    2.5 Bar Custom OS VE question

    I used the VE generator(really neat program btw) to create a VE map for my G8 from its current tune so I could begin tuning the ve tables. Ive attached the tune and would really appreciate if you guys could check it out an tell me if it looks like a good starting point. I do have one question about the area over 105kpa. Will the ve generator extrapolate the area over 105 kpa or should I just add a percentage (I was thinking 10%) and tune from there?

    Thanks guys

    Is this a forced induction motor? Do you NEED to go past 105 Kpa?

    Why not just change the axis labels and make it a high res 1 bar table?

    Sorry I guess I should have mentioned my mods, 09 G8 TVS2300 with a 3.1 pulley, LTs, CAI, and soon to be installed cam (218/230 .600 115+2). I guess I could still run MAF only but I like the idea of having some form of fuel control related to boost and the fan control is nice too .

    I run my turbo Z06 on MAF only and still have accurate fueling when I change boost levels.



    Truth be told, I've been too lazy to dial in SD. I don't get paid to tune my own car so I slack off on it.

    Lol. What are the real disadvantages to running MAF only as opposed to MAF/VE?

    I'm sure you're pushing more boost than I am so I guess MAF only isn't so bad after all.
