Hi Awf,
Bootmod3 will read out your Vehicle's file and based on the ROM version it will determine what OTS files are suitable for you. What I would suggest looking at (since the fuel quality in the GCC is not great) is the fuel quality. What sort of octane/RON do you have in Kuwait? We, in UAE, have 98RON and 95RON. Unfortunately though, the 98RON is not a pure 98RON quality fuel, so I flashed the 95RON file and the car gave stronger figures than the 98RON file. P.s: 98RON = 93oct 95RON = 91oct You might want to verify the fuel quality before doing anything, otherwise you'll be disappointed. Cheers

Totally irrelevant. Stage 1: If your car does not have any added catless downpipes Stage 2: If your car does have added catless downpipes The OTS maps are as follows: Stg1 - 91oct Stg1 - 93oct Stg2 - 91oct Stg2 - 93oct I suggest buying the maps bundle and try to switch between 91 and 93 and time your car (100-200) using a proper performance box (either Dragy or Vbox) and compare your results. This will give you a better understanding about the quality of fuel you have. It took me months of continuous studying to realize that the 91oct file was faster than the 93oct file I had flashed.

But first experiment a little with OTS maps, and allow each map 300-500 km for it to adapt completely.

Does BM3 really need 300-500 km to adapt after changing/flashing a new map?
If I'm at the track and switch maps, the car would not reach full performance on the new map until it's driven for at least 300 km. I thought that was with a piggyback system only (JB4, etc.). |
