Default ITBs with KPro Alpha-N

Anyone have any experience with tuning ITBs with Alpha-N? Would really like to find a nice base map to start the process.

I thought Greg has been working with Patrick at Urge to setup ITBs on his DBW. I imagine the mad tuning scientist that is The Gernby has figured something out to get those suckers to run on his car.

The title of the thread is KPro, not FlashPro. Which is it you're asking about? Two totally different ECU's.

And no, Flashpro does not have ability to tune based on TPS (Alpha N). I've asked Hondata many times to add it, and the answer is always a resounding NO. It sounds like the the OEM ecu can't be made to meter the fuel based on TPS.

My suggestion is to just start fresh. With a load bearing dyno (DynaPack), it's quick work to get it dialed in to idle and drive decent.

I live down the road from Gernby, and I'll been in the loop with him and Patrick, and I have the newest prototype of Urge AP1 ITBs, but I'm wanting to tune Alpha N. Figured there was someone out there the had a good starting map to work from, rather than starting from scratch with the fuel and ignition tables.

for me personally, tuning Kpro on Alpha N is a nightmare (compared to good ol speed density). None of the tables look right at low engine speed, constant adjustments need to be made with various weather conditions, and part throttle for high RPM is a serious pain. I've had my car professionally tuned and I spent roughly 20 hours street tuning the part throttle to get it perfect and its still not where I want it. Oddly enough, I got it to the point where its fine for the street and drives almost like a factory set up, but for the track its still not ideal.
