    This is a good possiblility. Is there a specific file for the LL8?

    Has anyone taken a look at the tune and scan files I offered to see if there is any inconsistancy with those?
    What I do find odd is when using B0918 for example, the left parameter is "RPM" and the top parameter is "vacuum kPa". Typlically what I have seen is will for the most part, display the parameter name like "SAE.RPM".

    If anyone wants to see more data logs, let me know and I can send you those.

    Thanks for the help so far guys.

    There is only one cal_link file. Mine is located here: C:\Program Files\EFILive\V7.5\Configuration

    If you want the link to work, you have to go into that file and add the necessary items to the LL8 section. Open that file and take a look. LL8 is there, but without links.

    You have to know what PIDs you want to link into what table, and if it linsk to a row or a col...

    Then edit that file and insert a line that looks similar to this (with your PID and table of course):

    B0101.ROW=SAE.RPM

    This example line links SAE.RPM into the B0101 table.

    When I saw he LL8 was empty, I had a feeling I was going to have to do this. Thanks for the info Joe, I'll get back to you and let you all know how it turns out.

    Awesome, Ill look into this probably tomorrow with my 02 LL8. Ive really wanted to get this working, might be able to get a better idea of what my LL8 really wants vs what Ive given it via tuning.
