Not sure about zf mapping Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88765-zf-throttle-blip-on-downshifts/#findComment-1486761 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works we'll and stops it feeling jerky. BUT it has monster cams and is a bit loud and rough. So different to my F6. BUT a slight press on the throttle and the tyres just smoke, no lag just instant power Edited 21/07/14 01:56 PM by arronm Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88765-zf-throttle-blip-on-downshifts/#findComment-1486785 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be wrong though. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88765-zf-throttle-blip-on-downshifts/#findComment-1487076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
