Cause I setup the formulas in the columns for a very narrow range...and right now you shouldnt really need to change them for the PGMFI code...

Play with the IF() statements in the code to expand the range.

I HOPE to make a plugin someday for TE...

Basically it would be a little wizard where you would pick which engine, which injectors, what boost efficiency and how to retard ignition and TE would do all of the work for you.

Anyone that knows VB or the other supported languages for writing TE plugins might be more efficient than I though, so if you think it's something you could help with, let us know.

good stuff. i think i can pull this off now. sounds like fun.i had been toying around with the idea of using TE for a long time. but now it is a must. lol if u would do the above that would be too cool. big thumbs up for TE and anybody involved in it.

"linear is safer but with a touch less power, step is a touch more risky but probably smoother and more power"

what, exactly, is the differnce between them? how is step more risky?

Step isnt necessarily risky...it's just a little riskier than a linear retard.

As Blundar recommends, step is a little more natural. We dont retard any timing until 3 psi...then generall .25 degrees every 3 psi. (6-9psi .5 retard) (9+psi .75 or 1)

Linear resembles more what the MSD BTM timing retard devices do.

Re:Offcial "How-to" - Setting up TurboEdit Basemaps

i can make basemaps the 'easy way' no problem, but along with a few others, i'm not sure i understand the excel basemap helper? are you saying we really don't need to change toe column heading for the current codes, it's just an available option for a future code that may have different headings

so basically you can just copy and paste the stock map in to the excel sheet, then copy the new map it gives you in to the stable bin and you're good to go?? but you only paste in the vacuum maps, so you would actually only paste in over to column '0' in the stable rom? i may be looking too deep in to it, but it's confusing me.
