I recently picked up a copy of Tunercat and have changed a few little things, but haven't really got into the tables yet. Among other things, I just installed some Hooker LTs and I'm waiting for nice weather to get the dual exhaust installed. My question is what should be the first tables to edit for a little more performance? More spark advance? Lean the car out? Where is a good place to start, and what tables should I look in?

 

before you edit anyhting you need to get some sort of scanning equitment. and the best out there is datamaster.

 

Forgot to mention, I have datamaster as well.

 

ttt, this is my situation as well...

 

the way i do it goes like this..

make sure everything is A-OK.
no knock, IAC right, TPS is set etc..

then start w/ the 0% TPS spark adv..
set it to get the highest MAP(most vaccum) uses less fuel ..

if you have a dyno run w/ your current mods use the dyno tuner sheet(excel xls)
to get 12.6-12.8 AFR

then start w/ the timing..

then do shifting if its an A4.

later

 

OpCode, can you explain a little more? I don't quite understand what you mean by

"then start w/ the 0% TPS spark adv..
set it to get the highest MAP(most vaccum) uses less fuel"

 

Here

thats the page i used to start with.
in tunercats the table is named "Closed TPS ADV" or something like that, im at school so i dont have tunercats in front of me..

hope that helps

PS.
it find the lowest MAP(Highest Vac.)
