As I stated on Spyderchat, I have now built a tool that will read tunes/maps from the apexi pfc. It is not completed as of yet, but even if it were to stay in it’s current form, I do not see any issues with it long term.
https://mr2-spyder.com/map-explorer/
One of the updates i’m bringing on the re-build of the mr2-spyder.com website is a map viewer for apexi pfc maps. It’s as simple as it gets to use and is based around the 1zz and 2zz primarily while also being able to read just about any pfc map(though only displaying part of the information available).
Usage: I kept the usage as simple as I could. You click the button labeled “Choose File”, select your map in a .dat format, and then it will display various componets of the map/tune.
What is shown:
I have decided to focus this around toyota platforms, for obvious reasons, so what is displayed is what is important to us.
Engine Platform/PFC Version – Straight forward as it is 1zz or 2zz(or 1zz-FET, or any other platform. this is pulled from the tune/map itself)
RevLimit – This is straight forward. It is whatever is set as the redline within the tune/map
Injector Size – Injector sizing isn’t set within the map/tune itself(I have to provide it in the code as a constant integer). If a non-stock injector is used, a correction factor based off of the stock injectors will need to be calculated(new injector size = stock injector * correction factor). I plan on implementing this into a later release/update. I had issues parsing this data initially so it’s not currently included.
Injector/AFR map – while this is technically a correction type map, many tuners use it as an AFR map, so i included both the correction factor and the afr options(with AFR being the default view)
Base Map – this is the primary map used for fueling.
Ignition Map – Self explanatory, this is the ignition map. While the 1zz pfc technically has two ignition maps, this is the primary(and correct) IGL ignition map; as such the trailing ignition map is not included. Sadly, for those rotary users that want to see both leading and trailing maps, I am not including it at this time.
VVTI Map – Again, self explanatory. It displays the vvti map.
To be added: As stated, I want to add the injector correction factors to display any changes to the injector sizes at the global level.
I need to add the VVTLI lift point.
That’s all for now. This is still early while I’m building out the rest of the site. If you have any issues, please let me know here.
