Help Me Tune - TE w/ 3 Bar, already started need help
 
So i got ym car running on the weekend, went to Joshs (jkmotorsports) house for the Ontario HMT meet, we installed a 3bar into my car and got me going with a basemap, we started with full throttle tuning and Im pretty sure we got that bang on right Josh?

On the way home I damaged the car so I havent driven it yet, but I remember we were having some trouble with the idle on the 3 bar. The car would start up and run tits 14 to 1 for about 5 seconds then would just lean out to 18:1 +

Also, partial throttle was just way way lean, boggy and such

I dont have a laptop for mobile tuning so I have to come back into town everytime I wanna burn a map. Ive never touched TE or my moates 1 but I have to learn now

Can you guys give me some pointers and area that I have to watch in order to make adjustments. Like lets say I notice it going lean under partial throttle (-10 vac) and around 2800rpm-3400rpm. What do I do? Select what area and do what to richen, lean out certain areas?

I know its not gonna all work until I go out and try it, but id like to get it all banged out tomorrow so I can actually take someone out for a drive where she isnt screaming for her life haha

Heres what my map looks like right now (thanks for sending this Josh)

add fuel everywhere if its lean across the board. Lean=blown hg so dont go doin the basemap rippers and cry later. Rich like mid 11's at wot is where it is at if you want to keep the motor alive if your a rookie tuner simple.

Ya we actually had it idling good! But we went for the cruises, got her good till 7psi, cranked the boost to 14psi, got that good (damn it felt nice!! A little rich low 11afr but safe) got back and it wouldn't idle!!!

Sorry we ran out of time!!! If only the ostrich would have worked thing would have been WAY faster.

Well I guess I will just take this map out for a run tonight and see whats up and note the changes and areas. Basically the top row is just when its in vacuum and then gradually goes to positive numbers (boost)

So say my car is idling pig rich, pulling -15 vacuum but also is running lean at partial throttle which is also -15 vacuum, what would you do?

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, then it would be higher in the rpms to, hmmm

But the problem I said me and josh were having, it idles fine for a few seconds and then just starts gradually climibing to the lean side before I have to cut it off
