vs your DBW TB. That might make a diff to as I've got mine bumped up slightly with the adjustment screw (I'm guessing the DBW doesn't have that?).

my WRX never stalled on map save
My STI stalls almost every time if I dont goose the gas a little as I hit save

Yea, I often scan, and will make minute changes, while sitting on the shoulder of the road, and the car never stalls when saving. It does bog a lil, and the rpms jump a lil.

I think that on the sti's its the electronic throttle that doesnt react fast enuf, and thats why it dies.

Mine died once, the diference was that I have some 41's on the timming map. It always stalls when I save a map.

Yep, the goose of the go pedal is the ticket. :)
