I've learned your technical prowess cannot be trusted without verification.

Let us not forget:

To be blunt: What is called the "ETV Restriction” in the WRT software has no direct connection to the ETV control. I do not mean to offend you in any way but your understanding of the system and tables is at a similar level as Woolich support seems to have. Yes, you see an effect by changing parameters in this table for sure but there is no need to even touch the rev limiter because of these changes and there is no direct link to cylinder pressure. The only real impact to cylinder pressure comes from spark advance changes and this table has no impact on Spark advance at all. And touching the Spark advance maps at full load is really not needed as the Spark mapping is pretty much spot on from the factory. I think it’s for sure fun to tinker with a system like this and make some adjustments based on your personal preferences. As long as you don’t make any drastic changes you are likely to be fine and not trigger any torque monitoring.

BTW, there is no speed limiting. Some USA models have a power limit in the OEM map but Woolich is not displaying this table in the software so you cannot disable it.

I sure can comment. My main comment is that Woolich is lacking a great amount of general understanding of these ECUs. Clearly Woolich must have missed that the Pani V4 MY22 and up now has 4 engine power modes versus 3 for the older models. To me it looks like all they do with a new software version is copy table definitions from older versions over without any validation work on a bike.

I have no personal interest in making their software any better. I invested a lot of time in expanding my understanding of this ECU Software and I share it only with with very few people in the tuning industry that I collaborate with and that I can trust.

Woolich did misname one of the restriction maps. But it was regardless a restriction map. There is no documentation on the software. You have to work you way thru it as I did and write changes then evaluate and write more changes, evaliuate some more etc.. Takes awhile to understand all the tuneability that exists . I get Daniel not wanting to help anyone as this is his livelihood but in reality I found his telling me early on when I made an erroneous assumption helpful. Lots of hierarchy and interconnection between the various maps. But eventually it all became clear. At this point I have what I wanted, an understanding of the bike to a level that I'm not dependent on anyone else, not for software, not for chassis tuning, not for troubleshooting, none of it. And you will continue to be dependent on others. Just a different approach to life. Your comments did help me make a decision about whether or not to discuss my cylinder head porting changes. It will not benefit any of you really, but if the tuners recognize what I've done is useful they'll simply steal it and then sell it back to you. And I'm in the midst of engineering another change that I think several of you would benefit from but if I post the design I expect I will have the same issue in that someone will decide to start selling it.
