1
2
1
0.5
0
0
0
0
0
-0.5
-1
-1.5
-3.5
-5.5
-7.5
^ This is a good idea for testing. If you overboost too much, the WGDCC will go way negative and get "stuck" there (when it swings back to underboost, it'll be in the top cell of the table). That way you'll know something went wrong. Once I made sure mine was controlling right, I changed the top value to 0.5 so it would slowly come back up if I managed to swing the WGDCC too far negative somehow. Not really important for street driving, but I don't want to be autocrossing, dig out of a turn and find I'm stuck at 12 psi.

BTW, Razor, did you rescale the other side of the table? That's a lot of zeroes in the middle.

Haha, I don't think it's enough to drop it all the way to 12psi. If you are overboosting so much that you are at the end of the table, you have other issues... (not pointing at you, just saying in general)

That same error correction table is used on a local autox SM drivers Evo 9 who hasn't seen a problem yet.

When I was getting it all set up (and my correction interval was 1) I was having wild enough swings that it was getting stuck in underboost. Although I had the top three cells zeroed. Once I got it dialed in, it stopped doing that. I changed them all to 0.5 then. It wasn't gonna hurt anything because I never really see those cells.

EDIT: I just looked at my ROM and guess what? I have 0 in the top cell. I must have changed it back at some point.

two zeros on each side of zero.

Yea I think 1 is too much for the GMBCS personally.
