I am, but I have an S4 NA, and it's out of commission waiting for my shoulder to get better so I can fix the alternator and radiator.

I don't think it would be a good idea to run an S4 NA tune on an S5 turbo. It'd probably get you started, but the spark table doesn't go into boost, and nor does the fuel table.

Honestly I wouldn't even give my tune to someone else with an S4 NA... Compared to the other S4 NA engines I've tuned, mine actually required quite a different tune (I'm assuming due the particular way I keep it for testing purposes along with the fact that my injectors probably need cleaned).

Ohh, rgr that man. Didn't know all that lol. And what's upgrade mode? But if you could somehow snag a copy of his tune I would really really appreciate it! But it's not like you have to rush or anything, I still have a wireing harness to start and an intake and exhaust to finish before I can even put it in the car lol ...

Upgrade mode means he's running without the ms3x board... we put MS3 on his car before that was out and ran it as an upgrade to ms2/extra on an ms2.

His msq is probably going to be from an older firmware rev too, so it'll likely warn you about some stuff when you load it.

Here is the most recent tune I have:
http://userpages.umbc.edu/~migol1/RX...I_MS3_Tune.msq

make sure you change the values on the injectors, including the secondaries... I'm running 2200cc secondaries... if you don't change that value, you'll blow your engine quick.

and yes, it's a decently old version of MS3.
