Load scaling on an Evo IX

I have a few questions for those that have rescaled the load columns on there evo 9. I have been tuning my car on E85 and i am seeing loads in the 360s.

My question to you guys is, what columns did you delete and what did you add? Why did you choose the ones that you chose to delete? Any drivability issues?

Thanks

I cant remember off hand what I have, but you definately want up to 370 to be able to see everything. Basically you want more resolution up top in the 200's and above then you really need at say 20.

I am about to try this tomorrow:

10 20 40 60 80 100 115 130 145 160 175 200 215 230 245 260 275 290 305 320

From what I have been reading and such, the lower load doesn't require as much resolution to still be effective. Although I know my choice doesnt help you much since you need 360, but you can see where from 100 I went in intervals of 15, you may want to do intervals of 20.

How are you getting loads that high? I have seen cars running 28 PSI that only get to 310 load. Have you changed your intake?

Your tables are actually the oppposite in terms of what he wants relating to higher accuracy in the upper load columns. You want smaller steps up top, you have 15% steps up top and 10% steps at the bottom.

loads of 360 seem high even for e85. What turbo, what boost?

Might have a boost leak or need to adjust your MAF scailing if you changed your intake.

I see load somewhere around there too, e85 and 9 turbo, atermarket intake pipe. I'm not exactly sure you need to rescale your maf unless you change it. The maf is a measuring device which meters air through it, and unless you change the MAF itself, it shouldn't matter if you make more air (intake pipe) pass through it.

You don't "have" to rescale with aftermarket intakes if you tune for it.

One thing you cannot do is compare 2byte load and airflow to others as yours is now skewed.

Shouldn't matter for 2 byte load.
