DP fix WITHOUT tune?

dbjb · 10-27-2010, 08:27 PM

I know BMS offers a DP O2 fix. I believe it only works in conjunction with a tune. Correct?

Now, iIf you have CL DP's and plan to remove the tune when the car goes in for service but don't want DP error codes, is there a solution? Something NOT in the ECU box would be the best. However, if that's not possible, a DP fix in the ECU box that would work WITHOUT a tune would be great for service visits. I say that because if the ECU box was opened, a JB3/Procede would be obvious whereas just a couple extra wires for a DP fix may go unnoticed.

Thoughts and recommendations? (Recommending catted DP's is not helpful.)

I am still running with complete catless turbo back exhaust, no tune and BMS O2 sim. No problems AT ALL!

Been to the dealership 3 times already, once for a complete software reflash and they had the car for 3 days. Nothing...

bms dp fix can work without the tune which means you can use it as stand alone

So I just follow the BMS instructions but plug it into the factory harness?

Think I can leave plugged in at all times and then just install/remove the Procede?

you can run just the O2 simms/DP fix just by itself with no tune neccessary.

I understand that now. My new question is can I leave the O2 sim in there permanently AND use it in conjunction with a Procede that will be removed for service visits?

Yep.
This is what's nice about the BMS DP fix.
If you want to go to a dealer for regular maintenance, you can take off your tune and you won't throw a CEL because you still have the DP fix in.

I've used it before stock and it works fine.
I have GIAC. I go back to the stock flash but leave my DPs and DP fix in, and take it in.

awesome thread, bought my dp simms fix like 6 months ago, never installed, have to do it soon. glad to know it works.. (no tune yet)

Very glad I asked this question. I was about to sell my Dp fix for cheap but now feel it's indispensable.
