Ouch my brain is already hurting in anticipation.

Rolls can tell us whether or not this is likely to be something that is included in the logging software. I read that it can be logged but this might not be the case. If you open all of the shift tables at once (I could only fit 20 on my screen), it looks like there only half a dozen or so main tables that vary ever so slightly either way. The first thing that occurs to me is that there are so many tables to account for adaptive learning in the various main modes of operation. I could be completely wrong about this lol. What did you find out in the interim?

That is something that can be data logged ay? There is a thread that had a bit of this info in it. A dude created an excel file that helped with calculating shift points etc. The link shows the forum page that the file is on but you can read through the whole thread to find what you're looking for. There isn't everything there but it's better than nothing.

That's just the gear ratio mate and there's nothing reasonable to be done about that. As i mentioned before it sounds like it's changing from 2nd to 3rd and landing with the converter locked. If this is the case then; The only thing to mitigate the rpm difference is to make sure the converter is unlocked on the shift or unlocked at other parameters such as tps, oss etc.

It sounds like it's changing into 3rd with the converter staying locked.

I just loaded that strategy and searched for "Minimum torque ratio" and found auf12516. It is found under Workshop/Professional Development Parameters then Development Scalars. I didn't look for the rest but searching for the name of the table etc should yield some results.

Howdy, I just got both emails, thanks guys. I've just had a very quick look and it looks good. Haha I'm going to have to get my thinking hat back on to tune all of the extra cells! Nothing that a ton of logging can't fix however.

Thanks for the reply mate. I'm still a little ways off tuning but I want to have everything in place and also have some familiarity with the updated os before I jump into it. So I would just buy 2 credits from the store and then take it from there?

I emailed my licensed file through a little while back so I could have a look at the boost by gear and map swap over etc and a custom os was emailed back, without flex fuel support. I am keen to have the flex fuel option however. I wonder if you still have my original file? Could you please clarify what is "automated in the next version of the editor"? I'm just a little confused about the automatic update and the 2 credit update. At any rate I will go ahead with the flex option so will proceed based upon your advice. Thanks mate.

Haha I don't know why I was saying boost sensor in my earlier post. Maybe cos I was looking at a boost sensor adapter next to my monitor that I was going to give to a dude? Nvm. It is the map sensor that gets replaced, at any rate. https://www.independentmotorsports.com.au/ford-xr6-turbo-map-sensor-brake-out-loom-adaptors

You can use the custom os and use a different boost sensor. It's a Bosch unit. I can't remember the part numbers off the top of my head. Independent motorsports sell a sensor. Ihatetoads over on the xr6 forum worked with Bluestreak to get the scaling right for a bigger sensor. They might help. There was a dude here setting up a 4 bar sensor that could probably steer you in the right direction. I guess the specifics of the exact bit of info could be chucked in a sticky somewhere.

I have a 66mm turbo with a ported internal gate. I've tried leaving a dip in the boost maps where the gear change lands and that works, except it comes on boost slower. Apparently that is common practice. I also messed with some of the overboost and turbo settings and had some luck there. It's been a while since I played with it so can't remember it all from the top of my head. I think that the internal gate isn't big enough and cant react quick enough to prevent boost spikes in an auto car but maybe someone knows better?

Have a look here mate. Darryl has done a write up about this.

Lemme just test the swear filter...awesome!!!?

Sign me up!

Haha I'll give it a go sometime.

You already mentioned the rear o2 and the power steering input. I don't think we'd need more than that but you never know.

That's an idea. Have more than one 0 to 5 volt input. Whether there could be 3 or more maps is something that Roland or Darryl can tell us.

Run the required timing and fuel and throttle settings in one map to create antilag and then have a momentary switch to activate it. I wonder if you could also do some zf solenoid control so it'd be in neutral on an antilag map then go into gear on the normal map?

I don't see why you would have to. I licensed an already tuned hp tuners file. In saying that, in the past, when swapping flash tuning devices you would want to start from stock to ensure that you know exactly what has been changed. With how extensive pcmtec is I think that they would have all of the parameters and more that other tuning solutions have. I would still start from a blank slate tho and use the parameter importing feature to knock most of it out.

I can imagine. I've done mine from scratch a few times and it's very time consuming especially if you have to work out the injector data beforehand.

Wow I only just had a look at what can be done with the value files. This is awesome. Such a massive time saver!

I just tried out the attached file and it worked as intended. Even if it doesn't set up the fuelling perfectly it'll be a great starting point and time saver. Flex fuel will be great as most of my driving is done at hwy speeds and is a waste of e85. It'll be good to be able to mostly drain the tank on the weekend, top it up with e85 and not have to stuff around with the tune several times.
