The green cruise control light (the one that lights up when you turn your cc on) will flash 3 times to confirm that you've loaded in map 3. That's it, you're done. You have to remember which map is in which slot, of course.
With the Cobb AP, you'd have to connect the AP device up to your OBDII port and load the desired map via the device.
I'm not 100% on this, but I seem to recall that Uprev's software doesn't allow for the rev limit to be set at zero. I watched Sharif when he did it, and he had to input a range of min and max rpm. I don't think the sw allows you to set both at zero. He also called Uprev and checked with them for the best way to do it, and they recommended just setting the rev limit at 1k. Personally, I wouldn't want it set at zero, because there are rare instances when I do want to leave the car running at idle, but need to walk away. In fact, just this morning on my way to the gym I stopped off at a bank machine. It was nice to be able to just pull up next to the machine, load the anti-theft map, and go use the bank machine real quick. It was 5am and nobody was around. But if someone jumped in and tried to drive off, they wouldn't have been able to. Or maybe if you live in a cold area and want to warm up your car in the driveway, you could load the anti-theft map and go back inside and finish your coffee without having to worry. You could and should lock your door if you do that, of course. But it's still nice to know that if some jerk saw your car sitting there idling in the driveway and smashed the window to get in and drive off. D'oh! Surprise! The motor's running but you can't go anywhere!

Given the car starts and revs past 1.5K (or is it 2.5K, then idles down...wouldn't that kill it on startup?
