Or is everyone just converting the new table to incorporate their old values?

As I read it:

To get your old values into the new value. Lets say at 45 degrees F

Your old value is 99% or -1%

The value in the new table is -110%

Your old MAT factor is 50%

old value in new tabled would be -104%

.5 % 10% = 5% minus the 1% that was being pulled via MAT correction table.

in the latest stable release they put the MAT correction factor and table into a single table. When you install the firmware your MAT correction table goes away and you get a default table that represents the ideal gas law with a 100% factor. You then have to convert the new values to your old values.

I just made myself comfortable with the new "exposed" MAT correction.

I made myself an Excel spreadsheet, with the standard values of the MAT correction, the 50% correction values and my old correction empirical values...

Look what I get as an resulting line...



The resulting line nearly equals out all the corrections... (and the -40°C and -20°C values are estimates...)
I think this is interesting... (and how often did I read here - "we need to zero out the corrections..." - I think Brain is telling this since ages...)

I posted that a while ago:


default curve:




What a "50%" reduction would look like:




What I'm running:




looks like our end results are very similar.

Basically the table is total corrections table now, instead of before where the table was a corrections table for the built in corrections. It makes much more sense to have it the current way.

Can someone help me undumb myself. I cant for the life of me find the MAT correction table in tunerstudio. Where should this be? I tried turning off all enrichments when I started tuning, is there a way to turn this off? I bought the upgraded TS for my laptop and do not see it on here. I do see the menu on my nonupgraded TS on my desktop.

Don't mention which MS you have or firmware version.

Forgive me for necro'ing this thread, but I am wondering if we have found a better MAT correction curve since then? I am kinda battling this right now and am about to plug in Brain's curve to hopefully stabilize my VE table.
