Basic Logging Items
When performing data logging with your tuning device, there are several key parameters that you should monitor to gain valuable insights into your vehicle's performance. Below is a list of basic logging items that are crucial for effective data analysis:
RPM
- Revolutions per minute of the engine.Boost pressure
- The pressure of air supplied to the engine by the turbocharger.Throttle position
- The position of the throttle valve in the engine.AFR or lambda
- Air-Fuel Ratio or lambda value indicating the mixture of air to fuel in the combustion chamber.Ignition advance
- The timing of the spark plug firing, measured in degrees before top dead center.STFT
- Short Term Fuel Trim, which adjusts the fuel mixture in real-time.
Monitoring these basic items will provide a comprehensive overview of your vehicle's operational dynamics, which is essential for effective tuning and performance optimization.
