Interesting, if a pure 800 alternative is ever readily available I may have to think about this bandaid ?. I wonder if it can be integrated with the JB4 methanol control. I guess I could run JB4 still just for methanol (even though the fail safe trigger doesn't work), but it would be annoying swapping obd2 plugs for map switching.
You can control meth with an AEM meth controller. You really just disconnect the FSB and use some quick crimps. Should be an hour or so job. Probably less.

Adding meth is good for everything even without a methanol tune, since you can target AFR with a Cal Table tune.

Yeah methanol is currently only for times when I accidentally go over e40 on JB4, and also just for safety on track. Ironically at the end of each session the tank has 1-2 ounces at the bottom so who knows if it completely runs dry occasionally. Would never use it as a fuel or octane source for that reason. Car does run exactly the same at 95° and 60°.

FYI: if you unlock your ecu with Femto directly, they hold on to the read file of your ecu.

If you obtain a cloneable ecu, this read file allows you to remotely clone the ecu with an bFlash master hardware. No need to send the ecu oversees again.

I’ve not seen Femto charge additional fees for this clone file, but I’ve seen Visconti hold on to this file and not turn it over unless you pay for more services to clone through them.

So even if you’re an ecutek Stan, you could still do a clone later after the basic unlock without much extra headache (beyond finding a donor ecu)

Of course Viscunti does that. Jesus...
