this I cant wait for!
Introducing the Spark Cut patch, finally a solution for SST Boost of the line
Hey everyone,
After a short testing phase it is finally time to release my spark cut patch to the public, just in time for the DSM Shootout!
Warning! Repeated launches in quick succession will harm your clutches and/or your transmission. Staying on the rev limiter for an extended amount of time will cause component fatigue and failure.

Missing your rom and want to be a test car? PM me and I’ll get you set up with a patch
Cost:
In this one he's using the launch maps from Tephramod V3, building 10psi
Here's him launching his car on 15 PSI
Here's some tests on my personal car
Here's a log of my stock turbo car testing it

What this patch does:
- Uses the current fuel cut rpm to enact an addition spark cut rev limiter as either a primary or secondary rev limiter for the car.
- The main spark cut rev limiter is variable for cars running Tephramod V2 or V3, using the current rev limiter for the map slot as the basis for the rev limiter.
- Also adds the ability to use a spark cut rev limiter as the main stationary rev limiter, instead of the factory fuel cut for 5mt cars.
- Allows SST cars to build boost off the line, allowing them to launch harder with the turbo already spooling instead of waiting for it to spool after launching.
- The stationary rev limiter of this patch is very similar to the stationary rev limiter on the GSR's except it doesn't look for the clutch switch. Once it reaches the preset rpm it tells the coils to not charge, thus they can't spark until after the rpm drops below the threshold and then it repeats, very quickly building boost. In the case of the SST cars with launch control, it keeps the RPM just shy of the throttle closure rpm, building boost and still letting it launch.
- For the main rev limiter, it uses the current fuel cut rev limiter RPM as the basis of its calculations. Due to the nature of how the ECU does math and rounding it is not a straightforward calculation. I have attached a program that will calculate the spark cut RPM given a fuel cut RPM and the entered multiplier.
- The rev limiter was done in this manor so that if desired, then you could have a map using Tephramod V2/3 with a lower RPM than the main map, and still use the spark cut rev limiter. IE a valet mode.
- Download the .txt file that is associated with you ROM, Read the instructions and warning at the top of the file, copy the XML data into the XML for your rom, save and enable using the [ ] keys.
- When enabling the subroutine, Tephramod V2/3 users can use either the Tephra Rev Limiter setting or the Factory Setting. V1 and stock rom users use the Factory setting.
- The call to sub is the master on/off for the patch. However if the subroutine is left stock you will brick your ECU.
- After either the Divider or stationary rev limiter has been changed the subroutine will show “(no match)” That is normal.
- Do not change any of these settings until after the subroutine is set.
- By default the stationary rpm is set to 3000 RPM so that it can be safely tested without building much if any boost.
- The Divider is set to 1.05, this effectively disables the spark cut rev limiter, setting to as a failsafe for the fuel cut rev limiter.
- With the Fuel cut rev limiter set to the default 7599 and the Divider set to 1.11 the rev limiter will be just more than 7500
- On a 5MT car the stationary can be set to the default of 5500, however the stationary rev limiter under limits will need to be raised.
- On a SST car it needs to be set below the throttle closure RPM for the launch control, in testing we found 4500-4600 to be the most effective setting. On a stock 2.0 with a 5858 we built 3-5 psi depending on outside temperature, with no additional tuning.
- This patch has been fully tested with Rax V2/3 with no issues.
- Tephramod V1/2/3 all work as expected.
- Stock turbo GSR with V2/3 Launch maps built 16psi of boost in .5s
- 2.0L Stock Block MR with a ETS 5858 built 3-5PSI without launch maps or other tuning. Picking up .3 on his 60’
- •2.0L Stock Block MR with a ETS 5858 built 15 PSI using Spark Cut and V3 launch maps

Missing your rom and want to be a test car? PM me and I’ll get you set up with a patch
Cost:
- This patch is released free of charge. However if you would like to donate for my time and effort my paypal is my [email protected] All donations are very appreciated.
- If you are a pro tuner and charge for the patch, please make a donation. I made this as easy to install as possible and would appreciate a cut for you making extra money for the extra effort I put in!
https://www.facebook.com/pandamotorworks/videos/1025413707489410
Thanks:
- Chet Rickman- Finding the Dwell logging information, which without this patch wouldn’t have happened.
- Nathan G – Being the first to test on a SST showing proof of concept
- Robert B- Being the first to launch with boost and testing V3 launch maps with the patch.
Issues:
- Only currently known issue is if the Chassis year and Ecu/Rom year are not the same, this causes an issue with the stationary rev limiter not disengaging. Currently testing on a fix, if you have this issue, PM me and I’ll create a custom patch for you.

QUESTION!!!
So, this patch uses spark cut. I thought this type of cut was lesser preferred to fuel cut?
Wont this increases EGT's significantly? along with putting a lot more heat/stress on the turbo? since it will be moving combustion out of the cylinder, into the manifold?
Sounds and looks awesome fun though!

If you sat on it for an extended period of time it might start hurting the turbo/manifold, but as long as it's used responsibly I would not expect any issues, hell it hasn't cracked my stock manifold yet and I've had it on my car for over a year now and a decent amount of 2 steps and shenanigans.QUESTION!!!

Like everything with this platform, it's going to be a use at your own risk type of thing.
Also we have tephras blessing if that says anything about it
I know its supposed to be used "responsibly" whatever that means lol.If you sat on it for an extended period of time it might start hurting the turbo/manifold, but as long as it's used responsibly I would not expect any issues, hell it hasn't cracked my stock manifold yet and I've had it on my car for over a year now and a decent amount of 2 steps and shenanigans.

I was just curious why fuel cut wasn't used instead of spark cut.
It really is amazing that your manifold hasn't cracked yet. I discovered cracks all over the inside of the runners on my stock mani when it was removed for the turbo upgrade. The stock heat shield also had carbon all over the inside from where exhaust gas was escaping.
Spark cut was used because that's what my friends with built drag cars use, and if they use it on their 4.2x 1/8 mile cars and their street cars, why not use it on my car
finally, theres hope. I cant wait to boost launch. that was beautiful sir! which kozmic clutch pack is in that MR?
you rather have spark cut than fuel cut. especially under full boost, you don't wanna cut the fuel, that could be catastrophic. unlike fuel cut, you also dump a lot more fuel but that's better than no fuel. that's just my opinion.I know its supposed to be used "responsibly" whatever that means lol.

I talked to the owner and he said it's their package that uses OEM frictions and steelsfinally, theres hope. I cant wait to boost launch. that was beautiful sir! which kozmic clutch pack is in that MR?
I am thoroughly impressed and excited as can be! I would love to put this patch to the test. the build is very similar to mine but I have a built motor along with a pte5858, kozmic sst overhaul with Dodson's clutch pack and a built t-case. I'm still on pump 93 and have yet ever hit the track, will do e85 soon. this would definitely be handy for a first time track run!I talked to the owner and he said it's their package that uses OEM frictions and steels
This sounds exciting! How do we get this?
I'm still doing test, however if either of you have something different than a 08 MR, 09 Ralliart or a 13-15 GSR/ Final edition PM me and we can go from there!
does it make a difference if mine is an 11 MR?I'm still doing test, however if either of you have something different than a 08 MR, 09 Ralliart or a 13-15 GSR/ Final edition PM me and we can go from there!
I gotta update to tephra v3 as well. been procrastinating lol :wallbash:
If you want to be the test car for that rom PM me 
still have lots of Roms to patch and gotta start somewhere. Also I'd prefer if you have the ability to benchflash just incase, but no requirement to
