Default Wideband / EFI reading off

My reading is off by .27 and I have no clue how to adjust the Calc Pid to reflect the difference.
If my wideband says 14.9 Efi Live says 15.7

Any ideas or should I post up on EFI live's forum?

Yea I remember there being a grounding issue. My grounds aren't very far apart but I can make them both the same in a jiffy.

I am not too familiar with EFI live but I do know with HP tuners which is what I have their can be voltage offsets between the wideband and hp and then you just have to adjust your formula in hptuners to get them to read the same.

If you have the V2 it has a calibration deal where you can tell it what the offset is and it will work around it. I don't remember how to do it...EFILive forums would be the place to go for that.

Also, depending on the wideband you are using, you should look into using the serial input rather than analog. That will take voltage offsets out of the picture completely.

can't use serial with UEGO. but I'll look into your suggestion.
Went ahead and did an SD tune today and ran into a larger problem than a petty .27 afr difference.
Everytime i hit 5200 rpm It goes into Reduced Engine Power.
Looking at some threads right now that may or may not help.
