Perfect Power Tuning Question (01 RS)
I recently put in 93 octane now instead of 89. I got a new map from rallitek for my PP for the 93 octane. I was running the car hard today and it just didn;t seem to get the power i should be getting. When i put the bridge in which it runs off stock ecu the car seems to be just as smooth/powerful. The PP running seems a little quicker but nothing noticeable enough for me to feel. Anyone have any maps they have for 93 octane on a 00-04 rs?
any input is appreciated. thanks in advance.

Did you reset the ECU after installing the map?

No I did not reset the ecu. I didn't think that was needed since the PP is a piggyback and changes the the signals. But, I will try that out today and see if that works.

how do you reset the ecu? I've been told to disconect the battery and wait for like 5 min with the lights on to make sure the electrical charge is completely gone, then just reconnect and start it up. I did that once but I'm not sure it did anything. I just got the entire exhaust done and have an intake and a crank pulley and it didnt change a thing. Maybe I'm doing it wrong?

i reset the ecu and it is still doing the same thing....my brother drove my car and we basically have the same mods except i have a high flow cat and the PP and he said that it felt a little more powerful but his reaction wasn;t great either....
seems like there is still something hindering the car from its potential |

There isn't that much more power to be had from the stock program on RSs. Depending on the year you probobly benifit from a little more timing and a little leaner fuel with the PP, send me a PM i'd be interested in exactly what maps they are running in there.
