I have had a lot of help putting together my base tune for my newly rebuilt engine. No major changes internally, my engine builder just replaced the pistons (one had a hole in it) and there was no need to bore the engine. He also noticed that the values were in need of replacement, besides those replacements nothing else was touched internally.
Because of my previous experience I am extremely gun shy and I want to make sure I start out right and then I want to continue to make adjustments until I feel it is street ready and then I want to get it race ready.
My logs look a little bit odd when it shows 1.9 - 2.1 boost level idling but when you look at the dash display it show nothing (blank is 0). That is suggesting to me maybe my log .cnf files aren't right. I downloaded gmtech16450z .cfg and VCM Editor.cfg files and am using those files. I haven't change out the VCM Scanner.cfg (it wasn't available in the forum I could find), which I think has something to do with the placement of the graphs, so I am still using the stock version for that file. Needless to say my graphs don't fit. Right now that isn't my concern because I'm not really looking at the graph display.
My initial question is: Is there something odd/wrong with my .cfg files that is causing my boost # in the logs not to match my dash display which seems correct - at least at idle. Also do you think there is anything else I should be logging, especially when start to tune a newly built engine?
I attached my one log file that shows the boost levels. I have only attached it so you can see what I mean about the boost level at idle.
Let me know what you think is wrong, thanks.
