- RomRaider 0.5.3 Beta RC7 -
Open-Source ECU Tuning -- www.romraider.com
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ RELEASE _NOTES.TXT_ EACH TIME YOU DOWNLOAD
A NEW VERSION OF ROMRAIDER. IMPORTANT NOTICES, KNOWN ISSUES AND
NEW FEATURES WILL BE DISCUSSED.
RomRaider is a full featured Engine Control Unit editing application
for tuning virtually any manufacturer, meant to be used in conjuction
with ECU flash and dump utilities. RomRaider will give you full
control over timing, fuel, boost and many other parameters in your
ECU, competing with very expensive and proprietary software. RomRaider
will remove your need for piggyback systems designed to control these
functions, and, in most cases, work as well as or better than any
stand alone engine management. Reflashing your stock ECU also has the
added benefit of a manufacturer tested base map, giving you top notch
performance and saving time tuning idle and low throttle applications
while retaining all of the benefit of the research and development
manufacturer's spend millions of dollars on.
RomRaider is currently in BETA TEST status, meaning it is not
thoroughly tested and not intended for use by inexperienced users. In
addition to being incomplete and untested, only experienced tuners
with the required tools (ie, wideband oxygen sensor) should modify an
ECU image. As with any engine management, changes could result in
severe engine damage. Use at your own risk.
Documentation is available at http://wiki.romraider.com and the
official RomRaider FAQ can be found at
http://www.romraider.com/about444.html. Please be aware that as
RomRaider is still in beta status and changing frequently,
documentation may be incomplete or out of date.

"recalculate" the results.
- Smoothing, lower is more smooth and higher is less smooth.
- Right click on the graph to Save as...
- If you wish to average two or more consecutive runs, press the
Record Data button again and repeat the WOT run. At the end of
each run the datasets will be combined and the results displayed.
