Default I put back SEL to 100 again after you and I diagnosed I had throttle cut during dyno pull. Seems
faster now. :-)

Default With lemmiwinks, you can lower requested load by adjusting SEL Scaling....
at least this is my understanding, that SEL Scaling is an adjustment of requested load.

Default Hell yes, it is faster now. Send me some logs when you get a chance.
I'd love to compare your before/after. I'm telling you, that killed your dyno #s. You should go back and see what #s your puts up now.

Default
25% SEL is a good valet mode. ~ 0 boost.

Default basically, every one of my TC's were always @ 230mbar over req...
this using ECUX, its pretty consistent... as long as i stay under 230 mbar (i even have a sample @ 229), no TC. as soon as i go over (closest sample i have is @232), the NEXT sample shows TC....
