Mafcomp looks really odd, should be smooth. airflowperRev should be around 30 with the cams. Attach a log of the somewhat idle, the file given was just the config

Oh and confirm a boost/vac leak test before tuning.
 
What's blt and I will post a log of it running in a bit just got to work :(
 
hey guys here is a log of the car running well somewhat running please help me out

what's up with the timing.? looks strange tooo....
WTF if anything I like to add timing not take it away, but that would be looked at later since the car cannot even idle at the moment. Andranik zero these for now.

hey guys here is a log of the car running well somewhat running please help me out
Did you hold the idle up that high? Looks like the o2 sensor is dead since you locked it into open loop yet its still not cycling.
 
Yeah I was holding the idle up it wouldn't stay on on it's own you think a dead o2 could cause this ?
 
1. You might have blown your sensor ground (guessing by the -74* coolant temp). This is caused by an issue with the front o2 sensor grounding out. Pull the ECU and check this out.
2. Test the ISC (link in post #7).

If 1 and 2 test out ok:

3. Not sure why you raised timing in the lower RPM's. If I were you I'd zero out the timing sliders.
4. Take it out of closed loop and grab an idle log as best as you can. This way we can see what's happening with your front o2 sensor.


It looks like you're using an old firmware version of v3. I'd suggest upgrading to the newest.
