Title: Learning curve: what path to follow? Post by: giowz0rd on January 29, 2022, 06:29:52 PM Hello guys,
Pretty new here in NefMoto - but I already like how you guys spread information and help each others. I already have a background in engine tuning/mechanical engineering due to my career, but I got a question that I would like your opinion: For a noob tuner - is it worth to start flashing friend’s car with a Kess clone for learning purposes or it is better to follow directly the open source path? The question may seem obvious (to follow the opensource directly), but I think I need to refine my tuning knowledges first. How was your learning curves on tuning? Am I following the right path? Thanks and sorry for the bad english! ::) Title: Re: Learning curve: what path to follow?

To solve it (if this happens), I should get a Galetto/MPPS or a KTAG to make possible to recover it in bench using bootmode. Right? Title: Re: Learning curve: what path to follow?

Is the s4wiki tuning guide applicable to most cars with ME7.x.x? Title: Re: Learning curve: what path to follow? Post by: Blazius on January 30, 2022, 01:08:02 PM That is a good start.

I will start my forum excavation. I’ll be here in the Noob Section more times, expect to see me hahahaha Thanks for everyone that answered kindly. Let’s go!!!

Kess I also have but being a clone can't do bootmode without mods. I also have a blue ft232 cable for copying the eeprom, which is the first thing you need to do. You may wanna do the dsg one day and for that I have no idea of what cheap crap to get. Kess once again can do it but not without modding the board on the clone. |
