Default Maf tuning question

Ok so i did my ve table from 0-4000 rpm now im very confused how to tune the maf from 4000-7000. Cant find a good right up. I tried doing the histogram with afr error like it says online but wen i go to configure it it wont let me. Any good write ups on how to do from 4000-7000

You should be doing the entire VE table with the Maf failed. Then do the entire Maf table. Both should be tuned independently for the entire rpm range the motor will see. This way if the Maf fails the car will still run correctly

Let's start with why you believe the MAF is wrong enough
to need calibration, when (Delphi at least) are factory set
up and reasonably accurate.

It's my opinion that if you aren't getting right fueling and
the MAF is as-stock, your error(s) probably lie elsewhere.

As said, you have to tune the whole VE table. Then put the maf back in. I've seen stock maf's off as much as 40% when some work is done to the cars .Most are close within 10%

i have a 85mm maf..

but i have seen everywhere online that they tune the ve up to 4000 then hook up maf back up and continue tuning the ve using maf calculations above 4000 is this correct?
