    Throttle Closing - End of all questions - COME IN

    I want to have a thread, centralized around helping others with throttle closing issues. I've searched for days and have YET to find all the answers.
    I'm currently tuning a FBO ATSV and i'm having issues with it closing and boost not doing what i want... I have no idea why as i've tried just about everything i know, short of tricking the EQ ration / Airmass tables which you really dont want to do.

    What are some guys finding that will hinder throttle issues and boost issues on these cars.

    Nobody has posted or found 100% fixes, i want to get to the bottom of this to help other people. so please share and post your experience.

    The throttle is closing because Actual Boost is exceeding Desired Boost. So you need to increase Desired Boost via a combination of changes to the Driver Demand, Knock Airmass and some other tables.
