Default efilive roadrunner

Bought this and have had it running on a TOTALLY new combo for the past 2 weeks. The realtime ve tuning is just awesome. I just open the scanner and tuner...start logging and drive around. It does everything for me....Its cool driving around watching the wideband start to move towards stoich as it is auto correcting. I am now running open loop speed density and havent missed the maf a bit. Even got the 96# injectors with versafueler idling a 14.7 a/f thanks to Nitrorocket.
My favorite part of the roadrunner is the real time stuff.....i have my daughter change all kinds of stuff while we are driving down the road and instantly get to see how i like stuff....no stopping...saving ...loading etc....just change Example: that 3-4 part throttle shift point and see if i like it...if not hit undo...if so...it is automatically "saved" into the roadrunner.

Thanks Greenlightmotorsports and Onfire...you guys made me a efilive/roadrunner/olsd believer!!!

Good to see another Georgia boy with an Efilive and roadrunner. Maybe you and your daughter can help me with mine when I get the twin turbos.

Forged 347, diamond 8.6cc dished, eagle h-beams and patriot 6.0 heads. Planning on the APS kit right now. So far I am liking their kit better. What you think?

APS kit looks good!!! I think it will do really well on a 346 ci motor.

Gametech, i made a post in fueling i think but it all gets credited to nitrorocket
small pulse adjust can take MINUS numbers so i used Nitros recommend of -.3 to -.4
set IFR in idle and high vac areas to 100# injectors (pcm allows smaller pw for those i guess)
and fp is at 43psi with hose off

I tried some boost tuning to no avail today....i get to 55mph and floor it....i got it set to stay in 3rd gear.....boost climbs but once it hits 80-85mph, the tires break loose and i gotta get out of it. Ill try it again at the track this weekend with tires. besides, i am getting a cutout friday and my current 10.4af will prolly lean out a good bit since it will make more hp per psi with open exhaust.
