Bring back the strain gauge

Post by rev hard »

Ive noticed that a lot of people are going faster and faster on s300 now then before, is there anyway way we can bring back the strain gauge settings in s300 to maybe even further improve times , with the people running the dog boxes?

perhaps it was taken out because the factory ecu can't process it fast enough?

It was taken out because there is very limited space in the ECU memory. Since more people are interested in using a strain gauge input we've added back in a timed rev limit for the shift cut.

How does that help vs adding back in the strain cut input?

It has not been released yet. It functions from an off/on input, not voltage.

using this cut...how does the timing come back in?..does it slowly come in or does it just go back to the map instantly?
