    Could someone kindly check my tune for VE tuning setup

    Could somebody check my tune to make sure I'm tuning my VE correctly using ltft/stft?

    Issue I'm having is that I've made many logs and seemingly gotten it pretty close. I log for 15-20 min then copy and paste special multiply 1/2 then smooth table some then load tune into truck then reset fuel trims and make another log and repeat. I've had the ve within 1-2% rich up to 3500 rpm or so.

    Then here is the problem I have. I want to use the wb02 sensor for the 3500 rpm and up. so i go into my tune and disable the ltft and stft. then i log and it is showing everything I've already tuned is 5-8% richer than it is with the fuel trims.

    So then i go ahead and make a few logs tuning with the wb02 and get everything back down to 0-2% error. But if i switch back to using fuel trims everything is 5% lean again.

    I just want to make sure I'm going in the right direction.

    My setup is as follows:
    2005 GMC Denali
    LQ9/4L65E
    212/22x 107 lsa truck norris cam
    1-7/8 full length headers 3" dual exhaust with x-pipe
    12574927 8100 vortec injectors
    Cold air intake
    AEM x300 wired into serial to usb

    Here is my current log and tune.

    Thank you for your time

    If I understand your quandary, your attempting to tune with the factory NBO2's, then do similar tuning with an aftermarket WBO2's? I know you mentioned a cut line of 3500 rpm but that's not the best way to look at it. Separate your tuning line with when you want the PCM to go into open loop, or more commonly referenced to PE. Tune everything below PE with the NBO2's and take care of open loop PE with the WBO2s. You can compare the two when done but don't chase your tail attempting to pit the the sensors against each other.

    Rarely will the factory NBO2's and an after market WBO2's line up perfectly. If your seeing a 3 to 5% difference between the two, your in the ball park.

    I didn't look into how you have your WBO2s controller set up, but that can be a real issue and can drastically effect the sensor output reading.

    Your closed loop is turned off if youre wanting it on for tuning with trims. closed loop enable.jpg

    Trims and widebands dont agree perfectly all the time. a 5% swing is still pretty good. Youre VE still needs some work though pretty sharp transitions everywhere on the map. Use the trims for anything other than power enrichment or wide open throttle. Once it goes into those areas you can blend where the trims end into the wideband readings. If youre going to use trims when youre all done, then rely on the trims in the areas they can cover.

    Heres a post i made a few years ago about interpolating cells on the VE table. https://forum.hptuners.com/showthrea...sepowerguru427 nowdays, I Usually only use "Paste special" the first iteration or so of changes. After that I adjust individual areas based on what the log shows. Such as if 2000rpm is lean 5% from 40kpa-70kpa then ill just richen up that specific area by 5% and retest after covering all the areas that are not where i want them to be at.
