No plx wideband from what i can find.
Yea that looks like the problem.
 
ok I have a new log with all the values required logged in the sticky. I seem to have fixed the low speed surge, by smoothing out the VE table. low speed driving is much better now. But now I am having lean AFR readings on my wideband gauge during cruising speed in closed loop. the gauge reads 15-18 AFR and the logged values about the same, but the wideband log and gauge read different. how do I richen closed loop during cruising speeds? thanks

so i found what was wrong. the basetipintpsadj was set to a crazy high amount, and the wideband had to be set as linear and voltages adjusted. after changing those values the car drives great now, and my wideband log matches my gauge reading.
