Tune #2 (not including the base calibration)

All I have to say is...this tune is made of LuLz!!!!

1) Idle has never been this steady even with a stock engine and tune.
2) Everything in general is smoother across all RPM's.
3) I'm detecting some definate power increase here.

I gotta dyno this thing after the final tune for S&G's...

Mine was really smooth too this is #3 for me.
Now if i would just learn to put the pedal to the floor for the WOT logs it should help. lol Looked at my log after the tune and the furthest I got was 60% accell pedal pos. SMH
I'll give her all she's got next time MM thanks for workin with it.

That may not entirely be your fault.

IIRC the Throttle Position only reads 66% max when WOT

The Acceleration Pedal will read 99.45%

Sorry I can't remember which one Jeff wants for his datalogs.

Oh and another thing, there is a good chance your RPM gauge is off +- 200-500 rpm

My rpm gauge will read 9000 rpm while the Cobb will be reading less than 8500 rpm

On your WOT hold that pedal down till it hurts ...

Just make sure it's your Accel Pedal Position and not the Throttle Position you are logging.

I believe my Accel Pedal reads 100%...at least thats what I saw at one point. I need to find a different road to log on. The highways here have to many high points with few flat stretches of road so the cruises and WOT runs will obviously show a slight change in AFR during the incline and decline. I must of confused some of the cops parked on the highway cause they kept seeing me drive by at 66 mph trying to get a steady cruise log for 30 seconds.

The even bigger issue was doing the WOT log with no cops to harrass me. They must have all called each other to share a box of doughnuts.

PM's will do nothing...he's stated before that e-mail and google talk are the only two forms of acceptable communication. So either e-mail him or wait till the next session.
