This is a good site to start from.

You don't need to know how to "use" it. You have it mapped for fuel, ign, boost and all the rest, and leave it at that. You can use the hand controller (model specific!) to monitor things like water temp, air intake temp etc.

You can make alterations to the map, but you should really know what you're doing else you can screw your engine up.

Indeed, leave well alone unless you know how to map engine management sysems.

I hope the next thread by the OP isn't I had a play with my PowerFC controller and now the car hesitates on boost. Followed by my engine bay is covered in oil.

No problem.

Just remember not to go near it once you have paid to have it mapped. Not even in a "i'll just change it, see what it does and then change it back" kinda way.

Besides, if your mapper knows what he's doing, you won't want to change it!!! biggrin
