    Default throttle follower question

    throttle cracker aug11 2012.efi Don't know why but on my throttle follower scan it wants me to add .35 on the 23.55% throttle. It seems very odd that it jumps that high in that catogory.. Any ideas??? Here is a copy of my scan.

    Also on a m6 car when you add to the throttle follower which decay rate are you supposed to adjust by the same percentage??

    not sure what you mean here, how do you mean "add" 0.35 on the 23.55% throttle. Really need to see the tune posted as well.
    Throttle follower is better described (at least I think so) as a throttle "leader". IE: it leads the throttle movement with a coresponding movement in the Idle control solenoid by a pre determined amount set in the table. It affects the feel of clutch engagement, or gently pulling away from a stop in an auto. Once you're nailing the throttle it becomes irrelevant. Once you're past about 3 to 4% throttle, where it all matters, forget about it. Its a feel or drivibility setting really. Hope this helps,
    cheers,
