Thanks -- Braden and I are in touch now. We're working through this and I'll share a meaningful update with the forum later.

Braden provided me with a couple custom maps, one each for 91 and 93+.

Our local group is headed back to Willow Springs again tomorrow morning! I intend to run the 93 map with 100 octane fuel at HTM. This is more or less the same set of conditions as last time. I'll datalog the important vitals and report back soon!

Long and fun day at Willow Springs HTM, today!

I'll post more later, but the short version is that the new 93 octane map performed great today! My butt dyno says it's down on power a little (we'll have to look at that wastegate duty cycle a bit more), but it felt great -- and more importantly, worked flawlessly (and good enough to share top time of day in a field of 50+).

Also, there is tons of great tuning information in our tuning guide. The Fiesta will be very similar minus some boost tuning.

Is there a guide for the Fiesta?

There's a Fiesta addendum in the same guide.

Wow, I just read though some of this and I dont understand any of it. It looks like you would have to be a engineer to understand all of these settings. I thought that all I would have to do is load a certain MAP but it appears that I would have to have an indepth understanding on all of these very technical terms to use the AP. I was really looking for directions on how to actually use this thing. I havent found anything except a few quick videos.

You dont need to understand any of this if you just want to use the AccessPort with the off-the-shelf maps. You do need to understand this if you purchase the AccessTuner add-on software and want to customize the maps.

This guide is only for Accesstuner to make custom maps. However, the Accessport comes pre-loaded with maps for certain modifications, so you don't need to make your own map. Also, if you do other modifications, we have an entire Protuning network that can make the custom map for you! No need to understand the details if all you want to do is flash and then drive your car.
