Drivetrain The Official ALTA AccessPORT Thread
#2101
I have a 2010 R55 turbo with an AP running stage 1 w/ FMIC. I have been considering getting the JCW package as well lately. I am curious if the AP maps would work on the regular S with the JCW tune? I know the factory JCW model uses a larger turbo, and I've been told by the dealership that the JCW upgrade does not include the turbo. Would there be any fuel delivery problems or timing issues when combining the AP with the JCW upgrade?
The AccessPORT will work over the JCW tune, but it really wouldn't be worth purchasing the JCW package if you're just going to overwrite it with the ALTA map anyway. The JCW package pretty much comes with a tune, and different muffler, so it won't make any extra power compared to what you're making right now.

Okay, I know it's complete heresy, but I have my AP uninstalled sitting in my college apartment after getting it from another NAM'er. I haven't gotten home to install it but i had a question. I have TDynamics 1.2 without TPMS and I HATE the stupid light saying i have low tire pressure. NO ***** sherlock, you think they're completely out of air. But anyways, can the AP deactivate the TPMS system and or keep it from bringing the light up? Thanks, Daniel

If you read farther back in this thread, I talk about it, I don't think the guy that's actually having it made for him reads this, but Jeff gave it to me to try out.

There is a guy running around with a prototype P&B map. We're still working out the bugs on it. We don't have any new news, sorry! When it's ready, we will let everyone know.

The ALTA downpipe has been discontinued, sorry! We don't have plans right now to bring it back.
But adding other parts like our intake, inlet hose, hot side boost tube and intercooler can add a lot of power to your car. We even have a tune specifically for our aftermarket intercooler preloaded in the AccessPORT to gain the most power!

BUMMER!! I was just about to get one because I'd prefer to get the DP that the tune was created on. So much for stage 3, for now..
I've got pretty much everything upgraded on the intake side, running stage 1 w/ FMIC already. Chris, any other companies you would recommend for a DP

The ALTA maps are very safe. From what I've seen, the people that were having issues with stage 3s tunes were not running ALTA maps.

Hello Chris,
Upgraded to stage 3 92 octane the other day and have the following issue.
During a spirited start the engine will bog down just before the shift and for a while after the shift.
Also from a cruise if you try to accelerate at brisk pace not wot the engine will bog then go.
The bog is very distinct sounds like there is plenty of boost and is ready to go but nothing but noise.
Do you have something for this?
Using the monitor it appears the ECU pulls all the ignition timing during these times.
The Details:
93 Octane
JCW Air Intake
Aftermarket Intercooler
3" Turbo back exhaust
AP-MIN-001 v1.6.3.2-2696
Vehicle: USDM Mini Auto (H910B)

Sorry about the issue with the tune. If you could send me a datalog of this occuring, that will help. Make sure to have the AccessPORT set to record the default settings, and replicate the issue and send it to maps@altaperformance.com and we will get back to you. Thanks!

The AP is still more bang for the buck.
