I'm not running SD (yet) but I am using the stock 2g DSM MAF sensor in my car with the Evo 8 Ecu. It's not SD, but it is a different air flow metering device than what the ecu was programmed for. I'm having symptoms similar to what you are describing. My car is fine when running open loop, but has some problems in closed loop.

Can you please describe exactly what you changed? For a while, I've been thinking my BOV was defective. It would be nice if this fixed it.
Speed density takes care of all of your bov/stuttering/fluttering problems. I am in LOVE

Yeah, the flutter and jerk was taken care of by the SD patch alone.

Changing the STFT limits has helped on an issue where while driving the car, I can feel the car cycle the AFR. My car doesn't seem happy with the AFR moving around a lot. I can run it open loop at about 16:1 under cruise conditions and it doesn't seem too upset. Set the maps up at 14.7:1 though and then turn on closed loop and the car will get a little misfire like feel every time the car cycles lean. The wideband is saying it's only going to like 15.5:1 too so it's within the range I've found it can handle without breaking up under steady state conditions.

I'll eventually be converting. I just have to find a little extra cash to buy the parts. The switch will probably happen over my Christmas break, when I have a little extra time.

In closed loop that's pretty much how mine reacts as well. I may have to try setting it to strictly open loop or at least open loop up to 3,000 rpm and see how it reacts to that.

I switched BOVs and I still have that fluttering/stuttering. It's just not as severe as it was with the SSQV (running a Type-S now).

I'll make my own new thread since this has nothing to do with SD.

I had the same issue with that valve, the check valve inside leaks and makes things drive a little weird. At first I thought it was my BCS or the wrong wastegate duty cycle lol.

Here, check this out if you want the valve to work properly and hold 30+psi...

Just wanted to make a note in this thread regarding the 2000-2800rpm jitter was on my list of little problems. The issue is completely GONE. At cruise, at any speed (specifically 1800-2800rpm) the car drives SMOOTH AS SILK!

Details here, its an EASY fix thanks to mrfred!

So I am having an issue with my WOT.. Every thing was fine till I switched to 1600 PTE and FIC Easy tune, I can get the car to Drive/idle fine but my fuel map is maxed and I have no fuel control at WOT. Increased the RPM VE up top and still didnt fix it, car runs lean up top and IDC are at 75-80% at 27PSI. Should I be Increasing my MAF Tables to get that extra fuel? AFR's were perfect with FIC 1150's but IDC's were 112%. I Figured the 1600's would Richen the hell out of my maps but not the case..

What's your global injector scaling?

What are you using for fuel supply?

112% IDC on 1150s at 27 PSI points toward dropping fuel pressure.

1300 and my trims come around, 1100 and my WOT works a little better. I am still on the stock reg, An uprated FPR is my next mod

Then set your injector scaling to 1300 to bring trims inline, then tweak your upper load and rpm VE tables to bring your WOT AFRs back inline.

Did you have good working injector scaling and latancy values before starting this process?

Always scale your injectors for fuel trims and not for WOT fueling to match your old injectors.

If the fuel trims are correct and your WOT is rich or lean, then you need to retune your fuel tables and/or SD tables.

Why?

You are using maybe the first 5% of the injector response curve to adjust the entire fuel curve when going by trims.

If you go by WOT AFRs, you can dial in 95% of the fuel settings with one value (injector scaling), then simply adjusting the latency values gets your trims where they need to be.

Your SD tables should not change with an injector change if the values represent anything of physical meaning.

Brings around the idea though that we have been using a more difficult value for latency all along. Seems like simply changing the base latency value would get us where we need to be without messing up the curve of the battery latency values that holds true for most injectors out there.

Sorry I realize what I posted was a bit too generic.

Yes if your fuel map is dialed in, then you can set your injector scaling to whatever makes the fuel map match what your expected/before WOT AFR target was/is.

I've seen many a tuned evos that have the fuel map compensated for poorly scaled injectors, the trims are all over the place, but WOT fueling is fine.

I agree with you on base latency. I have yet to mess around with that at all however.
