Dinan can't code out cold start

daveypetey · 03-17-2019, 03:03 PM

Hope the mods can move my original post over to this one. I posted on the wrong spot. I am about to purchase an 17 m2 with a Dinan stage 4 tune. Unfortunately, Dinan doesn't have the option to remove the cold start feature. Is this possible with another tuner without effecting the Dinan tune?

you can theoretically use BM3 with stock tune and just disable the cold start without affecting dinan tune

Curious. What is the 'cold start feature'.

On a cold engine start the car has a special sequence that ties to heat up the cats as quick as possible for emissions reasons. This is the loud idle you hear on cold mornings and such.

Bring the RPMs up just a bit to 1400 or less and you wont hear hardly anything. Really.
