Ultimate Guide To Starting LT1 Tuning. 94/95 Obd1 Version.

Excellent thread! I just bought Jet DST and ECMPro so this is providing me valuable info. I think I have a question that will provide some valuable info for me and others here. Here goes, I pulled my tune today and was looking at it when I noticed that the Speed Density box is checked. What does this affect and why would the tuner do it?

Also, will the TCC stuff make any difference in a m6 car?

Can someone detail how to set up a gauge such as AEM 30-4100 to datalog?

I am waiting on delivery and want the guy installing the gauge to give me provision for hooking it to a lapto as they are advertised.

Will I use my logging softawre to grab the wideband - by say telling it to pull from the USB port my wideband gets pluged into?

I'm just not clear on how the gauge can give a tuner a log corresponding with the other data logged during a test drive.

Or - can I just compare visual AFR readings at certain drive points to other logged data as an assist?

I know on my ngk afx it can be used VIA the Ac wiring circuit. Then simple calcs can be converted to afr. Usually just need the 5v signal.

I'm using tuner pro and tuner pro rt doesnt work with my car. So all I have been able to do is use winflash trial to read my stock bin and then in tuner pro i can compare bins and if i knew what to change i could flash it to the pcm. that part is cake, its the knowing what to change part thats got me. i could really uuse the locker but i bet I dont have enough posts yet to pm. so i have a 94 with the normal definition file but rt wont work with my car, datamaster did and other stuff did, but not tuner pro:(

Sounds like somebody gave you a SD tune.

TCC controls should be ignored.

1. with freescan running and operational, click "start" in the CSV Logging box. name your file and click "open". after your done logging click "stop".

2. run open office. click "file", "open". find your scan and double click it. then this box will pop up...

in the "separator options" section, make sure only the "comma" box is checked and click "ok".

3. your file should open and be readable now. here are some other things you can do to the file to help viewing...
click the line between the number 1 and 2 row and drag it down to make the row taller like this...
Attachment 7511
then right click the number one row and click "format cells". click the "alignment" tab and select "wrap text automaticly"
Attachment 7514
now you can start shrinking the columns down so they all fit on the page without panning. click the line between the columns (a,b,c,) and drag them to make them smaller, like this
Attachment 7515
finally, click the number 2 row, click "window" and "freeze". this will lock the top row on the top of the page so you will always know what column you are viewing.

that should just about get it. if theres something i left out or need to clarify, let me know. good luck!

BLM locker is incredibly simple. Download. Open. find .bin file. Set to locked. Let it do it's thing. Done. The program is too basic to mess up.

It wouldn't open, said "not a genuine win 32" something or other. Maybe it has to be run in compatibility mode for win 7?

I would assume so. I already locked your BLMs. You don't need to.
