Don't increase your req_fuel to artificially keep the VE low. That's a poor idea and reduces the accuracy of the calculations. The maximum VE is 255 so you have loads of space.

(Some people reduce their req_fuel so they can increase the VE numbers and get more tunability.)

Ok thanks james - I have a huge turbo on my bmw and I was hitting 90 VE at like 90KPa and I was concerned I'd run out of headroom.

So what your saying is: set your RF for what the motor is whether it's Boosted or not? :?:
