I installed my FlashPro today and performed the remote jailbreak on my 2018 european FK8. It went quite smooth, but one of the problems that I see is that all maps available are for US cars, and they most likely do not come with the same calibration because of slightly different fuel. They alos have fewer functions compared to a european spec GT version.
I know from asking on the forums that people have used the 93 hondata maps on european cars and they seem to be conservative and work ok on our common 98 octane fuel. I therefore took the 93 map with intercooler (I have a PRL intercooler installed) but merged it with the standard maps below 4000 to give the car a really good top-end, in the old style fashion of HONDA VTEC engines. It worked well and feels stock below 4000 and then pulls hard to redline.
Now the issue, I see that uploading this map has killed the automatic start/stop fucntion and this system now flashes in the instrument all the times. This is a bit annoying even though I don't really care about start/stop.
1. Has anyone else experinced this when using Hondata on european cars?
2. A request from me to Hondata would alos be to upload a proper european base-map so we can go back to stock with all functions working, now I could most likelyonly go back to the US base map, which might even give slightly less power than a stock european map.
