Not a new one , but a cult none the less.........STOOGES

Well according to you a stooge is someone who has only been to one tuner and swears they are the best? Then Fatz, Danny, Myself and alot of the others can't be stooges, cos we have all had tunes elsewhere. :wacko:

Says he with the big TUNED BY Cheese and Vegimite PERFORMANCE in his sig

:wacko: good one.

Headsex, did you want to give us a tutorial on your tuning. Like what maps in the software do you change, what changes do you generally make in the timing/fuel/transmission tables.

One thing I really want to know is does the edit allow you to change the closed loop cruise lambda tables (eg changing it from 14.7 to something leaner for fuel economy)

I want start to playing with this edit stuff soon and a cheat sheet explaining how to tackle the software would be good.

is it possible to get a mail order tune from you??... would mean a lot of sendign the box back and forth with dyno sheets etc but would it be worht it?...

Generially the best changes are kept simple, lean the fuel table out to the likes of 12.4afr, alter the spark to give more timing and add more shift preasure and adjust the transmissions ramp rates. And obviously push boost up

Yes you can, but that introduces new problems, it will try to idle at that afr, and also it only has a narrow band o2 sensor, so there will be no closed loop adjustment

You can however alter the fuuel table to command 1.2 lambda (17.5afr) around 1500 to 2000 rpm but I have noticed very little gain there, yet alone the fact ford didn't put lean cruse in because it pushes emissions up.

I want start to playing with this edit stuff soon and a cheat sheet explaining how to tackle the software would be good.

Start simple small changes and make sure you have a dataloggwer so you can see what the pcm is doing.

Last thing you want to do is command 20 degrees timing and have the knock sensors pulling out 8 degrees all the time because your not bright enough to adjust the sensitivity or disable the knock sensors. Oh and this is why their tunes sometimes ping or ping all the time. I've datalogged some crazy sh*t.

most of my success is becauae I've studied the datalogs to see if my changes made a difference.

No, see above, I will not tune blindly without a datalogger to map things like boost out.

I am planning a trip to qld to sort some tunes out.. Talk to o2 stock.
