    Nissan 370Z Weird Tuning Issue

    I'm having issues with mapping a 2011 Nissan 370Z (automatic transmission)

    So far I've been able to make changes to the MAF A and B calibration to
    adjust the fueling. But when I've adjusted the intake cam advance tables,
    the high and low detonation spark trim adjustment tables, as well as the
    VVEL main 1 and 2/VVEL max/VVEL duration WOT. I cannot see any results on
    the dyno as well as any change in the data logs. I've made logs and
    attached the calibrations for any one to review and shed light on the issue.

    Rev 114 is the original map with tweaks to the MAF calibration to get the
    fueling leaned out a bit. Other than this, the VVEL, VTC, and Timing has
    not been modified.

    Rev 115 - i've added 10 degrees of advance from the 80% load cell to the
    128% load cell and have interpolated between the 64% and 80% load to smooth
    out. The changes have been made to the "intake camshaft advance main"
    table. As you can see in the log labeled "Pull on rev 115" the difference
    in VTC shown has not changed since rev 114 despite the changes in the
    calibration

    I can provide logs of the car doing the same thing for the spark and vvel
    if required. But i feel it is pretty redundant. Has anyone experienced this odd behavior?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    guys in general i have been tuning Nissan for a long time, gains are minimal also a tip they like to be on the rich side especially higher loads

    your spark will be probably around 28/32 top end

    Regarding timing, no there is not another address the tables are correct. Please reference the tuning guide covering this, this topic has been discussed already.

    Evan,

    And insight regarding the VTC and VVEL changes not actually being applied??

    I have a 2016 370z with high flow cats, exhaust & a Z1 intake kit. Is there a lot to gain with tuning?

    VVEL mapping and AFR might net you a little but chances are the AFR is probably running pretty close to commanded after a few hundred miles of driving. Generally Nissan runs these engines pretty rich at WOT on the stock tunes. AFR in the 10s and 11s. You can set them around 12.6 in the midrange and 13-13.2 up top and gain a little power safely. VVEL changes should make a little midrange power and help power over peak as well. They did in my M56S atleast.
