low rpm is really good drives well and clutch is really good its allot better than i thought it would be so all posatives so far ;-) if weather is good tomorrow will go out for a drive get the first 100 miles done and change the oil and filter ,its strange putting crap cheap oil in it to bed everything in lol

No on/off feeling with your clutch??? Shifting down was horrible with me!

Try and keep it in closed loop so it's using lambda data And please get a log file done

If you put it in fuel learning it will lock it in to closed loop but you will have to becareful to allow engine and lambda to cool down between WoT runs What rpm are you maxing out at the moment while running in

No the bite is right at the top in a different place but other than that very drivable  ,on first drive i was getting ready for a very harsh bite   but isn't that bad unless it needs to bed in more perhaps . Havnt given it any load yet

The car will run in closed loop under low load conditions automatically But again a log will really help us figure out how far the fueling is out and give plenty of data for whennyou move up the Rev range

Might be a bit early ATM but if you can't do anything upload your current map from the car The fuel trims on the general page might of already started to change give us some indication of how much extra fuel your setup is using The good thing about pro version it's possible to use wideband for fuel control

Wel, a little flooring is good. :happy:

Lots written on proper engine bedding-in procedures, but basically being the worst driver with alternating quick acceleration/decelleration sprints on b-roads should should do the trick quickly. Just keep a log running to spot any knock.

(ps; like the new look  thumbsup )

50 miles on and off the throttle on semi synthetic, then a few hundred miles fully synthetic being quite sensible job done. This was on std prisons and rings though. Not sure all this mineral oil running is is nessary any more?
