Your guess is as good as mine Karl. I'm not to drive it at anything like full throttle when it's cold anyways, it's just one of the features. I doubt I'm using maximum torque for much of the time neither, maybe fore a second or two at most each time lets be honest. But if it does what it says on the tin, and gives me 2-4mpg more, then it's job done!I wonder how it knows the engine temperature ? . Quite often the MAP sensor also contains the air intake temperature sensor so it may have access to that but that doesn't really tell it how hot the engine is, If there is a sensor built into the actual module measuring underbonnet temps then the location of the tuning module would have a great effect on it's operation. Or is it that it doesn't do anything for the first 5 minutes ? .
Believe it or not, the tuning box has just arrived mid typing this! Lol. I've done around 250 miles since acquiring the car, so not much data to work on or compare it with, there's half a tank of derv left. I won't fit this until this tank of fuel is done, as I like to use brim to brim figures.
