Anyone Here Tune With Nistune?

[VB-]

going to be doing base tune on a mates car tmr, he hasnt got the wideband setup yet (tech edge). going to use winlog/tewblog and want to know, to get the load signal to the wideband, can it be done via software from nistune, or do we have to actually wire it straight off the AFM?

or is there some sort of logging program that works with nistune, that can log A:F ratio in matix mode?

thanks guys,

Ben

edit - i dont think hes wired the AFM to the wideband. ecu has been internally modified for his AFM, i think he mentioned something about it working on a weird voltage scale, like 2-7 volts or some such thing. do any Z32 AFM's work on a werid scale like that (think its a z32, not sure)

Nistune will be able to log the load for you internally make sure the afm gives the correct reading the ecu is ment to see.

Nistune will also maptrace afrs for you.

The techedge will some with a serial output, plug this into your laptop

Inside Nistune use File-Configuration and then

(a) wideband set to TechEdge 2.0 wideband

(b) wideband directory C:\Program Files\NIStune\Wideband\TechEdge2.0

thats where the lookup tables for AFRs, auxillary inputs etc are

Nistune will read the load in from your ECU directly (via usb cable) and display that along with the AFRs. As crans mentioned you can do AFR tracing against load/PRM scales and record/playback with the log player

If you are using a VL Turbo ECU with Z32 AFM.... after doing the wiring to the AFM plug (make sure yellow/red calibration line goes through 370 ohm resistor to ground) then you need to modify the ECU to work with this later era AFM

The details are in the software users manual. There are wideband and AFM upgrade sections with step by step instructions to help you there. Once you do that, edit the VL turbo address file and remove the line MAF_OFFSET so the AFM voltage is reported correctly now with the Z32 AFM in the software

We have a forum for Nistune questions etc at www.nistune.com under forums also

champion. thanks for that Matt, was going to sign up on nistune forums but didnt think i'd find out in time. must say this is damn good service.

thanks bud

edit - yes, VLT, ECU has been pre modded and setup, just needs a tune to suit current setup
