Very Nice! I was hoping for this since I used Pers' RV8Tune.
Went for a drive and it does'nt have the bad habit of leaning the VE on a long decel like RV8Tune did.
I ran the before and after VEXs through a comaparitor.
While I need to check my EGO settings to double check, it looks like autotune will make adjustments outside of the EGO settings, i.e. I should be open loop at 75KPA but it made adjustments over that.
I attached the saved comparison as an HTML and included the datalog of the drive.
I'll drive it again tomorrow morning.
Megatune just got even better! What are you gonna do next? (:

Q,
But it very well could, I think you just got lucky with the settings that I've got hard-coded right now... It may also be that whatever code you are running now has EGO correction disabled during decel and the old code didn't? (Could be the algorithms, too, I just used Per's concept and didn't really look at his implementation.)
Here's a sanitized version of the code, it's almost too trivial to even mention:
Code: Select all
if (timeNow() >= nextUpdate) {
if (atp.insideWindow(vX, vY)
&& atp.nearVertex (vX, vY, XBIN(iXBIN), YBIN(iYBIN))) {
double egoCorr = mdb.getByName(S_egoCorrection, 0);
double veCurr = mdb.getByName(S_veCurr, 0);
double steps = atp.pGain * veCurr/100.0 * (egoCorr-100);
if (steps != 0 && z->incRaw(steps, iZVAL)) {
mdb.cDesc.send(z, iZVAL);
}
}
nextUpdate = timeNow() + atp.dT;
}
While I need to check my EGO settings to double check, it looks like autotune will make adjustments outside of the EGO settings, i.e. I should be open loop at 75KPA but it made adjustments over that.
That is correct, I have not put any real limits on it yet (see above), so it will just keep on correcting down to 0% if that's what EGO correction says to do...

I'm thinking I'll learn to tap dance (I took up unicycle riding about 10 years ago).

Here's a look at the 3D maps before and after the first run with the autotune on.

How do you disable EGO during decel? - I have been tryiing to get my ECU to do this.

What version of code are you using?
MSNS-E has "overrun fuel cut" standard B&G does'nt.
"Trivial"? (:
On my way to work I'll see what happens with a highspeed decel on the highway. We'll test my "luck".
I'm gonna have some fun testing this.

I am using MSnS-Extra, code 025n. I know there is the over run fuel cut, I was hoping there was another way other than cutting the fuel completely, unless that method is completely harmless on a naturally aspirated car.

Full fuel cut is completely safe, it's like stalling the motor. If you are doing it on decel then you won't even know it's happening (try coasting in gear and switch the ignition on and off, on my cars I feel no difference).

Well, it sure is uglifying the map... It mostly appears to be leaning things out, but there is that one rich hump left of center at the back.
Do the results look trustworthy to you? (They don't to me.)

i run the fuel cut and its great especially on my low compression subaru turbo motor

hmm can't get figure out how to get the autotune turned on in msnsextra 025n9
