Tephra v5.10 94170015 Boost control BUG!
I guess that tbec chart on the left side is actually load and if it is -20 load under target load which mine is 240 right now, then it will correct the wgdc% on the right side of chart is that correct. So for example if i hit 220 instead of my 240 then it will look at the tbec for -20 and what every % i have on the right will be added to my wgdc is that right?
I foiund that having my correction table set very light (between 2.5-0.5) in both directions gave me the smoothest repeatable curve without overcorrecting. I also have my base WGDC BELOW my target load to help prevent overshooting and I'll let the ECU add a little correction here and there to bump up the curve if needed. I was told by a bunch of people that keeping the lower negative cells at zero helped prevent the ECU from trying to correct during "spoolup" which would cause overshoot.

Oh yeah I forgot about that (new to ECU boost control). For now I added +0.5 correction in the bottom bottm 3 negative values. I forgot to mention that I have the correction interval set to "1" so it corrects more often with smaller jumps. I found this to work wonderfully in my setup, I'll look into the TPS table next.
I asked about this when mrfred originally found the tables. From what i remember the ECU is never limited to negative correction only upward correction. So if you have 10 in that table for max correction it can still remove over 10% WGDC. Mrfred can confirm but that should be accurate.

It will also add as much WGDC back in (if you have it in the TBEC table) up to base WGDC, never beyond (if that Max upward correction vs TPS is zeroed out)
I've found great success with zeroing out the upward correction table and having some extreme upward correction in the TBEC table, that way if boost ever gets pulled it will add it back to base WGDC as quickly as possible, as long as load is at or under target.
Well, I have still heard numerous people say that when they switched from the regular maps tot he alt maps it didn't switch over to the alt map boost tables. I also encountered this a while back when I first started messing with the boost control. I want to try and make it happen intentionally first.

I would actually like the ability to adjust this value. I can typically get boost within +- 2psi using BWGDC and would like to only allow the ECU to have a small range of adjustments so that WGDC is never more than 15% from BWGDC.
What do you put in the 100% TPS column for upward correction. The issue with adding correction during spool can easily be fixed by zeroing out correction at TPS < 75% or so but you will need to allow at least some upward correction at TPS > 75%. You would still have the adding correction during spool issue if you were full throttle.
Also, in regards to being on topic
. Jamie, I'm not sure how long you are waiting between flashes when you are running into your issue, but on MBC/static duty boost control I would always see very large spikes the first time I came close to full boost when outside temps were cooler. It didn't matter how long I had warmed up the car for or how many times I had hit partial boost. Not saying that is your problem... but maybe you need to push full boost for a second before you start logging.
