Hello, Hopping someone may have some experience with a tuned 1.4t E78 PE fuel tables. Running into a lean issue under medium throttle and engine load. Basically under normal to medium throttle input 40-55% under 40-70 engine load starting at as low as 1600 rpm to 3k AFR will stay 14.7 causing hesitation due to running lean. PE won't come on until throttle is above about 60% and engine load is about 70% + then PE will add fuel down to 11.5-11.9 afr and down to 10.5 at WOT. If I run light throttle no issues as expected or if I'm moderate to heavy PE comes on 11.5-11.9AFR no issues. It's all the middle throttle modulation under medium throttle and engine loads that I need PE to come on earlier to address the lean issue of staying 14.7 afr.

This seem to be an issue on all 1.4t tuned cars as they are based off the stock tune which is already very lean with a late PE fuel table. Has anyone come across this and found proper PE fuel table? What recommended changes in EFIlive do I ask my tuner to change throttle % table, a load % table? Attached is the tune which you can see how late PE comes on along with logs where I was able to replicate the lean issue under the throttle % and engine load %.

Should I just ask to change throttle % and engine load % table for PE at 50% as a starting point to data log?

I'm still learning so any input is appreciated.235592355723558

I'm not able to open your .ctz file with V7 or V8 tunetools.

Thank you for the reply. I have EFI live Limited 8.2. I don't have access to full version of EFI live so don't have access to PE tables. But I reattached the engine tune. Let me know if that works. I downloaded the tune from the cars ecm via the handheld Autocal.

Ok, I'll try opening your new tune file.
