I'd try a new version of each one (XMLs and SD ROM) and copy over your relevant tables for testing.
this point aside, can you tell me the answer to my other questions? what tables need changing to move your load scale left or right?

These all affect load:

RPM VE
MAP VE
MAF COMP VS Coolant temp
MAF Compensation (as known as MAF Smoothing)
MAF Scaling

I don't think this points to your issue. You tried different RPM VE and Map VE values which is supposed to work .. without playing with other MAF calculations.

thank you, I'll start to look over these values vs. an unaltered map to see if there have been some unknown changes made before I got to the tune.

yes, I've tried raising RPM VE back up to 100 and higher... have tried 340/430, 370/430, 400/430, 430/430... 330/460, 300/500 in MAP VE final row to no avail. the curve seems to only move 10 load one way or the other. My pump tune is 600hp 29psi... e85 is close to 800 at 42psi... but both pulls are nearly identical on load curve.

Also if you change values in the MAF tables, go with MAF compensation and not MAF scaling. The MAF scaling curve should stay round and smooth in the graph option.

I did find a difference from virgin V7 rom in MAF COMP VS COOLANT

my table is on right, stock is on left. Might this be my issue, and why would this table be changed? I notice they're both the same at operating temp, so I don't think this is it.

It's not your issue. If it has changed, it's because someone edited it or "post primer enrich decay" which is the same table.

I'd still flash a new ROM with a new XML pack installed. It can be something you won't see easily.

Also, what do you use for air temperature ? AIT, MAT or Fuel temperature? Do you have any good reading of it in Evoscan? It came to my mind because if it is unconnected or bad ground, the load would be affected. It's just another guess but still worth checking.

Using fuel temp for AIT. I can log it if you can tell me where.

MUT 11 (request ID 11)
formula: 1.8*x-40
output is deg.F

haven't done the log for fuel temp yet... but look at this

Top pic is with load1byte selected...bottom is with load calculated selected in Evoscan...





THIS is where I'd like to see my car on the load scale... this is how my old Evo load scale ran on a MAF tune. and THIS car was only 450whp.

As I already said it could be your 1byte load factor..

What is your 2byte to 1byte load factor in the ROM
and
What it is in Evoscan (load 1byte formula) ?

They should be the same

In Evoscan, the 1byte load formula is

Req. 41
1.2*x

in my rom it's 1.8. THERE'S THE PROBLEM, TAA DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU~~~!!!!

OK. so what do i change them to. I see in another thread, someone says to make them both 1.5, is this correct?

Max load is calculated like that.
1byte=8bits,
in binary terms it's a "word" (00000000,00000001, 00000010, etc...)
so 256 possible values including zero
max value is 255
So load conversion factor:
255*1.2=306 max load
255*1.4=357 max load


Yes I'd put them at 1.5. In SD it doesn't really matter because you still can adjust load curve with VE tables. But with a stroker and big turbo, more load will be somewhat easier to tune, and more realistic vs MAF tune.

Thank you sooo much for your help Domyz, what a blessing to have such a supportive community behind us.
