Driving on base map

718 Views 8 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  EB23SILVERBACK
Hey everyone!

I’m currently running FBO (CAI, IC,DP) and having the NX2 installed. I’m getting tuned by Ryan at pd tuning and just got the base map today. I’m going to flash it later and run some datalogs. I was wondering if anyone had any experience regarding driving on the base map while waiting on my first revision (after I datalog on the base map). Is it safe? Or should I stick to waiting to only drive it to do datalogs?

thanks!

Thanks for the replies! I drove it home on the highway for an hour. I was worried it was going to go boom so I tried not to go WOT(tried lol). I had no issues like y’all said so thank you. Can’t wait to get it fully dialed up and see what kind of power I’ll make

I ran on base map from Ryan with no problems. Now I am running on a base map revision because I went and swapped out the wastegate to a Turbosmart 12psi to get it dialed back in before tuning for methanol.

I was really happy with the final results of Ryan’s tune. Also got the transmission tune. The car is way more fun to drive than what is was on the Cobb Stage 2 tune I was running.

What kind of DP are you running? Did you feel the difference of NX2 compared to stock right away? Also, did Ryan give you an estimated WHP once all revisions are finished?

I’m still working on revisions at the moment. I sent my first datalog yesterday so I’ll be waiting this week on my first revision. I’m running the CVF catted dp and let me tell you it is LOUD with the straight pipe. Idk how long before I decide to get a proper exhaust. The car does sound a lot deeper tho, and the NX2 gives off a distinct sound compared to stock. Something like a semi truck lol. But in terms of difference compared to stock, it is much louder and a lot more responsive as far as when I tap on the gas peddle. However, I still am on the base map so it’s not much difference from stock power wise. When I did my 3k-6k WOT pull I read in at 337hp 380wtq. I’ll probably give more updates once the full tune is finished up!

Transmission tune is definitely next after my NX2 is dialed in. But unfortunately I’m in college and I gotta save money for it so I’ll give it a bit
