no problem! Sounds like you need to reduce timing in some idle cells.

405hp_z06, can you double check on that? the car should have been in an idle cell according to conditions

22 and 15 are WOT. I looked at some logs I did with Car Code OBDII and I did see some single frames that showed FTC 22 at idle, but it was for far less than a second. I also checked some logs in HPT and didn't see FTC 22 once, only 20 during cold idle and then FTC 18 and 19.

Are you seeing this at hot idle, cold idle, or both?
