USE AT OWN RISK
-06WRX
-SPT intake (complete shield box)
-VF39
-STi TMIC
-Cobb cat'd DP
-Vibrant 3" cat-back
-stock BCS
-stock injectors
-stock fuel pump
-elevation is 3500ft
-fuel is Ethanol Blended (<10%) 94 (not that great but still higher octane than our crap 91)

[edit] forgot about the STi TMIC...very important.

Wanna post some logs from the rom? I'd like to see what you're getting out of that VF39.

don't suppose you have a 91oct version of your map do you?

I didn't log ambient pressure but it is usually 12.9psi

Try pulling ~2.1* from the timing map at mid-high boost area go from there.

Airboy,

Thanks for sharing this.

I'm preparing to install a VF34 and TBE (no cat) on my 07 WRX, and planning to use your map as a base map. What is your take on the changes induced by the STI intercooler and the SPT intake? Logging will be essential to make this map work for me, but I'm curious on what your previous experience has shown you regarding these mods.

Thanks,
Alex.

You really should upgrade your TMIC to go with the VF34. I did the turbo/TMIC change at the same time so I don't have info on what is needed to make it work with the stock TMIC. It was necessary to rescale the MAF to accommodate the SPT intake. Some stock intakes need to be scaled a bit as well.

Airboy,
If I want to use this as my base map when I install a VF39, STi TMIC and GMbcs on my 06 WRX, yet I have already spent considerable time scaling my MAF can I copy my existing MAF table over to this map and then pull 2.1 timing in the high boost areas to make it work for me? (91 oct here).
Obviously this will be a base map but I would really like to forgo the MAF scaling again if at all possible.

Here will be the mod list:

VF39
STi top mount
APS 65mm CAI
APS 3" catless TBE
gmbcs

Copy over your MAF table and maybe lower timing by 3.2* to start. Your TBE is catless so you should lowering the WGDC limits a bit as well (5% perhaps)

Thanks Airboy, I will try that out as soon as I get these things installed.
I just finished a complete STi 6MT swap (axles, Brembos, R180 and 6MT, with coil overs and every single group-n bushing made) this weekend so now I am ready to start in on the VF39 and top mount.

I have pretty much the same setup as Team Scream, with the addition of a Walbro 255lp, and I'll be running 93oct, I'd obviously have to adjust the WGDC for the GMBCS, but what about the timing, think the Fuel Pump and 93oct will make up the 1oct difference?

Hey captain,
I did not end up installing the gmbcs yet, however I used this map as a base from which to tune from and with the help of another member here we got it absolutely perfect for my car in it's current condition.
I will tell you that I was boosting over 19psi when I first loaded this map so be careful with it if you are using the gmbcs.

After reading the gmbcs tuning thread, they suggest lowering the wgdc across the board by 25-30% to start with.

Airboy,
thanks for sharing this.
did you use the stock WRX restrictor pill or the STI .043" pill?
Thanks
Anton.

hi all,

do you think that this would be safe to run on the same set up apart from i'm running a TD0516g?

i guess also that becuase i'm running a EU 06 WRX (A8DH200Y)i will have to tranfers the maps one at a time to my definition?

is there not a easy way of transfering the maps to my definition?

Thank you

Damian

Hi everyone,
could you gurus take a quick look to my logs, please?
My setup is: STI TMIC, VF43 turbo, de-catted stock exhaust and 98 RON fuel.
Appreciate your comments, guys.
Anton
