Giulia/Stelvio BCM adjustment for "Race Mode"
Posted: 06 Jan 2021, 18:17
It would be great if there was a way to use MES to change the Race Mode settings in the BCM for those 2.0 Alfa's that have the R DNA controllers installed (not stock, I know). Currently, when enabled, the Race Mode keeps the N map from the ECU but when someone (like me) has a "Tuned" ECU with separate maps for A, N, and D modes, respectively, it would be good to have the ability to alter the ECU map that Race Mode uses, so that the D map, for instance, is enabled in Race Mode.
I have spoken to the tuning companies and they assure me that the reason dual maps do not work as expected (I'd expect the D ECU tune in Race Mode), is down to the byte configuration in the BCM. This seems like something that is within the capabilities of MES and would be a very useful feature as there are many Race DNA controllers sold to 2.0 Giulia and Stelvio owners.
