Goodbye Torqstorm, hello Spoolius Ceasar

no, at least not yet. I wanted to get it to a basic start and idle so it could warm up reliably then start to actually tune it. I've been fighting it for a few days finding little issues here and there. But it's a good feeling when it fires up and idles. I do still need to finish some things and add a couple of wires to complete my oil pressure sensor and boost control wiring.
Sounds good, AFR looks really stable at idle.
Man, finally got it work right.. it was idling before, but ran like dog crap. Fixed some settings and cleaned some spark plugs... now it sounds much better.. and It drove semi normally. Just another idle video.. but the idle is much smoother and sounds better.
I'll try and get a driving video, harder to do without something to hold the phone.

Sounds wicked good! Make sure you're out of ASE (Afterstart enrichment) before you tweak the VE Tables. Looks like you probably are because I see CLT is around 170. Idle was a challenge for me and off-idle/accelerator enrichment is my Kryptonite. I still have a flat spot coming off idle with slight acceleration. I just live with it.

Why can’t you data log and tune through it? Just think of it like an accelerator pump shot. Make it rich in those cells when the throttle opens.
Oh it can totally be tuned out. It’s just so minor I haven’t paid much attention to it. And it’s actually its own table that sits on top of the VE table and adds/subtracts from the main VE.

Yea acceleration enrichment is a multiplier. But you said it was your kryptonite and that made me think you couldn’t figure it out. Not that you haven’t tried yet.
Yup. My problems were mainly timing. And ignition issues. Which I finally got sorted out and reading properly.
I data logged my trip around the neighborhood and found my accel enrichment dumping to 10.0afr when throttle was applied. I adjusted the table when I got back to my house, in park it seemed better but I’ll know more when I have a chance to drive around some more.
I am still fighting idle, trying to get it stable. So far open loop is working well. I was dabbling with closed loop since it pulls the motor down about 150-200rpm when the cooling fan kicks on. But I’ll play with that later on.
