He should start with his code. I made his basemap and yes obviously it’s for his 450’s. So that shouldn’t be an issue. Getting 450’s to idle well is simple. edit: To guess before even talking to him, I imagine he switched his tps and map sensor plugs. ---

when people say basemap it is usaully talking about there new injector size. it just isnt fine tuned yet ---

Also bleed the coolant, that causing a bouncy idle in hondas. ---

> [@slowa$$ek](#): > > when people say basemap it is usaully talking about there new injector size. it just isnt fine tuned yet Don’t tell me what something usually means. I can put a “basemap” on a car for a certain size injectors, run it for a year untuned, then swap out injectors and still have a “basemap” on the car. The poster isn’t exactly clear with anything he writes. ---

“a basemap” doesn’t mean shit. When I built my honda, I ran the d16 motor on a b-series “basemap”. This dude needs to get his car tuned. ---

ok, what you said newman is true. but when somebody tells me they have 450cc injectors and a basemap i generally think they have the basemap set up for the injector size that is all. yes he needs to get the car tuned its a simple solution ---

> [@deebo](#): > > LOL how did that go well, I never drove it on the map, just started it to check that the motor would run. I let it warm up, and by the time it was warm, the patch of grass where the exhaust was emitting was completely black from running so rich. ---
