    Airflow Units?

    Hi guys. I just got HPTuners ("upgraded" from EFILive) and really like it so far. When viewing tables with airflow do you generally leave them at lbs/hour? EFILive defaulted to grams/sec so that's what I'm used to. Thanks in advance.

    To me, they are just arbitrary numbers (there are probably others out there smarter than me who need real numbers in a specific format to use for fancy math stuff, for all I know). Bigger numbers signify more airflow which means it will add more fuel - they wouldn't necessarily even need to be numbers, they could be different kinds of fruit, or funny animated cat GIFs. As long as you had a method of recording and then applying an error % to the funny cat GIFs to make corrections, who cares.

    What is the ECM ID for funny cat GIFs? Is this something that was added in the last beta?

    As a blind squirrel, you are in dangerous territory with that VE table! Be careful!
