You can't burn a "project" to the chip.

That was it! I saved the project not the bianary. Just saved teh bianary and the chip is programming! I'm so excited!

I did some playing with the cold idle that I'm anxious to see how it works with it being so cold here lately. As well as hopefully some mileage tuning. We'll see how it works tomorrow morning!

Awesome!

It has just begun.......

Yeah pretty much! The problem is I'm not sure where to begin! I want to max everything out and make a bunch of power but at the same time I don't want to blow it up! LOL! Though with crower rods, head, and main studs, and fire rings I think it's going to be a bit more forgiving than most.

Patience young grasshoppah!

Also remember, ask questions when in doubt.

I am not clear how to save the binary. I have 4 tunes I want to try and they were saved as Projects with .pxp at the end. Any help is much appreciated.

Thank you.

File -> Save calibration as... -> change name of calibration and hit save.

Thank you.

I did that and the file size is 1KB, versus the original 221KB. Does this sound right?

Thank you, again.

No, that does not sound right.

Hmm, you sure that you arn't trying to save it as a project. That is the only way It should read that small. Make sure you are hitting - "Save Calibration as..." and not "save project as"

That did it for me. Thank you!

OK so now I've got the new phoenix software version since I wiped and reloaded my harddrive. How it appears the new software is looking for a .efu file when I try to load my files on the chip but all my files, including the new one I just created, are all .bin files so it won't see them. I tried to just rename the file as a .efu but that didn't work either. I got an error message. How do I get the programmer to see the files I want to program onto my chip?
