KManager speedo correction cap at +/- 50%

Would it be possible to raise this cap in a later release of Kmanager? I'm running a PPG gearset that requires about +68% correction. I can use a speedohealer type product to correct it but it would be preferable to correct directly in KManager.

Is this something you guys can add or is there a technical limitation that caps it at 50%?

Thanks

Great, that was fast, thanks!
Is there a new cap or did you just remove it?

+- 80%. If we go too close to -100% strange things start to happen.

Gotcha. Any chance you can go higher on the positive side? Redid my math and I may need closer to +100%

Quick follow on question for this. As an interim fix I'm running a pulse doubler between the VSS and the Kpro then correcting -8% in KManager. This works fine for the speedo to be correct but gear calculation is incorrect.

It's an AP2 s2000 with the PPG synchro gearset and a 3.90 final drive so I have entered the ratios (as per PPG docs) and final drive is entered as 4.711 (my final drive * AP2 reduction gear)

Gears 1-6 read 1,1,3,4,5,5 when datalogged with third gear flickering between 2 and 3 in the logs.

Is my problem that pulse correction must be done in the Kpro for the gear calculation to be accurate? (As per this thread http://www.hondata.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=13732)

If so, do you have a rough idea of when the new software will be ready? :)
Thanks

Sounds good. I'll take that as a 'yes' to the gear calc question. ;)
