not really... a bug is an issue with the software after it's determined testable or production ready... not being ready means there needs to be more development time to get it testableQuote:

time for an HPT update :pray:
i dnt suppose the I6s will have this feature?? id love to see how close(or even far) my tunes are to optimal ones :P
aem and accel have had software for quite some time now, that allows for auto-tuning. its more hassle than its worth, really. its so much easier to just manually adjsut everything. the real problem solver would be "real-time" tuning for every application!!!!!
that is what this tuner would like to see
eh, the autotune feature will be a product of the scanner. Real time tuning is a product of our custom operating systems. Two separate people work on both so its not taking time away from one another.Quote:

I want Autotune as much as the next guy, but you are not being fair comparing an aftermarket ECU with a factory one.
Ray was a sharp guy who did assembler programming on a single, small OS. These folks have to deal with reverse engineering hundreds of OSes, with what? Two sharp guys?
That being said, I do believe the diesel and new manufacturer support are taking priority.
I'll be satisfied if they don't drop support for the LS1 ECU's :pray:
I still maintain that better documentation would sell more boxes in the meantime.
We NEED software that the average Joe can use. We need the equivalent of the desktop publishing revolution for tuning.
Any new updates on this, July is right around the corner now...
One thing that would help is if the average joe dropped the extra dough on picking up a wideband o2 setup. Doing any sort of tuning with just fuel trims is like sniping without a scope. You need a level of detail that just isn't available with the stock oxygen sensors. I'm sure people can get it close, some might get it 'dead on' but I think that's the exception and not the norm.
There are literally thousands of parameter that are available in these VCM's and thousands of choices of setups. I can see where it would take awhile to build this function into the software.
Guess I should drop the $300 and upgrade my interface now. Fuel trim tuning is just ugly. Especially when they go in separate directions.
Basically it does what American cars have been going since O2 sensors were fitted, its is mid '80s?Quote:

Americans are not behind on this. In fact they were one of the first due to emmisions concerns/laws.
No, the Link ECU would calculate (auto tune) the VE table in open loop, so that when closed loop was enabled (trimming - what you're talking about) the fuelling error would be +/- a small percentage.Quote:

:yay:Quote:

2 more days to July. Any news yet ?:pray:
they are still working on it....
hopefully finishing it soon..*crossing fingers*
Here's my vote for delaying public release until that comes out :DQuote:
