I would like to know what the MS *thinks* its doing. Is there some way to display the boost solenoid duty cycle on the screen in MegaTune?

Right now I'm not outputting that variable to megatune.

You can add a line that sets outpc.istatus5 = boost_ctl_duty, and then check istatus5 if you need that data.

I'll see about adding it to the next RC.

Awesome, I'll see how the boost control actually runs, but my guess is there is someone this will help with tuning.

The other one that seems really, really helpful is recording if sync was dropped - or tooth counts for cam and crank (so a person can check the ratios), something like that. With those in place, it would seem a lot easier to get a not-yet-understood system into the MS-flock.

Thanks!
