So I've finally started tuning my LE5. I have had my LNF apart for a bit now so I decided to play around with my other car. I have only done 2 tunes / logs so far and already it has picked up a lot of torque and throttle response so I am very happy. I believe I have also gained a bit of power up top but it's so slow anyways it's really hard to tell. I was hoping to have an intake on it as well for this process but I couldn't get one delivered before I was to leave for my trip. I'm not looking for much out of this just wanted to start tuning LE5s and gain a bit of power from my DD. I will be doing the tune on Jon's GTX3076r LSJ in the spring but that is quite some time away.

What are you tuning? Mostly spark advance or some cam stuff too?

KMO43

I did the torque tables doing MAF and AFR currently then I'll be moving on to timing and cam tables. I need to build and improve on my scanner too.

What torque tables?

KMO43

All the ones that limit the car down low.

I think he meant the torque management. Or hes still talking lnf talk lol

And yes, we will be getting my pos car up and running after a few slight modifications that need to be done this winter

Tq managment = every table maxed out

CobiJack

Are you using a wide band or just the narrow band for AFR?

KMO43

Yup. I don't have it set to 100s in my LNF tho

Narrow. The car is stock we will be getting a portable wideband to use eventually

CobiJack

I was just curious because I have hptuners arriving today and I wasn't sure how much I could really do with AFR and a narrow band. My car is all stock also, I want to mess around with some tables to get the feel of it before I get the SC together.

I'm happy with my results so far. I'm back home visiting so I dont have a ton of time to work on it but for now it's a noticeable improvement

Little bit of a different story

KMO43

Ya last time I was here I logged my LNF had to do 4th gear pulls so was doing 90 to 130s the LE5 can do 2nd gear pulls with no spin so makes it much easier

Start with a good MAF calibration. Then bump and smooth out your timing maps.

If you're stock, there's not a ton to be had from VVT tuning. But if you want to try, make small changes and do lots of logging between to see if you are helping or hurting. It's fairly good for an all stock engine.

I wouldnt touch the maf cal if youre still on the stock intake.

Just a base lol. Need to get some E

My trims were quite a bit off on a full stock setup a bit too much for my liking.

Slowbalt2000

iTrader: (1)

Did you turn ve off and go maf only?

KMO43

Just turned off LTFTs to dial it in a bit. I haven't had much time to work on it so far but I'm happy with it so far

Ve could be affecting your fuel trims too

KMO43

I think the massive amount of acceleration affects them!
