Arrow Gts roar with bm3

Am i able to adjust the gts roar rpm during start up? Referring to the ots map that bm3 has. I saw a “custom” setting next to the cold start section.

The GTS roar is an ON/OFF feature that is separate from the cold start setting; no customization for the GTS Roar.

The "custom part" you're referring to is most likely the cold start RPM idle. I have mine to GTS Roar=yes, Cold Start=yes, Cold Start RPM=950.

Isn't the roar just the muffler flaps open briefly while the engine starts then the valves close. ?

Could be. I'm not sure on the specifics of what the software tells the car to do during that one or two seconds. But it sure does sound delicious.

I got BM3 solely to eliminate the cold start. However, I loved the GTS roar so much that I decided to keep the roar and just tone down my cold start a bit.

I've got BM3 with the GTS file. The roar is only about .5 seconds. About the same amount of time that my Corvette did during start up... Just a different sound from a big liter V8 to the inline six.

I too love the ability to turn off the cold start.

The GTS roar is only for about .5 seconds. I had a different manufacturers tune and it could be modified to hold for as long as 2 seconds. I found the BM3 version to be too quiet/quick but I am used to it now and the rest of the platform/tune more than makes up for it.

I bet it will be a feature soon enough. They seem to love adding features!

correct me if I'm wrong, but i thought GTS roar was on by default. is there a way to turn it "off"? I don't see a toggle for it anywhere on the Config page.

a great feature would be the ability to program the mode that comes on by default when you start the car. The GTS roar sounds weird in efficient; however if I select Sport + before starting the engine, it sounds great.

Go to map editor. you can change the Exhaust Flap efficient parameters. Exhaust Flap 1,2,3 change them to open.

When should we be seeing these updates? Cause my GTS Roar is inconsistent sometimes, as are my burbles.

Sounds identical to my non-ZCP with the tune. Sounds better when car is warm as it goes vroom then idle comes down as cold start is off.

Is there a way to turn start up roar on/off on the fly? I was hoping the Diagnostics > Exhaust Valve Actuation > CLOSE would prevent start up roar (for when I want it to start quietly) but it doesn't seem to intervene with start up roar, only with driving operation. proTUNING Freaks
