Touch VE - touch it alot. If - WHEN your maf fails, you will pat yourself on the back for not popping your engine.

 

for the 05-06 you can leave the maf and ve tables alone if you're doing 42lbers. they will be fine. cruise won't freak. once you get to 60's minor tweeks here and there to either one will be fine. the cruise won't **** itself and you won't throw a p0068 code.

07's have the 68 code shut off factory, so my ve table looks like *****

 

Oh and mine's an 05 and cruise control works fine.

***** FTMFW!

 

mmmmm..(__.__)(__.__)

 

I was not expecting any HP out of tuning the VE. I was more expecting that that it would smooth things out. I also don't mind spending the time on it. No I did not cut and paist that. It was just what I'm thinking.

 

i didnt mean nothing by it..just wondering where u got the info from (if it was from another forum) ur not going to feel it from tuning ve..but like stated it would be a nice warm fuzzy if ur maf fails

 

No offence taken

Well...I'm a petroleum engineer and deal in volumetrics all the time. I just find it hard to believe that they would put this table in and all it does is hang out until one day his buddy the MAF fails.

 

I really don't think it makes much, if any difference. But if I had the time and didn't mind putting the gas in then I'd probably do it just for the hell of it.

 

First of all, our VE isn't true volumetric efficiency, so it really doesn't make huge ammounts of difference. It does make some though. Is it worth the extra time and fuel? It is to me, but I am OCD. I keep my long trims pretty much at =/-2%. I do notice that, although the idle is smooth, with a screwed VE table, my short trims will bounce from +3 to -5 in one cell. With my VE nailed I get +1 to -2 in the same cell. To most people, that's not even worth dicking with it. To me it is.

 

I agree. If your going to do something right you may as well go all the way.

 

i love u steve lol

 

haha....

 

kaisoboy steve is very smart...and is prolly most of the best tuners fuel guy...pick his brain and u will be educated

and i thought i would point this out from the tech support for our car...

Makes sense. Thats pretty much what we figured was tuning ve for regular cruising, part throttle, driving etc.

 

i have told you that from day one!!!!!!!!

 

Hey guys. It’s all good. If you don't want to bother with VE tuning then don't. I don't mind burning a tank of fuel to try it out. I am not disagreeing with anyone. knowledge is power and I have gained valuable info from all of you. Tuning these cars is almost an art and I'm just trying to gather all the info I can to perfect that art.

Thanks again for all your input into this.

 

yup yup

 

Hey, does anyone have the specs on the seimens 42 lb stage 2 injectors?
