knock / boost values

Post by chadr »

When i enter values such as 1, 2, and 5 for ignition retard, max retard, etc. the values are converted to .35 1.7 and other odd numbers.

I'm using winxp and msns w/ high res code.

Thanks.

This is normal. MegaTunix allows FULL resolution of the values, megatune truncates them. the resolution of most angle related controls is 0.352 degrees. +/- or q/w will allow you to move them by their normal increments, as if you type in value it will try and pick the closest (and it sometimes does a weird job).
