OFT v4.03 Tune Question (Going to Dyno)

As i'm aware, the v4 tune starts the IAM at .7 and over time, it will supposedly work it's way up to 1 if you are using premium fuel.

Question: If i am going to the dyno, when they start the car and do the pulls, it will be at .7, without a doubt, as i've noticed it takes a little bit of street driving before it starts working it's way up. Will this mean non-optimal performance while doing the dyno pulls with it being at .7 ?

Or does it really not make that much of a difference?

Follow up question. If i know i'm going to use 93 octane, would it make more sense to download the 93 octane tune from the master list on the OFT website and run that instead of the new v4 tune that was meant to be a one-size fits all?

If you feel like the 93 is knock free on that map change the IAM to 1.0 Problem solved.

Excellent point!

Now I just gotta uninstall my 64bit Java and install 32bit Java in my windows box so that I can use RomRaider....

... Unless someone knows a better way around that issue?

RomRaider runs fine despite the alert message on 64 bit on my machine(s). At least if you can do without 3D visualization of the tables.

Problem is i can't get it to install. I imagine i need to back the java down to 32bit, run the installer.. and then perhaps i can go back to 64bit and run it as you suggest.

I had to do the same thing. Installing the 32bit fixed all my problems.
