    great content for s38 fans. i've had similar troubles with the digi-sync and use an old carb-tune tool as well. You're balancing the idle air bypass screws here, so if you open the throttle (to raise the idle speed) they're going to have very little effect. As these cars age, and the throttle shafts wear (and you get some air leaks) the idle bypass adjustment is going to do very little. I watched a friend / s38 guru adjust these by ear, close them all, open 1.5 turns and adjust 1 by 1 for best idle and initial throttle response to a throttle blip. Car never ran better after that.

    For synchronising carbs I use a wideband lambda with an Ecumaster DET3. (€340 together)
    In log mode, if you zoom in (time scale), you can see every single combustion stroke per cylinder and adjust the itb's accordenly.
    On de dyno the tuner was amazed when he hooked op the carbs synchroniser how accurate it was.

The Heal-Tech eSync tool has always looked interesting but I've never tried it.

    As far as syncing the TB's- I'd put some small orifices in those vacuum lines to dampen the signal . They're usually called "pills". I remember years ago places selling them but all I can find right now is OEM Subaru ones. They are also pretty simple to make with a tiny lathe.

    Not many cars have chain tensioners outside the timing cover. If anything that makes this car easier to work on than most. And the fact thay he had so much access to that bolt means it was built with replacement in mind. Unlike some cases which would require removing the front end to remove it.
