Ok, so this is a question to folks that've tuned the ECU. Given below are ECU part nos. that are used on V4s that've come with aftermarket exhausts such as the Akra, Termi etc. from the factory. The EXUP and EVAP do not appear in these stock. I'd appreciate if someone can point the corresponding exhausts and airfilter used in them.

ECU Part No:
CAQD2630_D263031|ABABL1
CAQD2630_D263031|ABACL1
CAQD2630_D263031|ABACM1

In the Woolich ETV Restriction maps, the numbers go right upto 102.8@ 11400 Rpm and go down from there on. What no. corresponds to a fully open valve? Any insight on how this number corresponds to the throttle valve opening would be welcome. Thank you.
 
What Woolich calls an ETV restriction map has nothing to do with the actual throttle valves. So there is actually no answer to your question existing.
 
Confirm. I have the Woolich setup and it is essentially useless for actual tuning. I’ve talked to Woolich directly and they really have no idea on the Ducatis. I don’t know who does their reverse engineering, but it is severely lacking in the task. I gave up and went with Daniel’s setup (Deussen Engines)
 
I think the big problem with Woolich, and why I didn't go with them; is that there's a huge learning curve. Unless you have a lot of dyno and tuning experience with the exact application you're tuning, or easy access to same, it's just not as easy of a solution as first made out to be.

Are you aware of which exhaust and airfilter ducati provides for these ecu part nos?

While there might not be a direct correlation with actual throttle values, there is a purpose behind the nos. On the map, as different exhaust systems have diff maps. I'm looking for that info. Thank you.

True, it's a learning curve as I did on all my jap bikes earlier with woolich. Make small changes, one at a time, compare with the less restricted maps and slowly get there. However it is possible. Not rocket science. Takes time and patience.

I found it pretty easy to use if just using Autotune, and some other minor changes like setting rpm limits, toggling evaporate systems etc…but it’s no substitute for Daniel

Actually it isn’t possible as Woolich doesn’t include the plethora of tables required to tune the current ECU. Previous bikes of all makes were very simple TPS-RPM tables for fuel and timing. The new Ducati ECU structure is based on the most current automotive ECUs that are Load, Torque, & Request based. There is no traditional TPS value, rather the twist grip input is a request applied to the related Torque and Load output tables, where the actual output is referenced from the table axis cell while also applied to and limited by more Torque and Load Limit tables.

I’m guessing the reverse engineers for Woolich found a few tables that resembled what they were familiar with and stopped there.
