What's new in WinOLS? | Update 5.91

Whether you're tuning maps on the dyno or building definition/DAMOS files from scratch, WinOLS remains the gold standard when it comes to ECU map editing software, and it just got a little bit better.

This WinOLS 5.91 update is a small but useful release, with two new layer-related workflow features and one bug fix.

Download The Free WinOLS Demo

If you're new to WinOLS or want to follow along with the WinOLS Mastery: Map Identification & Editing course before committing to the full software, EVC offers a free WinOLS demo download.

The demo version is pared down compared to the full paid version, but it is still useful for learning the WinOLS workflow, loading example files and practising the same map identification and editing techniques shown in the HPA course material. HPA’s WinOLS course also includes test files that can be loaded into the free demo, allowing you to get hands-on rather than just watching the lessons.

You can learn more about getting started with the demo version here: WinOLS Free Demo Download.
