-This page outlines the differences in our V3Lite and Full V3 packages. ​ Keep in mind that even if you go with V3Lite, you can always upgrade to the full package later with a simple download from our website! 
  
-   ^ V3Lite ^ V3 ^Description ​ ^ + 
-|  **Greatly enhanced logging**|  ​✔  ​|  ​✔  ​|Logging speeds in excess of 1000 samples per second, MUCH faster than the factory interface and with far more data options.| +Although we no longer offer V3Lite for the DSM platform, this page is still useful for those that already have V3Lite and may be considering an upgrade to full V3 or for those that are considering the EVO1-3/​GSR/​RVR package (which is effectively V3Lite). This page summarizes the differences between these two versions.

Useful when you want to maintain closed loop operation above 80mph on a 1G, for example, or idle in open loop but cruise in closed loop or just to extend the areas where you collect closed loop data for dialin. | 
 +|  **Auto MAF compensation** ​  ​| ​ {{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |  {{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |An [[:​v3mafadjcombft|extremely useful tool]] for getting those fuel trims inline quick and easy.

 +|  **Hot start enrichment** ​  ​| ​ |  {{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |ECMLink provides an enrichment function when the engine is started while hot. If you find that you need this function because your engine seems to run lean when started hot, then check this box. | 
 +|  **MAF sensor simulation** ​  ​| ​ |  {{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |Allows you to run a nice, smooth factory MAF for all your idle and cruise functions and then switch to pseudo SD when the MAF sensor is about to over run. This function basically disables the MAF under high boost and simulates and extrapolates airflow automatically. | 
 +|  **Switchable secondary maps** ​  ​|  |  ​{{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ ​|Switch in a second set of base timing and fuel maps. Can be activated manually with a switch on the dash or automatically ​based on criteria you define. |

 +|  **Individual deadtime control** ​  ​| ​ |  {{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |Adjust ​the deadtime of each injector individually. Makes for smoother idle and better fuel control at cruise with large injectors. | 
 +|  **High resolution deadtime**   ​|  |  ​{{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |Nearly four times the resolution in deadtime control compared to factory. Further improves idle quality ​and possibly mileage too! | 
 +|  **Gear-based boost control** ​  ​| ​ |  {{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |Full [[:​boostcontrol|boost control]] functionality with gear-based operation. | 
 +|  **Flex-fuel sensor operation**   ​|  |  ​{{https://​www.ecmtuning.com/​images/​checkmark.gif?​direct&​}} ​ |Supports running ​GM-style flex fuel sensor to automatically adjust for ethanol content of your fuel.  Fill up with E85 or top-off with gasoline...it won't matter. And you can define two separate tunes for two different points on the ethanol curve and let the ECU interpolate between them. |
