Newb EFI Live tuning question
Hey guys,
I have a 99 Firebird Formula with the following mods. I am also tuning with a V2. I do have some experience tuning with XFI and a Haltech. So while Im not completely new to tuning, Im no professional either.
LQ4 Block
LS2 vette rods/pistons
Mild cam (less than 217* I think)
Ported 317's.
Fast 78mm intake
42lb injectors
As Im messing around with the settings, making little changes here and there such as Inj Flow Rate, g/cylinder and such, I keep coming up with the same problem Ive had since I got this car running. It idles at 1500-2000 in park. In gear it comes down to 1100. I force timing to 6* in my dashboard and the car idles along happily at 900.
Before I start randomly removing timing from the tables, I was wondering about what adjustments I should make. In the "Base Spark in Park/Neutral" table, its reading 18* from 800 and down to 22-35* range from there till 2400 RPM. Should I bring those numbers down and smooth it back out and see how it goes?

Ill post it up in a few, my laptop decided to be a ******* a few minutes ago.
Keep in mind before you guys bash how bad the tune is, I only just started messing with it. Mainly correcting settings and trying to get it to idle. Everything else has been untouched.
Edit; Either my battery or my laptop just died.
