If anyone has a custom OS for speed density on a P01 ECU with a usable XDF, that would be amazing as well! Thanks guys

You will need a matching COS to use one of those XDF's. They will not work with a stock BIN file.

Since COS's from tools like HPT and EFI Live do not contain any type of calibration data you would need to find one that's been setup already(and is compatible with the XDF) as there could be settings the COS needs filled in that would not be in the XDF if you tried to populate the raw COS yourself. I'm not sure on things like the COS1 but for any of the COS's that have extended boost tables you need to do a complete OS flash every time you make a change in any of the settings as tables have been moved outside of the "OEM" calibration data range and none of the free tools avaible would correctly flash the calibration data range for a COS.
