Got a blog about MEGASQUIRT - hope you like.
I think it can help people that are trying to start tuning.
I don't know all about tuning and I believe I have a few mistakes there, so I would love to get some input about it.
Thanks !

This is looking great! I've started a Wiki thing myself to chronicle and fill with my tuning adventures, and seeing as how I'm going down the same path as you, I'll keep an eye on this. Thanks for putting in the time/effort to writing this stuff down!

High resolution AFR table
The AFR table is serving two main purposes:
1. Autotune
2. EGO
If we take into consideration that we want EGO to be limited to 100kpa (upper limit) then we only need to decide if we want to use autotune for boost (above 100kpa) or not.
I would advice against it, tune boost manually, it is easy and safer.
If you will tune boost VE manually then you will have only EGO that is using the AFR table, and EGO is limited to 100kpa, so why not use the whole AFR map upto 100kpa ?
That will give you a high resolution AFR table !
HD AFR table ?...

if you dont limit ego to 100kPa why would you want cells to stop there?
I will agree, if you do, for some odd reason, limit your EGO tables to 100kPa but still happen to hit areas above them, you wouldn't need your AFR table, or any table, to go above those rows.

I didn't understand sorry.
If you hit cells above 100kpa - naturally because we are talking boosted cars, you need your VE and spark at full scale, AFR can go up EGO limit.
Looks good to me...

I think that you wouldn't want EGO (or it is not effective) in boost.
I haven't had problems with AFR in boost that needed correction - sometime getting in and out of boost happen to fast for EGO to even react.
The AFR areas where EGO is most needed (as I see it) are idle and cruise.
