It appears thet Motec have today released the mapping software to enable end users to map FBW. In the past Motec have only done this in house, presumably because A: It's hard, and B: It could lead to safety issues. Whatever, they have now released the software, so for those who fancy a play it's here:

 

The Release of DBW4 Manager Software is available from the MoTeC software website:

Important Notes - SAFETY

- It is important to configure DBW-4 as a "Drive By Wire" with the Motec DBW-4 Manager when

used in a drive by wire application to ensure that all safety features are enabled.

- Take care during calibration of the DBW-4, ensure that the throttle body motors are disabled/

disconnected when adjusting the butterfly by hand.

 

If anyone just wants a look see at the user manual without installing the software I have bunged it here:
