Shout out to Ken White for a mention In episode 41. Jason, did you go to the dynocom event with Ken. They mentioned six turbo Buick guys were there. I'm hoping it isn't too expensive as id like to go to the next one.

Yes I went but wasn't very impressed. Even stopped listening to the podcasts for a while. I wouldn't recommend going to a one of his basic tuning classes at all. Maybe the advanced tuning class. To be honest, I got more from the sloppy mechanic guy's tuning classes on youtube. https://youtu.be/nFE-imv65qo

Thanks for the heads up on these sloppy guy vids. I will surely take a look and see what it can learn.

A little how to on the tuner studio software

I listen to the podcasts at work. Getting some nifty stuff out of them but they do ramble on with some stuff. I like the idea to log the coolant pressure and the ampere load on the fuel pump. I found a sensor for the ampere but not sure it will work. Gotta get out the logger instructions and see what can be used.

output -2 to +2 , but since that is  AC capable in DC I presume 0-2volt for full scale. I like the single supply requirement, Have used other LEM modules that needed more support.

I’ll echo sloppy mechanics.

If I’m bored I’ll listen to power and speed.
