So back when I had the Power FC there were spread sheets to help people tune their cars. I have yet to see one made for the Adaptronic (maybe some of those others would work) but I think its good to have one made by someone using the adaptronic. So I spent a couple hours making one and here it is. IM IN NO WAY AM SAYING THIS IS A WOT AUTOTUNE. Tune at your own risk.
here are the steps to use the sheet
1: export your map from adaptronic into an excel sheet.
-top menu click MAPS>EXPORT MAPS
2: open that sheet and copy out the data from the fuel table.
Paste it into the current map tab in the tuning spreadsheet.
3: open your log and delete any unnecessary data point except the WOT pull. SAVE.
4: open MEGALOGVIEWER (free download online) and open that log
5: click on HISTOGRAM/TABLE, This step MUST BE DONE TO MAKE THE TABLE CROSS OVER!! You must change all of the RPM and BOOST points to fit the spread sheet and your tune. To do this simply click and type in the data point you need. Looking at this you will think the map BOOST is backwards, which it is. Adaptronic boost goes from vacuum to boost, but megalog goes from boost to vacuum don’t worry the Tuning spread sheet will flip this. (as you can see my maps RPM is spaced out in 300 increments, if yours is the typical 500 than make it match YOUR adaptronic table!!)
6: select either TARGET AFR or AFR for the Z AXIS. And delete anything in the Z=AXIS DELTA space, copy and paste these into the appropriate tab in the Tuning sheet.
The rest of the sheet will automatically populate what is needed and you can change your fuel map accordingly.
Tab 1: current fuel map, paste in current map, CHANGE YOUR RPM AND BOOST TO MATCH YOUR ADAPTRONIC MAP, IT WILL CHANGE ALL THE CELLS THROUGHOUT THE SHEET
Tab 2: desired AFR, past in target AFR from MEGALOG
Tab 3: Actual AFR, paste in AFR from MEGALOG
Tab 4: The difference in actual AFR and target AFR, RED IS RICH, GREEN IS LEAN!!
Tab 5: The % of change in order to reach target AFR, here GREEN IS THE RICH POINTS AND RED ARE LEAN POINTS. THE ARROW INDICATES THE NEED TO ADD OR SUBTRACT FUEL BY THE %
Tab 6: This is the current map and the difference of the % change.
Tab 7: This is your new fuel map
Tab 8: These are the cells that need to be changed and what they need to be changed to.
Thanks for looking if you have any feedback let me know and I can make changes accordingly
hum... I made the spreadsheet in excel 10' and its not letting me upload the file as a .xlsx file... and I cant save as a .xls file because it will corrupt the formulas...
so im going to try to attach it as a renamed .doc file so save it and try to rename it back to .xlsx file. some one let me know it it works. Thanks
I would not use this as the initial spreadsheet and formulas this was modified from were related to an ECU that was tuning fuel in injector ms and not VE.
Now I am no expert but in injector ms tuning the value in the table is directly related to how long in ms the injector is open and spraying fuel. In a VE fuel map the VE numbers are arbitrary values that play into a larger calculation and they do not reflect any physical measurable value.
That being said when you increase a VE number in a VE fuel map by 5% per say, the actual fuel sprayed is not 5% more. If tuning in injector ms and you increase the value in a cell by 5% then you will yield 5% more fuel.
Therefor I believe the output of this spreadsheet could be extremely skewed. I do not claim to fully understand the VE calculation that goes on inside the ECU however would very much like to know should someone want to fill us in.
If I am wrong in my theory here please feel free to advise.
This spread sheet was made entirely by me and none of the formulas were taken from any MS sheets. As you said the VE table has no real meaning in the overall scheme of things but using this sheet I did dial in the AFR with in .2 of each other. Now again I wouldn't advise using this to tune all together but I feel its a good tool to use to get you half way. I have been tuning my car for a while now and only used this sheet on the last revision. I prolly wont continue to use it as my fuel table is already pretty much set. I was just putting this out there for any one who might want to use it. Like I said tune at your own risk. Thanks.
