Glad you're pleased with the remap! I got an Autologic map that I too am very pleased with!
 Why are all your posts in capital letters? It is not really good etiquette AS IT MEANS YOU ARE SHOUTING! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!
Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |

I'm blind in one eye and got lenses like Coca Cola bottles in my glasses, I m butt ugly too coz I screw my face up so I find it hard to discern words when written all in capitals. Thank you and no need to apologise! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Hi Landy Andy, have you managed to save any fuel yet or are you still " flooring it everywhere" with a big grin on your face like me ?

Yes am saving fuel. I am not booting it around that much as I had an other companies remap on it before, so am used to the power, BUT due to some running problems Gary checked it over for me and ended up remaping it.
And his remap is worlds apart, soooooooo much smoother, still all the power, and now no misfire, or black smoke. And free beer whilst it was being done 
Will take weeks, or longer for you to stop flooring it, and blowing people away from the lights 
Been there

Can anybody tell me why factory values are "not optimized" for this engine, so remapping can get more torque, smooth running, save fuel, etc.?

Is there more diesel knocking at idle or at any revs? Puma 110" SW

Give Gary a call and find out ps there is a forum discount as well.
Yes, as there is more torque available you tend to change gear at lower revs as the extra Torque pulls you along nicely.
No, the anti stall feature is not affected.
No, as it is a personal remap based on the individual original LR fuel map from your landy the fuel pressure at the rail and boost pressure are matched perfectly meaning no excess of black smoke from exhaust (Too much fuel and not enough Air) and a smoother running engine due to the Fuel rail pressure not set too high (unlike a plug in box) so no resulting extra clatter or knocking from engine. Also remember that a diesel will always knock on start up and at idle due to ignition lag, this being the small delay (typically 0.001 to 0.002 seconds) between the start of fuel injection and the beginning of combustion and is more noticeable with a cold engine at start up. The characteristic diesel knock is caused by the sudden increase in cylinder pressure which occurs when the injected fuel has been mixed with the hot air (As the piston moves up and compresses the inlet air which is cold, it rises in temp due to the force and pressure being exerted by the piston) and starts burning. So as every thing is matched in a personal remap the engine will not sound any different but will rev more freely and the available torque is increased. HTH Brian. |
