The challenge here is that the error bar with dyno runs doesn't really allow you to discern small changes in power like this...just too many variables involved to conclude that a 5 whp increase or decrease is real and attributable to one particular variable change (like plugs)

How do you log with V3?
I have had JB4 for 18 months and just got a cobb ap. I can set parameters and make the ap start logging and stop logging but how dop i get the logs saved, to a laptop. or do they save somewhere on the ap? I tried hooking laptop while plugged into car but it stopped the ap from working. |

Correcting for boost under shoots
There's a great article in here on how to correct for boost overshoots, by logging the MAF Req and Boost Setpoint factor, and adjusting the WGDC base table. I've had issues when I did my Stage 1, and then a few more with Stage 2+ after going cat-less, but very minor. Using the same base table from my customized stage 1 map, now in my stage 2+ map, I was ending up with 0.5psi of over boost in the 3500-4000rpm range. Not much to correct, and it's pretty simple to do.
My dilemma is, that I'm not hitting the load target over 5000rpm, the difference getting larger as I rise in the rpm range, falling short by almost 2psi at 6500rpm. The article referenced above explains doing the reverse will help. However, the MAF Req range I need to adjust and raise the WGDC base amount, is in the 350-400 range, and the table only goes to 333. I"m not sure if raising at 333 will raise a linear amount beyond that, or if I should try and change the X axis values (which could throw everything out of whack). Any ideas?

View post on imgur.com Hey all just wanted to share my results with Cobb AP Stg 2+ sport. I'm very pleased to say the least. Can't wait to try e30+ maps!!! Is there any harm with running this map all the time? Should I be switching to a less powerful map between hard drives? |

Again just IMO but I think people use the "on the fly" JB4 feature WAY too liberally. It's not intended to just click a button and suddenly you are in kill mode. not smart but now i'm just ranting.

Log a full run 3 to 5 gear, and then map your x axis accordingly, so you hit your target on 3rd gear but don't overshoot on 5th. Example I mapped mine 189 200 222 290 320 400

Stg 2+ FMIC ST Sport
Quick question guys as I've been noticing something recently with the above map.
Am i suppose to not be getting into very much boost in 1st or 2nd gear? 3rd gear im getting 16 psi around 3k rpms. 2nd gear it pretty much maxes at like 4 or 5 psi. Is that normal? Is there a place to look at what the map has "configured" for it? Another question. I've been on this map for about a week and at first the new boost feeling of 16psi i could really feel it. Idk if it's just me but I don't feel it as much anymore. Maybe its cause it's been a week. Has this happened to anyone before? Maybe i need more boost lol Sorry if that doesn't make sense. Thanks In Advance.

In lower gears there is much less load placed on the engine than in higher gears. You should still be seeing much more than 5psi though. Get a 2nd gear log and we'll go from there.
As far as how the car feels, more than likely you're just use to the power and the car doesn't feel as fast as it first feels. |

Allen,
Thx again BTW. OK I'm pretty sure I'm crazy now. Hitting 16psi in 2nd gear just fine. What i think it might have been is that 2nd gear goes so fast that im pretty sure i just wasnt giving it enough throttle to get it to build up quick enough. Im using Stock Throttle map and Idk if that has anything to do with it. I'm relieved as I thought maybe something had come loose or had broken lol. I am still going to try and find a decent spot to get a good log. I want to be able to read those and understand what my cars thinking. Ive also heard great things about getting a pro tune by your group but before i go deeper into the tune hole i want to learn the tune basics with the OTS maps. So ill do some logging and get some opinions first. Shout out to this thread. Everyone on here is very helpful. Bad news is I think I'm addicted now. I want to try ethanol at some point. Heard great things about it. Quote:

Nah I wasn't logging. I was just using the gauges on the AP and looking there lol. Its pretty accurate i assume. Idk I think I was just being too careful lol. The n54 can take a beating. I should coddle it less hahaha. Also, it was city driving and that might have had a factor.
Anyways yeah good laugh seeing as everything's ok. |

Log- New to E30
This is my first posted Log, Looking for input. I do not have HPFP or LPFP logged, as they are both holding up fine.
Log: http://datazap.me/u/chris23023/7914-...10-11-12-13-14 75 degree ambient , 840ft above MSL Tune: Cobb OTS E30 Mods: 36K miles, New plugs (300 miles max), FMIC, and DP's, 91 non ox + 30% Eth How do they look? I feel timing corrections are an issue, and boost is higher than where I want it, but I will allow the pro's to give feedback Thanks |

You have some relatively minor corrections across multiple cylinders. Were I to guess, i'd say you are probably a bit tight on octane. Goal is to end up with E30 in the tank, not 30% E85 + 91 Pump. That won't get you E30. I would highly encourage you to log HPFP and LPFP PSI even if you feel they are holding well. If the high pressure side starts to crash that's something you need to be aware of quickly.
