Both positive and negative injector spikes appeared randomly when the MAF was removed from the installation and changed to SD tune. Any time above 2000 RPM and 30% load, including steady state 100% load. Once in a while spark advance spikes at the same time + or - 10+ degrees. The spikes are 125 to 400ms wide,(200% duty cycle!), engine drops 50 to 300 RPM before recovering. No cats, no O2 sensors, burst knock disabled, transient fuel disabled, dynamic airflow and predictive coefficients disabled. Everything that can be disabled is disabled one step at a time, even oil starvation. No change. Many iterations of VVE tables from very smooth to very rough have been tried, even the stock GM table generates spikes when using speed density tunes.
Seven years ago Tick posted about this same issue, with no resolution found at that time. He was running turbocharged on alcohol, bending connecting rods from hydro locking with the large injectors required. This application is so basic that it is hard to imagine that HP Tuners can't handle it. Besides, many others are using SD tuning without this problem. What am I missing? What else can I try? Any suggestions are welcome.
LS7 crate motor and E67 controller, low rpm cam requiring starting and idle tune modification, otherwise stock. Knob adjustment of IAT for leaning at altitude. Using 77 degrees setting for tuning. Tune and log files attached.
