Okay, so I've read the scan and tune manuals and now my head really hurts. Here's what I'd like to do and how I've understood how to do it. I'm going to use my EFILive for the first time tomorrow so please correct me if I'm wrong.
#1. To Download current tune in PCM and save on disc.
- connect PCM, flashscan cable and PCM
- open EFILive Tune
- turn ignition key to on
- choose Flashscan>Read PCM Calibrations
- choose File>Save As>filename>location
I should now have a backup of my current tune in case something goes screwy later on when I try to tune my car.
#2. To Log Data from my PCM
- open EFI Scan
- click on the green button below File menu
- choose PID tab and pick PID's to log
- push start/stop logging on flashscan to start logging data
- drive around for about 20 minutes at different speeds and RPM's
- push start/stop logging on flashscan to stop logging data
- retrieve logged data
- analyze using MAPs tab
If there's anything I've missed please let me know.
Thanks Guys
