Default MSPNP HighRes firmware images

For those interested in upgrading their MSPNP to HighRes but don't want to have to mess with EasyTherm, I have created firmware images that have been modified to suit the MSPNP. The page covers 90-95 and includes firmware images for setups with and without the AFM/MAF:

HighRes firmware images for MSPNP

It is hosted on another site where I can easily make changes if needed for newer versions. On here I can't seem to edit my posts after the thread gets replies.

Hope this helps someone!

Cheers

Cool, just did this. You might want to add the capacitor mod as mine had the tach drop out without it.

it would have been really thoughtful to include the therm files so the temperatures are outputted correct on your tuning laptop.....because one still has to "mess" with easytherm to both create them and/or upload the firmware.

It would have been really thoughtful if you had read the Flashing a MegaSquirt PNP to the HighRes firmware which is linked at the bottom of the page. If you follow this, you will re-use all your old project files (including the .inc files and download-firmware.bat) which are identical to the ones packaged with HighRes.

I thought this would be advantageous so people could still follow the documented way to reflash their firmware. You won't need EasyTherm, at all.

Cheers

Absolutely, thanks for the heads up! I will fix this in the next few days.

Thanks for the firmware images, worked great. One thing: the BoostDC gauge went missing in MegaTune with the new files. I followed this thread to fix it. You might want to make the change in the downloadable files. Thanks!

I have a regular v3 board with Braineack's mods and I'm running 029y4 successfully right now. Any hardware changes that i should be doing to use the HR10g code?

No mods needed to run 10G, just reflash.

Nope. I had one mild misfire in boost, which I think was spark blowing out, but I'll be adding the cap after further testing. I may run over to DIY and just have them do it for the peace of mind.

Sweet. I just spent the last 45 minutes hand copying everything over to a hi rez msq. Did everything by hand including the ve and spark tables. Taking no chances.

You didn't hear? The HR10g code cured the issue that made us hand copy

I simply reflashed, reloaded my original MSQ, tuned, and BAM.

No, and thanks for telling me now. Dick.

Here's the sad part. I did all that on my desktop. Now I have to figure out how to get the folder on this old laptop. Guess it's time to run the windows networking wizard
