Use diyautotune's base map for 1.6 w/o AFM:
http://www.megasquirtpnp.com/models/...20no%20AFM.msq

I can then give you my AFR target table, and tunerstuido's auto tuning can do most of the rest, with a little smoothing on your part.

Unfortunately tunerstuido is now out of beta, so you need to pay $50 (on sale now down from $70!) to use the auto tune feature. If you can't afford it, use the lite version which is free to acclimate yourself to their user interface, even though it's nearly identical to megatune.

What's your target boost?

P.S. Simple green is decent for grease, but it sounded like you were wanting to hose down the engine bay with a...hose. It'll work much better than that. It's somewhere between water and brake cleaner (which will eat paint).

P.P.S. It won't eat paint.

But I'll be nice, here's my current fuel map, built off the base map.

And my AFR target table, built as a compilation of a few posted by wayne_curr, Jeff, and JP.


My spark map is fairly conservative, I'd just use the base map's spark table as long as it runs within your target boost level, which is why I asked you about that earlier.

K cool, thanks for advice. im hoping to be in the 10psi range, but i might not have enough fuel to get there. i did accidentally over boost this last year to 12 but i dont know what my afr was.

On your greddy it'll be "fine" to overboost, since your fuel pump will just have to work harder. It just won't be able to keep up with that kind of pressure, and with the wrong disc you'll be trying to add stupid amounts of fuel at higher pressures.
