The 8 modes (programs)

The TurboLamik ships with eight driving programs, P1 to P8. Every one is freely configurable in TunerPro RT, so the names below are the base-map defaults, not fixed behaviour.

#ProgramTypical use
P1DriveDaily automatic
P2Drive SportSportier automatic: later shifts, firmer
P3Manual ComfortManual shifting, smooth
P4Manual SportManual shifting, firmer and faster
P5Manual Sport+Manual, aggressive
P6Manual DragDrag launches, full manual, trans-brake friendly
P7DriftNo auto-upshift, holds gear, virtual-clutch friendly
P8DynoLocked gear for dyno testing

What you actually set per program

Each program is a row in the program/selector table. The parameters that matter:

  • Auto vs manual — does the program upshift on its own, or only on your command.
  • Shift points — the speed and throttle thresholds for up and down shifts (auto programs).
  • Shift firmness / time — how fast and hard the shift is, set separately for up and down.
  • Start / end gear — the gear range the program will use (for example lock out 1st, cap at 6th).
  • Torque reduction — ask the ECU to cut torque during the shift for a cleaner change.
  • Converter lockup — when the torque converter locks.
  • AWD — behaviour on xDrive boxes.

Get the torque value right and run adaptation before you judge any program. A program that feels harsh is almost always a torque or adaptation problem, not the program. See troubleshooting.
