If that is so then why do both the M64.01(normal) and M64.03(RS) have the same DME?

I do believe that the timing and map is likely more aggressive as the RS is spec'd for 98 and the C2 95 octane, it's true that the DMEs all contain multiple maps that are accessed via jumpers in the harness, perhaps that is the answer
