Does that mean you like them? :?

Sorted a temporary map to use untill it get a RR'd

I found a map for a ctr but it was for the us version (the map had been dynoed for a AEM v2, dcrh and IMG) i know my brands differ but the mods are very similar so thought it was worth a try (obv checking the afr was safe with wideband)
Being a US map, it was not correct as they use wideband not narrow band, so i have converted it to narrow band (also enabling the secondary o2 sensor on closed loop)
and tested the afr which is safe. I also retained the stock euro ctr idle.

Just thought i'd post this map up, as i was struggling to find a euro ctr map with those mods, on my car it is noticably smoother and quicker so hopefully will be benificial to others too.

Details.....
vtec engagement 3900 and 5000
limiter 8800
stock idle 750
no launch control etc

If you decide to try this map yourself, keep an eye on the second o2 sensor and make sure under load it reads above 0.8v, anything above is rich (safe unless far to rich) any thing below is running too lean and should be adjusted.

Please PM if you want the map as i dont know how to put it up on here!!
