Default Predator tune adjustments ??

Hi all... I got a Diablo Predator for xmas, and I have the Diablo Tune - No DOD installed right now on my '06 Monte SS... what I'm looking for, is for someone to view the logs I have and tell me what's good, bad, and/or ugly... and if anyone can chime in as to what I should adjust/change.

I have 4 logs I've done. The latest 2, I had modified the injector slope to -6, since my previous log showed the LTFT from 0(min) to 14.something(max)... the average being 7.something... so when I just installed the tune again, I modified the slope to -6, instead of -7.something, just to be safe.

Here's a link to the log files: 06MonteSS Logs

All runs/logs have been done with the Performance "Diablo - No DOD" tune installed -- and I have a cold air intake box/filter if that makes a difference (pics/info about it )

Any input is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!

k... I made some changes today... I used the Diablo No DOD performance tune - I set the LTFT to -3, and the PE to +3, based on my other logs I've done.

After warming the car up and driving around for 20 minutes, I started to log... I went up the on ramp to the highway and got on it up the ramp - once on the highway, I set the cruise control to 65... did this for about 15 minutes, got off the highway, got back on going back home for about another 15-20 mins, got on it up the ramp, but too much traffic going East to use the cruise, so I pedalled it between 60 and 70 - getting on it a few times from a 60mph roll up to 80. and also some short bursts off the highway.

Anyway, here's a link to the newest log file, and it's .csv counterpart: Latest log file

Should I go down more on the ltft? add more to the PE, or leave it at 0?? etc etc... do I need to drive for a couple days after making any changes to see what the values come out to?

Again, any info as to what I should adjust, or by how much, is greatly appreciated!

thanks Sneaky... guess I'll wait to see if he has a chance to chime in or not, now that the holidays are over... WHEW!! LOL

here are 2 more new logs I took over the past couple days... these are with the stock Diablo No DOD tune with the LTFT and PE params reset to default tune settings - not the -3 and +3 I had them at before in the other logs.

>> Newest Logs <<

well, took another log on the way home - this time all back roads, up-n-down hills, couldn't really get on it much tho... still using the "stock" Diablo No DOD performance tune...

ltft's look lower than other logs - is this because I was going slower than when on the highway?? still have some KR though... interesting... maybe cuz everything's still "learning" after I disconnected the battery 2 or 3 days ago??

>> Here's tonight's log <<

anyone have any thoughts/input?? I know Johan is the guy to get to look at these, but I'm sure all of you others have done this same stuff... as I'm sure Johan is swamped from just getting back after the holidays...

also, since I did the "reset all tune parameters" and reinstalled the Diablo No DOD performance tune, it doesn't seem as "peppy" as it did the first/initial time I did it. Is this because I pulled the battery cable and the cars learned settings got reset??

Thanks!
