AA8 Tune Dial Settings?
I received the AA8 tune for my 228i yesterday and plan to install it at the weekend, but I am unclear of the function of the dial on the back of the box. It's labeled 0-F in hex (0-15 in decimal) and it came set to 6. I read elsewhere that each step is 0.3psi boost more, but starting at what, and do all 16 steps do something? I have the install instructions from their website, and I guess I expected more to come in the box, but there were none. I pinged AA by email last night but they have not yet responded.

Got in touch with Andrew from AA who confirmed that 6 is the intended default, and is the maximum recommended map for an otherwise stock N20 on 91 gas.

I posted this question in the F3x N20 forum as well and somebody answered there with more info about the higher maps, starting with 6 being good for 93 stock too. |

jamoka3 is the N20/n26 AA8 expert , we live in North East so we're happy to have 93 octane.
For those in 91 area, get some Torco or Boostane to increase your 91 to 94-95
