  1. Software/Firmware version 4.8.0 has now been released. This is a list of the changes http://www.vi-pec.com/page_files/FirmwareChanges.html

    The big changes are CAN bus support for OEM and after market dash, and the software tables and menus. A huge amount of work has gone into the new menu and table look. There are all sorts of fluff like snail trails. The software is now 99% keyboard driven which is something tuners have wanted for a long time. Mouse is too slow...

    Any ECU with serial number over 10000 will support the CAN bus. Older serial numbers will need to be modified to support the CAN. In most cases this can be done by your local dealer. If not the ECU will have to be sent back.

  2. I'll stick to the 4-1 setup then.

    That disk does not have a 4-1 pattern. You only cause confusion by calling it that way. As I said before 4-1 (four minus one) is four evenly spaced with one missing. You cannot call it 4+1 either as that is five with four of then evenly spaced, with the fifth offset from one of the other four. The disk has four slots plus a sync slot.

    1. If the coils have internal igniters they cannot be used with the XPS-4 or any other CDI.

    2. If the coils do have igniters internally or externally then the Vipec will need no other hardware to fire them.

  3. I'm not sure if those errors will be the source of your problem, as I've had two MY01 WRX Plugin's show the same Overcurrent error with 15.9V internal 12V reading after upgrading from 4.6.9 to 4.7.1 firmware.

    This is a software bug and the information it provides is false. Ignore the errors and they will disapear with the next software version. Basicly the software thinks it is connected to a V88 rather then a V44. Has no effect on anything other then me having to keep telling people to ignore it.

  4. The disk you show does not have 4-1 slots. It has 4 slots and one slot for the cam (sync) signal. 4-1 is four teeth with one missing (three unevenly spaced teeth).

    The engine can always run sequential if you have a cam (sync) signal.

    As recommended select trigger 1 multi tooth and select 4 teeth on the camshaft, and Cam 1x Pulse for trigger 2.
