Default EFILive Flash Scan V2 Black Box Help

So I'm going to start data logging my car in EFILive on each run at the drag strip. What are the channels or PIDs that I need to have and look at? I want to cover items that will help tune the car across the board from engine, transmission, suspension, and so on.

Any video links on how to use the black box function that I can teach myself with?

The car is a 2000 Trans Am street/strip car with a stock bottom end, stock head engine with a wet shot of nitrous, and all supporting mods for nitrous system. Car also has a built 4L60 transmission and ATI converter.

You will have to configure your FSV2 for BBL, come and post up at the EFILive forum, it's easier there to show you how.

Basically, you configure which PCM/ECM you will be logging from (and reading/flashing), and you configure the pids to log.

Which wideband are you using...?

The set of pids you will be logging depends on what you're doing (correcting VE, correcting MAF, checking engine performance, checking transmission performance, etc...).

And you can log longer if you have an SD card (2GB is good/cheap).
