Default car drives weak on cold morning

Now that I got a base map for my b20-v (neptune basemap) it would drives like timing is off. even at full throttle, it still super weak. feels like spark plug wire isnt plugg..but after it warms up, car feel perfectly fine and feels strong. but just the morning start up, car drives weak for a good 1 minute, after that 1 min, it's normal.....

could it be because I'm using single cam spark plugs wire? or bad base map?

it's because you're driving the car, plain and simple.

a basemap is NOT a map intended for you to drive the car on the regular. it is a BASEmap. the ONLY intention of a BASEmap is to get the car to a TUNEr to get the car TUNED, and to give the tuner a good BASE to start his tune from.

stop driving the damn car and go get it tuned immediately.

basemaps are intentionally set up rich and retarded for safety's sake. both of which cause it to be slow.

you NEED a tune.
