Popswitch
Turn exhaust pops and bangs on or off while driving, without reflashing.
Popswitch is one on/off control for exhaust pops and bangs, or a similar feature. It applies to every map slot. Turning it off in one slot turns it off in all of them. Turning it back on enables it again in every slot. How map slots themselves work is on the mapswitch page.
What the RPM needle shows
- Off. The needle sits at 7,000 rpm and map 5, the map with pops disabled, is active.
- On. The needle sits at 8,000 rpm or higher and the map in the current slot (map 1 to map 4) is used.
How do you toggle it?
Enter mapswitch mode first, using the method the file was built with.
- Brake and accelerator. Release the brake fully, press it again, hold it, then press the accelerator to the floor and release. Each press toggles pop mode.
- Cruise control. Press cancel once and release to enter popswitch mode. Use cruise + and cruise − to toggle it.
Which map is used?
With popswitch on, the selected slot (map 1 to map 4) runs. With it off, map 5 runs. Build map 5 as the quiet calibration, with pops and bangs disabled, and leave map 1 as the stock file.
