Lee it is worth the $100.00 to get a new flowsheet for the exact maf that you are using because if you do not have it you may have to dial in the whole curve from bottom to top. Which can be very time consuming. I had to do the same thing on my 4" Univer, it is worth it in the long run. The reason that I say this is because of the resolution that you have at the lower parts/points of the curve. These points become very critical when you go to 60lb and larger injectors. This is even more of an issue on a street car and at idle. Send a pm to Chris M. on the eectuning.org site and he can tell you first hand about the rich idle issues etc. with 60lb/hr injectors and the bigger maf's...

Or you can do like I did when I first installed my univer before I had it calibrated. Use the stock maf curve as a starting point and dial it in point by point.....

If you have the older maf that you took off you can do as Clint suggested and install it until the univer gets back usually takes a couple of weeks. That way you can tinker with the injector battery offsets etc.

Or you can have Bob (boss96) drive up from Florida to help out as I hear that the water is getting deep down there about now......

Thanks, Dale

Actually, we were quite blessed, not much rain/flooding, pretty fast winds but it only took out my cheap Pep boys canopy which I may be able to put back together. We had no electricity though from around 7pm until 6am but at least it was not very hot. Had some fun trying to cook a steak on the gas grille, everytime I tried to light it flame would go out.
I think further south, like Miami, got the worst flooding.
Anyway, yeah, sure, send the car down here, should be fun to tune

Bob,

Glad everything is ok there was kind of worried about you when I saw some of the news this morning. By the way those Pep Boys canopies are wonderful !!!

Have you taken a look at EFI Punks website lately to see if he fixed the A9L tuning stuff? I tried to but for some reason I can not get to his site this week.
