The tune seems to be great at full throttle, made 230whp/160wtq with just IHE on a JDM K20A.
Driveability is a different matter. The car is somewhat jerky at light throttle, say less than 5% TPS, it'll buck back and forth.
The idle also goes down to about 1600 at first, then drops to 1200, and finally the correct 975 when it stops.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

Your tune needs work. How much you pay for your tune and why are your o2 sensor cel's disabled (only for race engines!!)?ct9ars wrote:The tune seems to be great at full throttle, made 230whp/160wtq with just IHE on a JDM K20A.

It's a very generic tune. No lean protection, high cam angle tables look horrible, vtc pt is too high (probably missing some mid-range tq!!!!) I see this too many times. Those CEL's are for the primary and not for the 2ndary.ct9ars wrote:It was done by a shop here, LHT along with the swap. The tune was included with the engine installation.
What's wrong with the tune? I thought that only the secondary O2 CEL's were disabled since there is no secondary O2 in the car.
Where's your dyno graph?
I wouldn't mind having it retuned. There aren't many tuners here, maybe one more that I can take it to for the car to get retuned.
I'll turn those two options back on then. Is the tune unsafe, or just not optimized for maximum power/driveability?
It's a road race car so having a dangerous tune could be a problem.
I'll scan the graph when I get home. The power/torque is on par with what it is and the A/Fs seemed decent.
