Hi,

I am presuming that you are meaning the Engine Efficiency table? Are you saying that the engine runs differently with the laptop connected versus not? Can you provide some logging showing this occurring please. Standard level 1 logging with all of the diagnostic channels logged will suffice.

Hi,

Do you have any sensors connected to the M1 yet? What sort of range of fluttering are you seeing? 1~2 kPa, or 50+ kPa?

Sounds like you had the LTC ground connected to the 0V sensor pin on the ECU.

This will cause the problem because the 0V sensor pin on any ECU is not designed to handle the current when the LTC turns the lambda sensor heater on.

Basically you didn't follow the wiring diagram for the LTC!
