Is my TPS shot ?
 
2 Attachment(s)
Trying to get my car started for the first time since MS & LC-1 install..
It's having major idle issues so I did a log and really had no idea what I'm looking at. But, I did see that the TP stays @ 49 the entire time.

Did some more research about this and realized I hadn't done a TPS calibration in MS, so when I goto Calibrate TPS and 'get current' on closed & full throttle, they both say 125.

Now, I'm sure this isn't entirely why I'm having idle issues, but I'm sure it doesn't help if it's shot.

I'm about as Newb as you can get when it comes to anything computer electronics , tuning, etc... I've been reading and searching for many months(I'm a pretty slow learner) to give myself atleast general knowledge to install the proper equipment needed for me get this thing atleast driveable to a tuner, but I can't even get it to idle. It's becoming frustrating.

If anyone has the time to check out my log here it is... And thanks in advance.

Hmm, tough to say by looking at your log/msq. Your log does look strange to me...afrs and map seem to be all over the place given you're just idling.

About your TPS, if you have your stock 1.6 TPS installed, its not a vtps, its an on/off switch. I wouldn't concern yourself with it unless you're planning on swapping in a vtps.

Have you set your base timing properly? It looks like you did but just making sure.
Calibrate your WB02? Is MS matching your gauge? I didn't notice any in the log but are you getting resets? Looks like you're pretty lean most of the time also.

Haha after reading that I said "Oh Yeah! I knew that! God, I'm retarded..."

Base timing is set to 10.

I'm sure that the LC-1 is the menace, just was hoping it wasn't.

I recalibrated it a couple weeks ago and set both of the outputs to 0-5v = 10-20afr but the Gauge doesn't match MS.

I did wire it up in an unorthodox way ... https://www.miataturbo.net/forum/t28316/

If you think your LC1 wiring is at all "unorthodox" it isn't going to work properly. It is a very picky piece of equipment. Wire it up right and fugetaboutit.
