Got a new REV from Eric of Torqued Performance which rescaled the MAF, AIR fuel ratio's dropped and looking much better and no more feedback knock during the pulls. Wasn't expecting replacing the air filter (I'm on the stock airbox) which had around 8-10K on it (paper element), and cleaning the MAF (on a 28K mile car) would increase AFR's by half a point.
How do you like Eric's tune?

I also have one as well. Car feels really good and smooth. Just need to get on a dyno at some point and get some numbers.

Wow really? I also use Eric's tunes. A basic stage 2 with about 10 revisions. I thought EQ tune would be better bcs of the real time adjusting??

Eric knows how to tune a car very well. With about a dozen revisions or so he's able to dial in the car to about 99% imo.

It only took me 5 revisions to get my tune dialed in and 2 of them were to detect and fix boost and vac leaks.

Its pretty good - will do some pulls to check the AFRs after a couple hundred miles to see how it's learning per Eric. ( got dialed in on Rev 5 )

When you get a chance can you shoot me a copy of your logs? I'd love to compare it to mine. I should look at my afr more often. Most of the time I have it set to display af learning :/

My last set of logs, you have a wideband too? Or just using the calculated reading from the ECU?

REV5 uploaded to DataZap..

I added a damper to the fuel feed line and will the logs in a few days..
