No. Don't expect anything for a few months.

Matt gave me the idea to edit my pulsewidth map in PMT1, then transfer it over to VDH5. It worked, and I'm not tuning completely blind anymore.

Now I have a chance at getting these brand new sticks under control.

Yep. The nice thing about certain definitions is that you can do that..... I had to learn the hard way with my Sniper software since some of the maps were all jacked up.


Do you still need this other tune? I got the order for it yesterday and I should have it ready by Friday.

Yes.

As of yesterday I probably don't need it, since I got a majority of stuff dialed in that I was having trouble with before I tried the PMT1 trick. But it wouldn't hurt to go ahead and have it so I can have a reference point and baseline. So yeah, I'll still take it. I'm sure it will help me fine tune a last few bits that I'm still working with, and save me some time since I don't have an emulator right now.

I still have a lot of tuning left to do with these injectors, so every little bit helps.

Thanks Cody! You da' man! Tell Bill you need a pay raise.

What if I don't think I'm worth it?

I have altered the stock file to hopefully take care of idle issues. It should give you a good starting point (but it may be a little "stronger" than stock).

If you need anything done to it, just PM me and I'll make some tweaks. It should be a good start though.

You will have mail in a few minutes.

I wish my PMT1 would work, must be nice to actually put the PW down that you want instead of having to guess all the time.

Don't get too upset.

I don't get to work with the right values either.

I don't get upset at all, just get frustrated some times. I still am very happy with Minotaur and wouldn't trade being able to do my own tunes for anything!!!
