* slowly evolving post, will be changing when more instructions are written! *
Hi All,
I am now up-to version 5 of my mods, here are some details:
Due to the nature of flashing and changing your ECU I suggest you ask plenty of questions before doing it
as I can't and wont be held accountable for what happens to your car.
In this patch you get:
- 2 levels of knock cel flash
- some ICS mods
- map switching (timing/fuel/boost)
- no lift to shift
- valet mode
- rear o2 simulator (not heater)
*No Lift to Shift*
Allows you to shift without letting off the throttle - if you do it right it keeps boost up and puts less load on the transmission/driveline.
Enable No Lift to Shift? - Controls whether to enable or disable the NLTS code.
NLTS RPM Drop - When the other conditions are met the ECU will apply a revlimit of 'shift rpm - drop rpm'.
NLTS TPS Threshold - What TPS is required for NLTS to active the revlimit
NLTS Speed Threshold - What is the minimum speed you must be travelling at to enable NLTS - basically allows you to slip the clutch on launch
NLTS Load Threshold - What is the minimum load for NLTS to activate - for the down-shift blippers!
NLTS Testing/Prerequisites
1) Check your TPS extends to 100% when the throttle is flat down, make sure it doesn't reach 100% before you are at WOT
2) Follow the below test proceedure so you get an idea on how NLTS works
* flash a "test" rom, with speed threshold = 0km/h, load threshold = 0, tps threshold = 20%, rpm drop = 800
* start car, DONT DRIVE, put car in Neutral.
* rev car upto 2000rpm
* put foot on clutch - KEEP FOOT ON GAS
Car should almost stall but then bounce of a revlimit of about 1200rpm
If you do this test you will get an idea of how sensitive your clutch pedal is; a lot of people say they have
problems, most problems come from the super sensitive clutch pedal by resting you foot ready to shift.
* Alternate Maps *
Allows you to switch low+high fuel+timing, injector scaling and boost maps (bwgd and bdel) on the fly without reflashing.
Currently there are two methods to switch maps, either by holding down your Auto ICS button for a predefined period
of time OR, for EVO's without ICS, wiring up a switch to a spare input channel.
Obviously you need to configure your "alternate maps" with the settings you want. Don't forget to configure which
switching method you want (Enable Alternate Maps Master? ADC0F=1, AutoICS=2).
* Various ICS mods * (Only applies to ICS equipped Evo's)
Restore ICS State on Ignition? - Sick of AutoICS being turned off when you turn the car off?
Enable Manual ICS Linger? - Dont want to hold down the manual button?
Manual ICS Linger Time - How long to keep spraying after you release the manual button - dont set this too high or you will burn your pump out.
Enable Spray ICS on Knock? - Pretty obvious, only works when AutoICS is "on"
KnockSum Required for Spray - Ditto
Load Required for Spray on Knock - Ditto
Spray on Knock time - Ditto
* Enable RearO2 Simulator? *
This replaces the input of the Rear02 with a software simulator, you still need to have the heater circuit
connected but it allows you to wireup something *else* (WBO2??) to it.
*Valet Mode*
So you want to let someone else drive the car but you are worried they will flog it, just hold down the throttle @ 100% (while the IGN is ON, but the car is OFF) to toggle valet mode.
Essentially you get a lowered revlimiter, you can set it too whatever you want.
Auto Valet mode means it automatically does the revlimiter on "fresh ignition" this is good for thieves - set the limit to 0 and the car wont start.
XML instructions
So in the .zip file there is the actual ROM (.bin) and an XML file. You want to copy/paste the text from the XML file INTO your EcuFlash definition file (C:\Program Files\OpenECU\EcuFlash\rommetadata\mitsubishi\evo\ 88580014.xml).
Just make sure you copy/paste it to before the </rom> at the end.
Normally I include a pre/post 1.30 XML extract, I have removed this in favour of getting YOU to change the endian!
+++ REMOVE ANY OLD XML YOU HAVE +++

These are old instructions but should provide a pretty decent starting point

FINAL BIG WARNING
Whilst I have tried to test everything as much as possible it is up to YOU!!! to test each feature before driving your car around! If you notice any WEIRDNESS (including EcuFlash showing funny values for things) please post up so we can help you!
