Default Nitrous AFR and EFI Live A0015 Calculator

I was hoping to try this out Saturday on the dyno but was hindered by a car trailer in the slow bank (dug out in 9 degree weather in the wee hours), then by the vette that knew it was to cold to start (jump started), once we got the vette out of the garage and into the driveway, gravity worked well and the vette would slide down the slightest inclination and lacked the traction to recover position...End of the day I had to come-along the Vette back into the garage

Anyways I digress. I had to cancel my dyno session with Vinny in New Hampshire.

Gave Doc a call in Florida and discussed Nitrous tuning and he turned me on to a Nitrous AFR formula from a tuning book released in 07.

I incorporated this into a EFI Live COS 5 A0015 VE multiplier spreadsheet.

Here it is if anyone is interested in looking at and comment. I hope to use this when I can get the car out of the driveway!

Gotta love New England weather, it was 9 on Saturday and supposed to be in the 50's today!
I spent the day pulling the motor out of my GTO instead, so I'm happy to finally get that going.

That's pretty cool Beer, can I post it on my site? The one thing that I have found out about calculated fuel multipliers is they are not absolute, or rather not exact. More a starting point with fine tuning needed. now with that said, still a very valuable tool for those setting their tune up for the first time, they'll be close enough to stay out of trouble.

The tuning we are doing being moot, IMO, not true. Many will already have a tuner program, and/or know they are going to get one, and thus the need for conventional nitrous tuning. I do have an Interface controller to play with, even though I can do all in my HP Tuner program... Though it can make it easier even for those with a program.

XOXO,

Beer,
Not justy an excel ninja, but an EFI Live Ninja as well!
You need to take a trip down to NH as soon as I get my new set-up fired up to help tune it. The snow should be melted by then.

Beer, i was up at Vinny's helping him pull the motor out of his GTO and he was telling me a little bit about your car, i can't wait to see it in person. Good luck getting it out next time, hopefully i can make it back up to check it out.

LOL yes I am begining to get a dyno day complex (last time my new racetronics would not support NA WOT)!

Off to Singapore Monday (hoping Vinny calls and says we can try again before I leave), the Primaries warmed NH/Maine and we are getting a pretty good melt, so I dont think I will have the same issue til the next storm. Job is going well, still have alot to learn.

I would enjoy tuning your car Vinny (I will check on the COS5 LS2 status). Its always more fun working on someone else car than your own, what I don't know, I have numbers for who to ask, the EFI Live tuners are very helpful.

Anthony, hope to met you and the other LS1tech guys at NED, so far only met two board members that go to Oxford (1/8 mile near me).

I am up there enough haha, i think its taken me about 200 passes to learn how to drive my car, and every time I change something I have to learn all over again! One of the guys i work with goes to Oxford with the CMDR (Central Mass Drag Racers) for a few of their events. Good luck with the car and getting everyhting running the way you want it too!

Nifty. Good Job Beer and Doc. I've been trying to read up a little on tuning stuff. I still don't have much of a clue about it, but have been trying to learn. Doc got me initially interested in it seeing his bad *** setup and messing with everyone's cars.
