I only drive in 3rd gear
I only drive in 3rd gear
Cause the freakin car tunes itself differently in every gear and I'm starting to get really sick of it.
So the issue:
I tune in 3rd gear.
4th gear is richer
5th gear is richer than 4th
2nd gear is leaner.
I know this has been discussed before, but does anyone have any idea how to remedy this at all?
I thought perhaps it had to do with acceleration enrichment so I tried to equalize them out some. No luck.

Yeah, so I decided if I can't run a consistent AF ratio in other gears, I'm just going to tune my 3rd gear and never use any others. I'll start in 3rd, I'll reverse in 3rd.
Your load changes the higher the gear. One way to tune this out a bit is to make sure your fueling in the higher loads is the same as the load you hit in 3rd gear.
There are a couple different schools of thought on if this is a good way to do it however.

Same calculated load cells.

Rows labelled "Close" mean that the calculated load is within 3 units of each other.
It is more pronounced at higher RPM's.

You're back in the game for some nylon/feet hunting!
Hope everything works out for you, hang it there.
I don't have much knowledge on ECUflash, can't help you there sorry
I like your signature...I hope you are not busting...
j/k
My understanding is that the car runs a tad richer in the higher gears because the ECU has more time to respond to load changes...I believe Ivey and/or Jestr posted about this awhile ago....I still think most are running way too rich on this site, but that is a whole different subject.
I'll PM you my AFRs in a week. Good luck

Sometimes evoscan isn't the gospel.
