Megasquirt tuning question

I am at work right now and this is all I can access. I wish I could look at the ms boards, but theyre blocked. ha, anyways, I was wondering in a quick answer how the ms tunes? I know I can use the autotune feature for volumetric efficieny, but I also saw that you can do it for the afr table. Should I leave the Afr table alone for now?

I think, and correct me if I am wrong, that the autotune is best used with autotuning the volumetric efficiency and leaving the afr tables alone right? Like the afr tables are targets that the computer is shooting for, correct?

Re: Megasquirt tuning question

If you are still running Megasquirt, I suggest you download the newest version of MegalogViewer. It has a VE table analyzer that is awesome. Check it out, I prefer it to Autotune because you don't have to hold the engine in the cells for a certain time for it to analyze them.
