looks good, it's just dipping in/out of lean cruise when you put the foot down a little more, 15.4:1 is usual commanded lean cruise

cool, well it was very responsive for over taking and going up the hills.
the only thing i did notice was the low speed fan was on a lot so it maybe time to check the thermostat

well I thought I'd give an update after my weekend away, I filled up on bp ultimate as I headed of for the weekend and I travelled 260 k's on the first 1/4 of the tank
I did approx 30 mins of data logging on highway cruising with over taking,

I have also noticed that by replacing the O2 sensors that we found to be faulty thanks to data logging it has fixed the problem completely of the few seconds of rough idle at the first start up of the day.

I have sent Nigel data from the highway criuse and some driving around town and he has just fine tuned my tune and posted it to me. I expect to see that in the next few days, I honestly can not see how he could possibly improve any further on what he has already done but I will not be surprised as he got the car running better than I ever thought was possible.

To have the power and throttle response and fuel economy that I have is amazing,

If anyone out there is thinking about getting a tune from Nigel I can 110% say just do it and get it with the VT injectors, your wallet will thank you for it very quickly.

Haha. Yeah well I guess the data loging will show how much I actually use hey.

It's been a great experience learning more about my car.

Thanks heaps for taking the time to answer questions for me.

hey guy's, I've been looking through XDF files from the factory tune and from my tune as I want to try and learn a bit about how it works

I noticed on the stock version of XDF file for my VS 97 that they push the limits on the Lean cruise, they put the AFR (air fuel ratio) from between 16.2 to 17.37, that's gotta be pushing the limits of doing damage,

My tune from the1 has 15.4 AFR which sounds much safer
