Going to go down another rabbit hole to see what diy options exist, already have the canbus cable coming to let me use some windows software to poke around.

Trust me, I'll do extensive research before changing anything


What the cable can do, comes with in inpa software CD

I started getting into that on my Meanstreak 1500. But then I fell in love with the BMW R1200GS. Now it’s in the garage waiting for me to fall back in love. Lol

Lorenzo/mario kart just got back with me, wow one day reply is always a good sign

This is the tool i need to download the ECU dump, and to do the flash with the new file after they do their magic, interesting

So, I got curious and poked around a little. What you are wanting to do looks to be a lot more doable than I realized. Pretty neat. Especially, if you think you're going to get results worth the investment. I didn't compare it with the scanner you shared, but I think this might be another option (along with a pc). I have no idea how the two compare. The one you researched may be much better, or they may be similar:

TOPDON RLink J2534

I've been researching more and more as well. It looks like if i want go the diy route, I'll need the ECU dump with one of these tools like you showed, which is always raw binary and sometimes encrypted. It appears there are a few software solutions to change mappings like fuel air ratio, timing, etc.. but what is needed and most critical is a "definition file" or a file that tells the software where in that raw file the mappings are so you only mess with that and leave everything else as is.

I can't seem to find any definition files on the up and up web, and may have to search some nefarious places, i found one such source but not sure about the legitimacy.

Then if i use an incorrect mapping file, make changes and flash that I'm fucked and hopefully a reflash of the original dump restores the ECU.

Makes me nervous for sure.

Mario route wants me to buy the device i showed which is only a "slave" tool that only lets him see the file, and he wants $700 to do the "tuning" remotely. But all the forms swear this guy is the only one to trust for this type of remote tune.

I'm also contacting some local shops that specialize in BMW tuning to see if they can do anything on site, this one shop did the tune on my jetta and i loved it, it was an APR tune.


I don't have an extra $1k right now to do it the easy way, so i have some time to look around, just want to get it all lined up so when I'm ready to do the downpipe i can get it coded.

Don't know shit about this, but cool, let's go vroom vroom.

I had a 2015 2.sl0w standard jetta

Slow standard Jetta???
That's what i had, 2015, not even the gli, did cold air intake, upgraded turbo inlet and outlet pipes, intercooler pipe, turbo muffler delete, tuned, was really pushing it, got out of three chases from the men in blue in that thing lol

Here's a little video of me smoking a 350z in the Jetta
Stock turbo gets around 12 psi on a good day, i could hit 19psi in the winter that was there at only 3000 rpm in sport mode

Vroom vroom is right lol
she was a true sleeper

PS the torque would eat up some drive axles, they didn't last long, went through 3 in 5 years

Man i miss her...

chop chop
vacuum vacuum
freeze freeze lol

picture overload!!

could have done better with her, really just let it ride the past 3-4 weeks without a change, nonetheless the buds could stick to a wall they are so crazy sticky














not bad yield for two plant system on a budget (will ride this free light out until she dies, won in a contest from the old site)





indent from return pipe, maybe over-vegged? lol
biggest root ball yet, literally took up all the volume in grow bucket, and then occasionally reaching into the epicenter bucket with danglers, absolutely zero root matter in bucket when this came out, all intact and alive and strong.
that hole was where the pumped return comes in (fallponics) and the roots swallowed the air stone lol
i throw them out after each run anyway so no need to go searching in there


first time i ever hit image max (20) got a warning lol

 

[ninjadip]

a day or 2 cycling some bleach through system, scrub walls with iso, then it's go time!

next ones are ready to go:

Great grow man! Why am I getting a craving for spaghetti?

I see a lot of hash in your near future.

No joke... you can eat those roots.

I had a buddy with me, last harvest, and he said they looked like lo mein so I took a bite out of the whitest roots...

I was pleasantly surprised and will likely take a bite next harvest as well. Throw some in a bowl with a few leaves and some ranch and you got yourself a tasty treat

Thanks brother! Funny how only a 1/4 strength of that rapid root goes a long way, i even stop using it halfway through flower

I'm hoping i get a good yield, seems like good shit for hash, super sticky. Next weekend I'll give the ice hash a go, for the first time

The tap roots broke the other net cup, it made the whole cup bulge out at the bottom like a bell, crazy. That pic of roots was from the smaller plant. I'm pretty sure I have some spare net cups somewhere, so i just tossed it.

Healthy plants, for sure. That trunk damn near swallowed your whole rockwool cube.

The roots never cease to amaze me. By FAR my favorite part of hydro.

Car fun today
Cold air intake, oil catch can, rear speakers, new antenna seal gasket. Speakers are Memphis audio

Up next, huge over sized intercooler, coming tomorrow, but won't have time to do until next weekend. Did a lot of research and learned the difference between fin vs bar and plate design, really happy with my research before the buy, saw logged data from various ones, cheap ones will raise intake temps, good ones will get temps below ambient!!! I got a good one coming

The black thing on the hood is connected to the hood scoop

into one elapsed video

could never handle that many files or size with most GUI video editing software, at least everyone i tried crashed, too much overhead. I don't need to edit just concat/combine them all while speeding up the frame rate to 8000

final output a little shy of 4 minutes

Very cool man. Enjoyed the music too.

Psst…I swear I saw the gnome move man!

And so the mini trouble begins,i was warned. Thermostat failed yesterday, got to test if head gasket ok, i think it should be, it didn't get past 250f for more than a minute, i believe the thermostat never opened, took about 10 minutes to overheat...
Of course you can't just change the thermostat, it's built in to the thermostat housing, got a new one coming Saturday for only $50 with lifetime replacement coverage.

Thankfully she's in one of the easier places to get to in the hood.
Hopefully still have time to do ice hash this weekend, wife is pissed i took up the entire freezer with weed
