3 About Maestro 7 Tuning Suite Maestro 7 Tuning Suite is a comprehensive tuning facility for late model Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche vehicles. The Maestro Suite when combined with a Eurodyne flash file allows users to re-write the electronic engine controller base tune, record or log the result of the changes made then edit the ECU binary based on the recorded log and re-flash the ECU with the modified file. This operation can be repeated as many times as desired to fully optimize changes made to the hardware you are using on your vehicle. Each file can be saved under a different name allowing the user to go back to previous versions if so desired. Users can also deactivate the CEL for emission devices when preparing a vehicle for off road use and save the file - to reactivate the CEL for on road use simply reload the original file. The Maestro Editor contains many features that will assist you in getting the best possible performance from your vehicle quickly and efficiently. Features like the Injector Wizard will allow you to switch between popular injector sizes with a few clicks of the mouse. The Trace Histogram feature allows the Maestro user to view recorded map correction activity and apply them simply by selecting the "apply histogram values" button - follow this link for a how-to on this and other topics ( that will help you get the most from your Eurodyne purchase. It is important to note that the features provided by the Maestro Suite are impacted by the sophistication of the engine controller being modified, please see the Maestro function table for more information on what to expect on your specific application. Continuous Improvement Expanding the Maestro 7 tuning suite to accommodate new vehicles and provide an increased range of features requires a continual evolution of the Maestro Suite. Owners of the Maestro Suite are provided with automatic no cost upgrades to their package via the Eurodyne website. Simply plug in your Powertap Interface and launch Eurodyne Flash; a verification of your current software version will take place along with an offer to upgrade - just follow the on-screen prompts to complete the process. 2

31 Re-Flashing the ECU Note: Writing the binary file to your vehicle can not complete successfully if interrupted. Here are a few precautions you can take to prevent interruptions in the file flashing process: 1. Plug your laptop into 110v to prevent a shutdown during the flash due to low batteries 2. Turn off all accessories in the vehicle, lights, heater, radio, etc. Use a trickle charger on your vehicle to ensure battery voltage does not fall below 12V 3. Turn off screen saver and sleep mode mode on your laptop 4. Route the Powertap connecting cable in a way that will prevent accidental diaconnection Note: If this is the first time that the vehicle has been flashed, you will need to use the.tapp single use licensing file ed from Eurodyne. To get a licensing file, read a copy of your ECU binary and it to support@eurodyne.ca. You will receive an back with a single use.tapp licensing file, a modifiable base file, and an activation key. For subsequent flashes, and to modify your ECU file, you must use the original base file. When you flash the licensing file to your ECU for the first time, Eurodyne Flash will prompt you to enter your key. Cut and paste the key code from the . Re-Flashing the ECU: 1.

49 Tuning with Maestro 7 DISCLAIMER: It should be understood that ANY changes you make to your vehicle s stock settings can harm your vehicle and ALL changes are made at your own risk. The instructions provided to you here should only be used as guidelines to tuning your vehicle. It is also critical that all hardware and sensors are functioning at 100% before beginning to modify your car s ECU. We recommend checking the function of O2 sensors, MAP and the Mass Air Flow Sensor (if equipped). Step 1 Reflash your ECU with the license file provided to you in the registration as described Here in the How-To section. Note: Maestro can ONLY use.csv log files created using the High Speed Logger. ***If you have an AEB engine with an M3.8 ECU you will need to use the Maestro Logging feature in measuring blocks to create usable log files.*** Step 2 After downloading and installing all software and drivers ensure your Eurodyne cable is plugged into your computer. Maestro 7 will only open if you have your authentic and registered Eurodyne Powertap cable connected. Step 3 Open Maestro 7 and from the file menu load your base.tapp file. Be sure to choose the correct base file for your hardware configuration. Each base file should provide you with a reliable configuration from which you can begin your tuning. Save your.tapp file often under new file names to ensure you do not lose ground if you need to revert to earlier settings. Step 4 If you have changed your injectors since obtaining your base file, open the Injector Wizard from the Fuelling menu on the left hand side of the screen to scale your injectors. Select the size of your injectors from the dashboard of the injector wizard. When you click on your injector size your new injector constant, fuel consumption constant and battery voltage compensation will be calculated and applied automatically. 48

50 Injectors can also be scaled manually using the injector wizard by entering the stock vs. new fuel pressure and injector size in the appropriate fields, then clicking Calculate Step 5 Open your Fuelling and spark maps to ensure the axis and RPM range are within specifications for your vehicle. Note: Map descriptions can be opened either by right clicking on the map or by using the map description button at the top of most map windows. 49

51 Step 6 Support for MAF-less configurations is available for some engine codes. If this option is available for your application it will be found in the menu at the left hand side of the screen and you will need to decide whether you will use a Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor or not. Step 7 If you have already created a log file it should be loaded now. Changes to individual maps can be made quickly and easily by using the map tracing and histogram functions of Maestro. ***The histogram will provide very accurate feedback on which specific cells need to be modified, by highlighting and displaying the differences in map values then applying them.*** If you have already tuned a specific range in the map you are editing, you may wish to clear cells from the histogram before applying all values. This can be done by clicking and dragging to highlight cells, then right clicking and selecting Clear Selected Cells. 50

52 Step 8 Make any adjustments to LAMBDA target maps and adjust Rev limits to desired values. Step 9 - Save any changes under a NEW file name and flash the new.tapp file to your ECU. Note: If your car has an irregular idle, a Throttle Body Adaptation can be performed now as described here: This should be done periodically but is not required every reflash. Step 10 - Warm up your vehicle. To ensure you are obtaining the most accurate data it is extremely important your logging and tuning are performed while the vehicle is at operating temperature in closed loop. Step 11 Using the flash client, clear all fault codes. Most importantly this will zero your fuel trims and erase any adaptations that have been made by the ECU. Step 12 Create a new Log file as described here HERE in the How To section of the Forums. NOTE: While creating log files, attempt to cover as many different load settings as possible. The more complete your log data is, the more complete and accurate your tune file will be. Repeat steps 7-12 as many times as necessary. Step 13 - Once you are satisfied with your initial tuning, timing and knock correction tables can be adjusted in small increments as necessary. Step 14 Finally, make any adjustments to Cold start and warm up maps. 51

54 Quick Tune Re-Flashing the ECU can take 5 minutes or longer depending on your system. For quick changes, there are ECU settings that can be modified through Eurodyne flash directly. In Eurodyne Flash, click on "Read Settings". The Quick Tune menu will appear. If the ECU has a Big Turbo binary, Switching Active will be checked off and the maps can be flipped between Low octane pump and High octane race gas. Once you have made changes in Quick Tune, you will be prompted to enter license key. If you have already entered it, click Skip Key. You will be prompted to turn the ignition on. Turn the ignition on but do not start the car. Click the Ignition is On button, and Quick Tune will close automatically after updating the binary on the ECU. Note: Modifying your settings incorrectly can damage your car. Changes are made at your own risk. 53
