Ideally, I'd like to have a good tune for stock trim, and another tune for a 3.1". I'm assuming a good custom tune in stock trim will help smooth out the rough edges.
Spoon... ever figure out what that random "-" was in the stock config?

I was starting to sort through the tunes last night, and I was looking for that '-' in particular, but there's so damn many timing tables to look through. There's ALOT of torque management going on with the car stock, and even with the stage tune. Timing is pulled under alot of situations, there's a big drop in between the 1-2 shift, which doesn't suprise me. I think it's what some people are interpreting as a bog, or slipping clutch, since it would let the engine rev, but pull boost while it revs.
I did see the results of the K&N on one person's logs, made the MAF signal wander a bit.

I think it's something I was prepared for anyway. I'm going to try and 'fix' mine if it shows up on my logs.
I'm looking for a nice custom stock tune, tq mangagement relaxed, but active. Fuel trimmed back under part throttle, and the A/F ratio smoothed out.
Then, a race tune. Fans coming on ASAP, bump the timing to work with a 1/2 & 1/2 mix of 100+ octane and 93, ALL torque management removed, etc...
