khurlburt Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Hey guys, my spec b is currently running an opensource tune and i want to buy an accessport to monitor all the parameters and log data. I want to use the current tune that is on the car, as my mods are too extensive to run a generic ots map. Is there any way for me to continue to use the car's current tune and run the ap? Thanks.

bnguyenbb6 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 You'll have to run through the Opensource maps and just copy and paste to Accesstuner. Some maps won't be the same values like injector constant but it should be an easy conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khurlburt Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 Would i be able to just select "download the stock map" from the install menu and then reflash the "stock" map? Would it actually download the opensource tune or would it just erase the map and replace it with a generic stock map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnguyenbb6 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I don't know how that works but you can always reflash a completely stock map before even switching over to the AP. http://www.romraider.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=7591 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 You could buy a Vag-com cable for $15 and use a laptop with Romraider to log the data as well. Is there a specific reason why you want the AP other than size? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khurlburt Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 I want the accessport really for convenience. That and I got a pretty good deal on one, so I want to utilize all of it's features. And the only problem is I don't have a copy of the current map the car is running on my computer. Is there a way for me to make a copy of that map and put it on my computer? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 You could use ECU Flash (Tuning thread) and pull it down via the VAG-com cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serx7 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 As bnguyenbb6 alluded to already, take care to note units of measure differences b/n OS and AP calibrations esp if you plan to do an exhaustive manual copy/paste from the tables in your OS calibration to the AP one. Eg: boost targets in PSI in OS, bar in AP; boost limits in PSI Absolute in OS, bar Relative in AP; temp in deg F in OS, deg C in OS, etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
