I did a data log on my car this morning (I think). Can anyone open the attached file and see the engine data? I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.

You collected data alright. I took a brief look at it. Car doesn't look like it went anywhere, just like it was being revved a bit. Your LTFT is populated with a few -2s but because you didn't really get the car loaded up it's not super useful.

Utinator

Cool! I guess it worked, then. Yeah, I didn't go anywhere. I just wanted to see if I could log data and save it. Eventually, I want to be able to send files like this to my tuner. I'm not ready to make my own edits yet.

DFORESI

Well there aren't a ton of PIDs logged. You'll probably want to have your tuner give you a list to record.

Utinator

Yeah, I still need to figure that out. I added a few PIDs, but I don't know which ones are really needed.I saw a HP Tuners video where they mentioned having some "basic" layouts (that can be downloaded), but I haven't found them yet.

DFORESI

Pre-made layouts are probably a good place to start. If I recall correctly I think the rule of thumb is logging more than 24 PIDs at a time will cause the data acquisition rate to slow down. FYI
