I know that Marc uses an engine dyno for motors being shipped overseas as an example. EASE is good. Not available any longer as a personal copy as I understand it. I got mine 10 years ago. One issue with EASE is that it only records rpm to 6300. So I needed a mod to the ALDL datastream to get actual rpm in the log. For > 6000rpm work, the datastream is still a bit slow so I mostly rely on the WB
log at 35frames/sec. As long as you can get MAP, TPS, AFR, RPM WOT can be tuned.
Excellent, thanks for your input. I agree with you when you say that road work is still needed, no matter how much dyno time is needed.
I wasnt trying to re-educate you, as I know zero about OBD 1 tuning.
Thanks for your insight.

peace
