help with E67 tune pontiac solstice with turbo kit

[billion01]

Hi all,

I am trying to tune a 2007 pontiac solstice with a hahn racecraft turbo kit. I am ready to start tuning but I am not sure which fuel table i should be dealing with for part throttle tuning and full throttle tuning. I see tables for NA and multiple bar maps. Do i have to preset it to look for a certain map like 3 bar map for example?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

thanks!

Hi billion01, welcome to the forum

I am not too familiar with E38/E67, but I'll start you off...

Install the 3-bar sensor and look at tables B2101, 2103.

Thank you for the reply Joecar! I am going crazy trying to figure out this efilive stuff. I am used to systems just saying Fuel table and Ignition table. All this efilive lingo is so new to me. I read on another post about tuning with maf only? I just want to start off creating his fuel table and getting a/f's in safe ranges. If i did tune with maf only which table would I alter?

thanks!

In the tunetool's Search box, type in B2101 in uppercase and press Search... it will take you right to the table.

Somewhere I think there's a parameter for dynamic air threshold (rpm above which MAF is used exclusively), but I can't find it...

i think i may just go follow the guide you sent me and try that. For the E67 you have to pull the yellow wire as well? How come when i use the scan tool and start recording data the highlighted sections on the vve maps only move the rpm highlight while the kpa doesn't move at all? Did i set up something wrong with my pids? Thanks again man you have been a great help. I want to go to the efilive session at the efi university but I live in hawaii so its kinda hard.

In the scantool, on the PIDs tab, on the MAP pid, go rightclick->Metric... and restart both scantool and tunetool.

You are the man dude! Can't wait to try and use the scan and tune tool now! Will let you know how it goes later. Oh I tried the setup config thing you sent me. Man the car did not sound happy at all haha. Surging and sounded weird like it wanted to die out. Will try everything again today. If I am successful with this I am gonna send you some Macadamia nuts and coffee haha

Be sure to read both docs:

E38 VVE Setup Guide
Virtual VE Tutorial

To run MAF only: look at B8024, B8025 (thanks to swingtan/Simon for the info);

My understanding:
when rpm goes above B8024, MAF is used exclusively;
when rpm goes below B8025, VE/MAF are used in some combination (MAF for steady state, VE for transient).

i.e. High Speed = MAF only; Low Speed = VE and/or MAF.
