the fuel and timing maps are in red(pink) as if they didn't sync properly, the address file being used is for 44f02, the ecu is a 44f01 but the base map on the nistune board is the 44f02, the laptop is connecting and i can adjust k and the other maps in white, just the fuel map is not making as much difference as it should,

will i keep tunning it or is there a way to get it to sync and turn white?

the pink is indicative of the map being used. if the ECU knock sensor is not functioning properly on some of these it will use knock maps

With the fuel maps, increase/decrease a bunch of cells and see if the injection pulsewidth adjusts

For CA18, it uses _both_ timing maps at the same time. We recommend using the map copy button to copy to knoock

it was the first type 1 i have done, worked out well all the way to 1.1bar before the head gasket failed :( 1989 car with 140k miles on it, we'll get it fixed and see what power we can get out of it :D
