your probly right cause I bet black bear has it pretty close and if I went out with the software one night and just tweaked bit by bit I could probly get it, or if I go the wrong way just reflash the black bear tune back in and start over.


update though
I emailed Justin last night and asked is this the closest you can get it with the data log or can we keep trying?

so I'll probly see a reply next week sometime

would a wideband be worth investing in for my n/a setup?
i've read somewhere you can get a plug in to go into efilive but I dont think thats for the autocal
so other then having a cool looking gauge on the door pod would it be worth getting one?

no the gauge wouldnt really be needed na. i mean tuning with the wide band o2. the auto cal is only for data logging and down loading uploading tunes to your truck. you can not change anything in the tune with a autocal. the best tune will be made using a wide ban o2 logger

oh I know the autocal only reads or writes and I dont have the software to make any changes yet but if I was to install a wideband I'd want the gauge too haha,
does Justin have a dyno?
reason i'm asking that is cause I'm doing a big trip next year and it will involve california as well so maybe I should hold off and book a in person tune with him and if he has a dyno I can get my numbers off that at the same time!

so maybe I just install the wideband and buy the efilive stuff to log from it and then next spring go to his shop and get on the dyno, where the wideband would be handy for him as well.
plus now that Ive been looking at NNBS' with the aem wideband in the door pod I like the look haha
