    Post LNF Bible

    Hoping this will become a sticky for LNF since we have so many great threads that have fallen to the dark and we keep seeing questions about them all the time.... im on the forum alot so as new developements arise i have no problem adding the information to this first post keeping this up to date.

    ***Information can be interpreted different ways between readers so as usual ask questions in the appropriate thread to clear any confusion and calibrate at your own risk!

    **These tables are powerful and important to the lnf. If you get carried away on these tables, the side effects can be odd or flat out unsafe. Adjust these at your own risk. It is highly recommended by many community members to have an high level of understanding in regards to table effects within the ecu. It is most often the case that one table is not just making a single change, but it is also effecting 2 to 3 other tables as well. It will be easier to understand the Opti Spark/Torque tables after practicing and learning the table interlinking effects with the more basic tables.

    haha ur definately old.....
    i tell you what though i will color the links just for you 8D

    ohnsetly its nice to have all the info in one accesible spot....also its not crowded with config files....although if we had a thread for lnf config files or custom histograms repository thread for lnf where everyone could see how we look at cams, ignition, fuel, and all that goodness. it would be a nice add to the list of threads.

    Try the 'Ethanol Fuel Blends Thread' link above before you call me old. Iz invented the interwebz before you waz borned, young'un. Back then we used BBS & 300 baud modems.

    None of them link directly in Chrome, can't even paste that one in with the dots in it.

    Updated this today....
    Im still watching the LNF VE thread grow to make sure its a proven calibration technique for the lnf.

    also if anyone wishes to help with the videos for the LSJ Platform i have some time again and wouldnt mind giving all the credit to someone who can help me hunt down lsj threads and refresh my memory for tuning them to help this go faster and be more accurate. i openly admit its not my strongest platform so help on this will bring a better end result.
    Thanks

    *update: add Aftermarket Turbo Section

    Request: If anyone with a Aftermarket Turbo wishes to help the community we could use a thread to help with what to expect when tuning for different turbo swaps and if you ran into a rare problem what happened and if possible what was causing it.
    Turbo Chargers Currently used: S20G-ET / BW EFR (ZFR) / S256-ET Bullseye Power/ Garrett GT/GTX series from 2876r-35r
    if you happen to have a holset or turbonetics we'd love to hear about those too!
