I am 90% sure its not an auto bin man, this thing wont even run on an auto pcm. not to mention timing too high and its not really 2 bar by the initial looks, its just a hacked 1 bar at best.

on the last 304 turbo I tuneed I ran about 16 deg at 10psi boost and even then I thought I Was pushing it lol but it wasnt pinging and went like a bullet. stock 300,000km unopened 304 + T04Z + intercooler + 62lb seimens deka injectors = powa
it runs and drives...
not very well but it does
i bet its not 2 bar either..
Looks like im back to square one.

put a paperclip between the 5th and 6th pins accross on the top row of the diag plug under the drivers dash.

I could have made you something up if it was manual, but I dotn have any real 2 bar auto bins available for me to dump a calibration into

I dont think it is a vr manual , have a look at aldl section it does not make sense .
How did you read the bin ,did you read it with flash tool, eprom programmer ,or is this how it was given to you as a file.

i used flash tool
while loading into the pcm, done a long search then said PCM wasnt verified..
***unknown PCM Details***************
unknown read bytes 64
etc

i saved the PCM log if anyone want to see it??

being a vr auto ecu running the wrong kind of code the flashtool may not notice what it is depending on how the ecu is processing the code manual tunes do run in the auto ecu but how they see life inside there is another issue

With the flash tool go into custom setup and change rom mapping to 0000 - ffff ,then hit get bin tab , you should get a 512 k bin .Post this up and we will probably be able to id it for you.
