Need help with the Airflow tables
I have a small problem that just needs a little adjustment. I have done extensive research using search so I need some straight forward answers.
The car idles really well, all mods are in sig. I rescaled the MAF but did not really mess with the VE other then dropping the 400, 800, 1200 rows 3%, 5%, and 10%. LTFT are positive 5-6% at idle and go up to around 8-12% at cruise and 0 at heavier loads and negatives on decel.
The problem is the rpms hang a little between shifts and when you let off the gas while cruising around 2000-3000 rpm. It doesnt stay at any particular rpm for any length of time just decelerates slowly. I am pretty shore this is airflow related but I don't know what table. I am using EFI Live.
Also when slowing down at a light or coming off the throttle quick the rpms drop to about 600 but then come right back up to 800.
What table to adjust this?
Also how should I go about getting the LTFT down at idle? I did just reset them. STFT are low 0-2% but the LTFT climb as time goes on (a couple of miles).
Do I just let them go for a while and see where they end up before trying to adjust?

Thanks alot, I will play with that. Is the RAF the same as Desired Airflow in EFILive?
Cracker and Follower tables-these values need increased? Should I make small changes .XX or larger 20% type changes, I will play with it, just trying to keep chasing my tail to a minimum.
Thanks again.

Desired Airflow is the table you adjust after recording RAFIG and RAFPN from a cold start. Granted you can only do one at a time...they both should be done. Just make sure you have the supporting pids selected. Once you have adjust Desired Airflow, you can tweak the cracker/follower tables to try and kill any other problem areas. As for how big of a change...I wouldn't move anything more than 1~2 grams/sec at a time.

I set the desired air based on logging the pids, and the reduced both Follower and Cracker tables by .4. I think it helped but I need to drive it more tonight. Does this sound right to reduce the table to allow the rpm to drop faster between shifts and reduce cruise control effect?
