@@satchmo-k24 Gotta say, this was the best showcase of Ktuner I've seen. I didn't understand half of the stuff. I just keep searching trying to figure things out. Thanks man. Keep up the teaching. 🤘🤝
Thanks so much for this video, Ktuner support are a bunch of snarky a**holes that just tell you to go to a professional tuner and waste your money. So in my 2.4l (k24z3) 8th gen Accord Coupe, Ive got the eFlexFuel kit and made the easy conversion to flex and it handles the tuning for the ethanol content but to go full e85 I need bigger injectors. So right now I’ve picked up a set of 450cc injectors from CleanInjection which should be big enough compared to my stock 310cc injectors but I’m having some trouble navigating the Ktuner software and finding what I need to adjust. In my Closed Loop Settings I finally found the fuel trim setting that has STFT min and max, and LTFT min and max like you showed on here. Not sure which I’m supposed to use for reference for adjustments to the cylinder fuel trim. And then when it comes to the MAF scaling (which you don’t seem to have on yours) I have the long horizontal chart of AFM Flow with voltages to g/s whatever that is and then the AFM Fuel with mg/stk to ms on its tables. This last one seems like that I need but I’ve no idea how to approach adjusting it. I’m just looking to safely up the injector size but I really don’t know what I should be trimming fuel from and by how much. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated 🙏
@macsethed123 Here’s an update, I went the way of trimming off cylinder fuel trim by -40% because my new injectors are about 45% larger and then they came with a flow chart and specific injector dead times so I adjusted the dead times as well, but after starting it up, the open throttle of revving it was fine but right when I let off the throttle and it starts to go down in rpm, it feels like it hiccups and then after it gets under 2000rpm it shutters and bunch like it’s going to die and then it eventually finds an idle again, nd that happens every time I hit the gas. Not sure what I’m the lower load/rpm range that’s causing it to almost die out but it’s not viable to drive. I reflashed to base tune and started it to see the stft results and it was trimming only about 30% off the larger injectors but still had the decel issue so I swapped back to my stock injectors and now it seems to drive relatively like it did before. Just need more tuning advice and knowledge to figure out what’s wrong and how to compensate for it 😵💫
This was probably the most useful/ helpful video for k tuneing. Thank you for all the help. I have learned so much from you. And I know I tried using k Tuner help, and it never helped

I have a question I have an a civic that’s running lean because of my short ram intake do you have a tutorial on how to bring the fuel up to even it out?
what about if you had a 3inch catback exhaust? what should i adjust so that the tune can account for the extra air going out+ my SRI intake bringing different air in? this is the only thing that’s holding me back from doing it myself, this video gave me confidence thanks 🙏
@IGstaticseba I would look @ other variables, usually a exhaust & intake pipe won't cause a drastic change maybe effect fuel trims by 1-2%. Nothing the ecu can't adjust for automatically. Maybe something in the fuel system, are you using a ktuner base map or has it been tunned?

@hei8574 that's a weird one bro, the cold temp vtec engagement is the clue you need to follow. That's what I would research. Vtec isn't supposed to kick in until operating temp is reached as we all know!
Greath explanation, just one quick question. After your done modifying your tune how do you save it? In case u wanna try a different tune or modification and end up not liking it and want to go back to a previous tune . Thanks
How are you my name is calvin, do you still answer questions I’m having a idling issue when I start the car it idles really low and then eventually come up to 950-1000 rpm when I turn ac on it drops to about 400 rpm do you have any suggestions
You can either Add more Rpm too the "idle post start idle target" . Ktuner also has a "AC ignition timing feature you can add or Retard timing from for AC idle & driving compensation. More timing = higher Rpm, less timing = lower rpm at idle

Hello. My vehicle is civic 1.5 t 10th. I downloaded 21 starter maps, but the region I live in is 980 meters above sea level. That's why it doesn't go above 19 psi. What can I do about this?
So my VTEC lower engage is 5000 and disengage is 4800 if I want to change it to where it engages at 4000 is that safe and does that mean the Disengage should be 3800 and would I need to change anything else?
Hey cuz I changed mine to 4100 high engage and 5100 low engage. The high number is Wot and the low is part throttle. I set the disengage at 200rpm lower than each value. This is for my 2012 si that has same motor and ecu as u
idk if its just me but i have a 08 si and v2 ktuner have an intake on it and throws a lean code. im trying to change the fuel map but it doesnt give me a fuel map option at all. wondering how do you get that? cause when i used hondata on my old civic it gave me an option for that. ktuner has yet to help either
Wanted to ask you I had someone set my tune up and I noticed he disabled my secondary sensor but I have a cat and secondary sensor will this affect the way my car runs? Can I uncheck or will it need retuned? Thanks 🙏🏽
You don't really need secondary O2, especially if you live in a non emissions regulatory state. The upstream wideband is all you need for proper tuning.
@@satchmo-k24 so will car run okay as I have a cat and the sensor still in place? But have it checked in tune to disable! If that makes sense. Thanks for replying
