I would recommend that you cancel your dyno. Don't dyno the car until you understand your ECU. I would not rely on the dyno operator being a MS expert (unless he claims to be and at least one disinterested party has confirmed it). You could waste a lot of money otherwise. Dyno time should be used to refine your spark map. Your should have pretty solid fuel before showing up.

Like I said, that's how I do it, and if he hasn't tuned it at all, that will get him started. I am pretty sure you have to register the software in order to use VE-analyze live. My tuning computer is an old piece with a broken Ethernet card and no wireless so I couldn't register, even if I wasn't a cheap SOB.

Thanks guys, it's all sorted. Was the injector constant, as Brain suggested. I also got a little idle and cruise tuning in. Now idles at stoich and cruises at ~15:1. WOT with 16 pounds it's at 11.5:1.

Thanks!

It's not for tuning, it's a power day . Already tuned the spark, I was just running on the base fuel map. Funny thing is it worked for nearly a year with no problems... Lucky me.
