Ok, so I have my DHP 1.5 code (via Powrtuner), 180* t-stat, -1 heat range plugs, 3.4" pulley, and an open cone.

I've been collecting scans over the past few days, and tried to neaten them up a little bit:

Thoughts? Most importantly, is there any call for major changes before hitting the track tonight? Confused

I like the KR, at least for not having fine-tuned anything. I understand that the O2 readings should be ~20-30mv lower @WOT, and the LTFTs somewhat higher while cruising. Both should be affected (in a desirable fashion) by dropping my MAF g/sec or, injector flow rate msec/g in the PCM, correct? Is one table preferred over the other? I have an AFC-to-g/sec converter (thanks for that cartechpr thread, Shawn!), so that might be easier. And I'm a little confused as to why my LTFTs jump negative when advancing in gears...

Thanks!

Brian

damn Brian - that looks even richer than mine was! What is your PE base vesus ECT set to? You can lean it out in SMALL amounts using the Add vs RPM table under PE.

I wouls really like to see some screen caps of your tune...Any chance you could grab some and email them to me?

Why is the injector pulse width so high during WOT?

-40*F: 9.65
-22: 11.14
-4: 11.6
14: 11.6
32: 11.6
50: 11.6
68: 11.95
The above is stock, then at 86*F and up, it's 11.8.

You need to dial in your fuel. Your LTFT's are way out of whack. Have you been putting the motor in SD mode when you scan?

Sorry, Speed Density. Disabling the MAF and letting the computer run the motor using the MAP sensor instead of the MAF. It makes for more accurate logging (with LS1's at least, I can't see it being any different with the L67).

I have been at it ALL day. I finally got all of the LTFT's between -1 & +2, right up until I reconect the MAF. Then it all goes to hell in a handbasket! They all go back to -19, -12, so forth...Do I have to scale the maf table in some manner in order to keep the LTFT's in line?

It sounds to me like you're never entering SD mode, so your numbers are skewed. Instead of just unplugging the MAF, go in and under your general general diagnostics set your MAF Sensor Fail Frequency to 0 (in hptuners anyways, but any other editor should have a that option although it may be in another place).

Well I think after tonight I'm going to split my PCM code to my daily-driver version, and a race-version. The first difference being the absence of ALL torque management in the race-version. The DD version will have it to save the car from me being stupid. Tonight, my LTFTs at WOT were mostly -4.7 until (apparently) timing was pulled by TQM (when going to 3rd gear), at which point it would jump to -11.7. I'd like to see what happens w/o TQM. Scans will come later.

Of course I didn't scan my best run, but I do have one for my second best run, which was my first of the night: 14.461@95.90, 2.175 60' (88RH, 78*F).
My best run was 14.367@96.17, 2.165 60' (100RH, 73*F). I might need a helmet if I can do a little more tweaking and drop that 60' under 2.0. Twisted Evil

Ahh! That explains it. See I didn't realize that your car had Torque management. Disable it for tuning purposes.

There's that, and I found something regarding the PE_RPM_vs_TIME_A/F table that I'm going to try.
