Newbie here help please

Hello guys
New on these forums to do some research hope you can help me out here

My dad has told me to do some research. He owns a tuning garage and his background is remapping aftermarket ecus such as Omex, DTA, Motech, Emarald , Apexi etc etc. he live maps on the Dyno and also tunes old school carburettor engines.

He and I both want to know how to live map standard ecus. We're not really interested in flashing ecus with generic maps etc, we need to live map on the Dyno in real time.

Cars we would mainly like to map would be the VAG range such as Leon cupra r, golf gti, etc.

I have a Leon cupra r 1.8t at the moment ( I believe Bosch me7 ecu?)

In a nutshell, what hardware is needed to LIVE map the VAG range of cars ? Also what software is needed? Is the software free?

Any help or input much appreciated guys, I will be sticking around for plenty of research !

From what I've read so far. I could access ecu with kessv2? And remap with winols?

Cheers

You will need an emulator to live map oem ecu's such as OLS300...
and they will only work on the older ecu types such as edc15, for edc16 and edc17 so far its impossible to do live...
i dont know about the me or med series though, so maybe someone else could tell you more about these...

So say the BAM engine uses a Bosch Me7.5 ecu?
Is this one of the older types ?
By emulator , do you mean hardware or software? Which one is best? Also what else would I need ?
