No. There are literally hundreds of maps on the ECU. For example, some later model Subarus can have between 500–1000 2d and 3d tables and many more 1d parameters. These maps are not labeled or defined in the ROM in any way and there is no available Subaru reference to aid in reverse engineering. The process to analyze ECU logic and add support for new tables can be complex and time consuming. You should always download and install the latest ECU definitions to take advantage of the latest table/ECU support and bug fixes.
