Jayme wrote:yeah nothing wrong with the calcVE itself... its all about how you use it, for example if you flit through a VE cell briefly during Decel, the wideband reading is going to be waaaaaaay off reality.. and so will the calcVE reading. if you use that log in a histogram then copy the calcVE histogram over your VE table, then that cell will by a big incorrect spike. thats why I tend to use the monitor window, you can exclude the cells that are bullshitting to you.
yeah this is why I look at the data in different ways, sample counts, min/max, averages and most recent then include cross referencing to the monitors so I can make sense of the "quality" of the data and copy over what I want.

The first few runs I just copy the lot as an average as that is a way better starting point than the stock VE table.

This tune only had 2 runs over the VE table to get it in the ball park. Some spikes from hunting and rev limiter there too.

Shouldn't you really use a hub-centric type spacer?

Do they make one of those driveshafts in your required length?
So, this has been playing on my mind for a while, I had these made, should do the trick...

It really is quiet unbelievable how much weight it has lost, I can't wait to see what the final numbers are. Performance wise you'd get better gains from the diet than just adding more power.
