I wouldn't really call what we're doing "hit or miss." It's a new product w/ new possibilities, so we're testing the limits. Intense did the same thing when they started tuning w/ HPT.
There's a LOT of thought and discussion going on w/ these modifications that you're not seeing on the forums.

Exactly. The VCM scanner (not the Editor) software is absolutely amazing. I have spent hours just analyzing logs to figure out where I need to add/remove fuel and spark, plus I have an excel sheet that I wrote that will calculate your quarter mile time as a baseline to do WOT runs (I use the 40 to 100 roll to compinsate for launching inconsistancies).
If you are monitoring the right PID's you can see exactly where there is room for improvement and then see the results of what you did. |
