$6E Tuning Tips 4 Laymen any interest?

Well I am getting close to my tune and be abel to drive. And form 6 months ago I have come a long way with stock 305 88 auto from $32 to $6E injectors and going through all the tables. Any interest in write up, without being flamed for my lack of expertise in code, but from a laymens perspective of what worked for me to get to a drivable tune from

MAF Tables
Inj constant
fuel pressure
inj swap
Spark/AE/PE tune

all this was with NB and I am hoping to have my WB installed next week to start more testing. I couldnt have done it with all the support of TGO but I am getting good tire squealing results on a stock 305 so much so that for a fun cruiser I do not even think I want spend more $ to get bigger engine just new muffler heads and rollers to replace the beat up stock ones and call it a day

A better description of what you did to each of these would help the next guy who is starting from scratch. Anything you could contribute is welcomed.

That's what we all have said at one point in time.
That thought passes quickly when the Summit catalog shows up!

Re: $6E Tuning Tips 4 Laymen any interest?

I am very interested to hear about the process you went through, any specifics regarding the application of tuning theory would very much appreciated. For example, how did you change the timing table. Did you just globally add to the table until the engined knocked, did you smooth the table, what smoothing factor did you use in tuner pro etc. Thanks in advance
