    did not know that, just gonna switch back to 2.22 to save any hassles. didn't really see any new features on it that would make it worth my time.

    I've read that ve isn't as accurate @ higher RPMS. Great latency @ idle and cruising, but it doesn't compete w/ how the maf sensor reads @ WOT.

    Possibly have him dial in STFTs and LTFTs from idle to roughly 3500 rpm, then have MAF take over from there?
    PE is all MAF unless you have disabled the stock MAF and are running speed density. The STFTs are so far out of wack that the LTFT wont even stabilize. Get those MAF tables worked on quickly before you blow that thing up. The most knock is at part throttle it saw 20*of KR a few times. The car is going crazy lean according to the positive STFTs for the most part. 90% of the issues here will be solved by well constructed MAF tables.

    Well you made it sound like you would have to rewrite the entire scanner program or something lol. A histo for AFR error has like two values in it.

    Haha

    HPT just hates our cars...

    When ever I scan a LNF and try connecting back to my car I need to completely uninstall HPT and reinstall in order for it to work.

    Rootbeer has the tools all in front of him to dial in his cruising maf.
    He created a maf tune via 04REDLINE'S write up on the RLFORUMS.

    Then

    Worry bout WOT later; can the stock muffler and throw meth at it.

    It's fine. I haven't had a bug yet. You need the Beta to do any 09+ car anyhow.

    In all honesty Andrew I would let Flit step up and fix his mistake thats on YOUR car. This is his issue as to why your car is sitting with this tune. Make him fix it.

    Your making it sound like I havn't offered to finish the tune.

    He's roughly in the middle of both yourself and I.

    In all honesty, Andrew seems to be the type who wants to try and take matters into his own hands. The help will always be offered on my end, and yours considering your concern.

    Last time I'm going to mention this, cause you seem to like to spread rumors. The night I tuned his car, he was not knocking FYI. What ever has happened since then I don't really know much about other than he's made a few changes to spark, and has been playing w/ cruising MAF.

    You fail at reading, the reason for his knock in that log isnt my doing.

    Oh no, of course not. Knock just magically appears
    These are the results from your tune. Kinda hard to say it isn't your doing.
    But if you want to keep telling yourself that its not your fault, So be it.
    This isn't on my conscience. Whatever lets you sleep better at night.
    Also, that second log is from the dyno day. To my understanding thats all you.
    Don't know if you want to play the "but thats 4th gear" card. This is still no excuse.


    This is the log from the Dyno day.

    That is what I am saying. Just do it. Get it done. Heck I'll do it if he will pay me so I can buy the credits to license the file.
