Default If you had?

If you had a small bucking / surge issue in your car around 1400 to 2300 rpm in every gear. What would you adjust first ?

sounds like too much airflow.

To test this theory, for the short-term, try zero-ing your throttle cracker table from 1400-2300 (14-2400 will be the real numbers) and see what you get. Too much airflow can be from too much throttle cracker, your base airflow may even be too high which feeds into this.

I made a post over on HPT's forum about "moving airflow" in general that may help to explain table relationships a bit further. http://www.hptuners.com/forum/showpo...28&postcount=3

No that can make it worse, you have too much airflow, not too little.

Try what I said to try in the above post, zero-ing out the TC where the surge is. If it goes away, that's not necessarily the fix, but it shows you that too much airflow is the problem.

Post your file and any logs that you have taken.
