Here is a work in progress:

Here is the new link to the Tuning Guide.

The Guide

PLEASE do not link it out to other sites until we have a final cut done, I do not want any blood on my hands if someone out there follows it and it is not clear enough, and they blow something up! Thanks Guys.

BTW -> I appreciate the press on it, but I want to refine it before I "publish" it to the world, so I changed the link to get it off the other FOUR boards it made it to in less than ONE HOUR!!!


link does not work for me.
FYI - brings me to search engine

Vey nice job. I have read that in the past and it is well done. Except for a couple things that can be a bit confusing as far as the text goes.

You say.
In my example, from 2000 - 2999 I have an average of 2835.25 Open VCM Editor, open your bin, then choose Engine, Airflow, and select MAF Air Flow vs. Frequency. Look at the value for the 2835 ( or closet to it).

If you actually look at the table you provide the closest frequency to 2835 is 2875 and the value in there is 1.01.

You say.
The value is currently set at 0.84 & we know that this car is rich at idle.

The value of .84 is actually in the 2625 cell.

I think you should change this "I have an average of 2835.25"
to say this "I have an average of 2635.25"

Then change this "Look at the value for the 2835 ( or closet to it)."
to say this "Look at the value for the 2635 (or close to it).

OK sorry for nid picking. But you asked.
I must say I've read many tuning guides and this is by far the best guide I've come across for the V6 guys. Gary thanks for providing this information.

I was thinking Gary stickied it, but I forgot he was never an admin or mod capable of doing that. Who did sticky this?
