right.
dunno if you read some of the other posts i been puting up etc , but i got my 2.0 ltr ford pinto efi turbo engine running the other day prety good for a newbie, but not sure on a few things.

1 of my concerns is that a spark table i got froma friend just dosent look right for a turbo charged engine, ie where it is going into boost i would expect the ign to be pulled back a little and not being advanved up.

also when i have ran megatune and got auto tune to work on a small part of the window it has made a right mess or has it actualy made it better.

i just aint sure so rather than me bore the life out of you i have included my .msq and both ve and spark table for you to have a look at.

also plese if any one has a better spark and ve table that may be compatible or more comaptible for me i will gladly give it a go if you dont mind parting with it.
my engine started off life as a ford 2.0 efi engine that got converted to a turbo technics set up.i then ran cosworth management on it but wasnt happy so decided to go to MS.

so its a ford 2.0 ltr pinto with a t3 turbo and cosworth dark green bosch 803's in it with 389.9 flow , with standard cam etc.

you help will be welcome and if i can help anyone back in any way i will if i can as this is what its all about in msefi is helping each other.

here is my files.....lol... thats if i can upload them correctly and if anyone can help please let me know

thanx

i had a look at the ignition table... all tho it's a little bit tretarded, it's not much really. I'd retatd it more on bost... make the max boost row 19 deg just to be safe. other on-boost ignition bins should be retarded aswell... i'd make them all 22* (you can incorporate some smoothing, you dont want big jumps)

do you have wideband to use with autotune ? if not then narrowband will only reliably get you to 14:7, i.e. stoich, you will have to hand tune from there...

yes, autotune will often produce maps that look pretty bad, and are slightly off.... the key thing is to drive in a way which makes autotune job's easier, that will get you getter results. after autotune i'd recommend msteak to finetune your tables...
