I will turn everything back on and try to run it.
I do have a wideband (AEM 30-0300 ), but have not been able to get it to log through TunerPro ( Blue pin 68 high and 28 low ).
What I cant understand is that the more fuel I give it, the more (STFT and LTFT ) it just takes out? For all practical purposes this ( except for home made intake tube and headers) is a "stock swap".. why am I so far off?
To log WBo2, you should connect the 0-5vlt analog signal to blue pin 55. This is egr position sensor .
You need to have commanded egr to 0, disable egr codes, and zero out egr fuel reduction and egr spark tables.
If you are keeping fuel trims on, all you can do is aim for 0 trim. If you go open loop, you can tune to 14.7 on your gauge, then turn cl back on and tune O2 swing points to match almost no trim.
If you add 10%, and the fuel trims take out 10%, then you add another 10%, fuel trims will now want to take out 20%, the further you get from true, the longer it takes for it to learn what's right.
No need to re-invent the wheel. But we can make it better
I adjusted your open loop fuel table to be commanding stoich, it was commanding a richer fuel mixture the way it was. I also set your stoich afr to 14.08 to reflect 10% ethanol in pump gas.
There are 2 files attached, one is set up for MAF only, the VE table will be ignored, the second file is SD only, so it will fail and ignore the MAF and run purely on the VE table. Feel free to give these a try and see if you can control your fueling a little easier.
EXCELLENT! That is the kind of help that I am looking for and appreciate this very much. I will try to wire the wide band next weekend as described but we threw in the "SD only" bin and made a few adjustments to the VE table just based on watching the displays and have made more progress today than any other day this year. Thank you so much.
I decided to prove a point with the whole intake tract altering the MAF calibration. This has a LS3 cartridge MAF in a 100mm tube with a Saxon PC 6:1 flow straightner in it. My van reacted the same way the stock van with the GM LT1/Vortec 3.5" MAF in the prior video did with a missing air filter. My MAF calibration started as a GM LS3 525 hp calibration and only needed slight changes to run correctly. From memory had to add about 12% down at 1500hz and remove 4% over 7,000 hz but otherwise it was extremely close. Remove the filter and it nearly stalls.
Excuse the mess outside, just pulled down an old above ground pool and working on a kitchen remodel and I have not had the time to load up a trailer to take to the dump yet. I have seen LS trucks do the same thing with cheap Spectre or Ebay warm air intakes that have a cone filter on the end even with the stock 85mm MAFs. Change the intake tract and you will be tuning the MAF transfer calibration.

thank you for confirming what I always believed.Originally Posted by Fast355
True or not I also believed that exhaust modification also alters it, air in air out.
Although maybe not enough to worry about?

Headers definately throw the calibration off. If you took a stock engine and put headers on it, the PCM will read at a higher dymanic airflow and put it in an area of the timing map that GM tuned with very little advance.
Fast, I know you're a smart guy, obviously you came to realize this is smart http://www.saxonpc.com/100mm-cells-for-100.html
I end up using multiple honeycombs in intake tracts to calm the tumbling that can occur. When you alter a known good transfer function you will find it isn't accurate at different temps, barometric pressures, altitudes, humidity, etc.
Big camshafts and bad exhaust sometimes require the distance to the MAF to be changed to further away and if packaging doesn't allow this, time to switch to speed density. Sometimes a switch to e78 or e92 computers that allow dual MAF's is an option too.

I have not run across issues altering MAF transfer functions in nearly 20 years of tuning. Not saying it cannot happen, but it is not something I have seen in many different platforms. I mainly tune GM and Nissan.
I would not go to speed density, it is near pointless and not nearly as accurate. A recalibrated MAF transfer is far more accurate then the best speed density. I had two Dodges that never could achieve accurate fueling, atleast not like a GM or Nissan.
I also converted my TBI to an 85mm MAF years ago.

I am in the process of getting this all hooked up and adjusting the settings ( after work and should make more progress this weekend ), but the definitions file (.adx ) that I have does not have the egr listed. Would you or someone in this forum happen to have the one I need please?
Thank you in advance.
I don't have any oBd2 ADX's, I primarily use HP tuners since I invested in there interface long ago. I wasn't aware there were any specific OS ADX's available?
What interface are you using, could you use a different loging program with it? Perhaps the torque app?
No need to re-invent the wheel. But we can make it better
I am trying to get it to work with Tunerpro RT so that I can correlate the AFR with the proper square in the VE table with data tracing ( so far I am recording the screen and wide band with my phone.. effective, but not very precise and quite convoluted ). The adx file I was given was setup to use a post-cat-o2 but I have been unable to get it to work yet.
Hiya Fast, thanks for the reply. I think we are both on the same page and you obviously know how tricky MAF calibration can be. I am with you on a MAF calibration done correctly is much better than speed density. Of course if we can provide good blending for both, it does offer some redundant qualities if one fails. I mainly do GM, like you, and on the occasions I have to do a Ford(MAF only garbage) or a Dodge(SD even worse garbage) it's amazing how bad these things are and can still get thru CARB testing when stock or with somebody's(Rousch, SCT, many many others).
I grew up on SD tuning(early 90's), so, it doesn't bother me but MAF is king IMO.
I get a lot of tunes to do that someone else has completely screwed up the driveability. Many have spent a Lot of money and the MAF tune makes all the power, and can't drive at all at part throttle on different days, because they got into the maf tables figuring a percentage here a percentage there works fine. Plenty of times I just look at the MAF table(even on Fords) and just put it back to stock(if it has the range) and start over from stock. Fix the tube, or, stock MAF and go, Yuck.
Anyway, good to have a talk :)

It is always good to discuss things with you Carl. I too started with speed density TBI/TPI and GM CCC Q-Jet.
I too have fixed vehicles for the same reason. I actually just fixed a bone stock 5.3L to LQ9 swap. Ran poorly on startup, idled like a WW2 tank, etc. Guy had paid $700 for a dyno tune and it only ran well at WOT. The shop did not even have the correct injector data in the tune. Not a huge deal at WOT but at part-throttle fueling was everywhere. I put a stock MAF cal back into it too because it had a stock airbox, stock intake tube and stock maf.
Hiya Fast, it's funny we were just talking about this.
I get a cam change guy who just came from the dyno shop a few days before. It hauls ass but can't drive it across town. I suck the file out and told him I will be in touch in a few days if I can help.
Holy fockin crapola.
OMFG, he had been into the MAF table like he was a Ford guy, the he PE corrected wide open throttle to "fix" his fack. Besides all his other f'ups, I threw the file away and started from stock so I could fix it.Code:Power Enrich Fuel Equiv. Ratio Vs. RPM RPM Eq.
