newbie to tunning

Post by 88 mustang gt »

Ok, First off I am a automotive and diesel tech. But this is way beyond what I deal with. Although I work with a laptop I have set parameters and have to find problems that are causing it to go outside of those Parameters. I also have not used most of the terminology used in tuning. I figured I would have a little trouble but I'm not doing so well here any help would be greatly appreciated. I live in CT. and I am using an MS3. Thank you in advance. :msq:

To get a copy of the MSQ (tune) file, connect to the ECU with TunerStudio and go to File -> Save Tune As. To get a data log, go to the Data Logging menu and click Start Logging. You will be prompted for a file name. The log starts when you save the file (this is an easy one to get tripped up on as a lot of people expect saving the file to be what you do at the end of the log). Once you have recorded what you need, go to the Data Logging Menu and click Stop.
