honestly i think its a bit of trial and error really .... when i first tested the line pressure mods i made the whole table 90 psi ... i reveresed out the driveway and as i was almost stopped i clicked it into drive (as you normally do in any car) and it just about snapped my neck :punk:

i then went round the block and found it was very fast shifting but i ended up changing it so it slowly ramped the pressures up from 0 kms rather than but 90 psi that low.

i think i decided anything over about 45km or something like that could be 90 psi

really you just need to get some changes in there and see what they do then tweak from there.

Fair enough. Ill make a note of that. I dont want anything drastic like shifting from 1st to 2nd and ending half way up my back rest. Im thinking a more mild version like taking a quarter of each shift change, but like you said itll be trail and error and im happy for that, just gotta get the dunger car running smoothly and test it round the block when no ones looking :D

Cheers for all the help too, at first it looked like it would be impossibly, but after all the help info iv received from the members of the forum it seems so much simpler when explained. Im really grateful for all the help too. Thanks so much :D But be warned there may be many more questions to be asked but ill do as much research as i can before asking.

Hey guys, just abit of an update. Iv finished playing with eco mode pretty much for now. Just adjusted shift speeds, times and pressure for first to second. Still yet to go is the performance mode and the lean cruise option adjustment to be released and then itll be time for a test run. :D The performance mode will be edited when i can afford some fuel to get it a hammering to find out where best points are and what to change. I thought before i go further i might get someone to take a look at the bin to see if its done correctly as im still not 100% certain on what im doing is right. Anyways here it is and thanks for your help.

lol theres no problems selling a tune on ebay, but $100 for a tune to suit a stock commodore motor is dodgy :P

Nah i still wouldn't do it, ebay tunes have a really bad rep. Not to mention you guys helped me achieve the tune then id take all the credit. Also i hate ebay with a passion. They charged me $40 to sell a cd. I accidentally put it in the wrong section.

ok, i've finally had some time to sit down and :comp: ---> :wall: the MAF tables :wtf:

you can get the latest xdf from HERE

This one has both lean cruise and maf tables added to it.

Please note i have no idea yet about how to tune these tables, but i'm hoping some of the MAF gurus lurking on the forum can help us with that.

my theory is, connect a wideband to your vehicle and use the map sensor/wideband input mod to get WB in the logs and then you can map the G/S V's AFR's and then adjust the maf tables to richen/lean as needed.

but at this stage i've yet to prove the theory :P

i will try and get the LC-1 installed into the Torana this week/weekend and see if i can't get some more info out of it.

Hey mate, cheers for that, ill check it out ad see if i can get my head round it. Picking up a trail VS on monday night but may have some issues with the tune due to it having some mods. VT rails and injectors, CAI, 3" exhaust from cat back.

Anyways thanks so much for that.
