Pre IVA Shakedown

I've pretty much finished my build!!!!! Just some IVA "trim" to add and off we go. I'll add some pics after the weekend for comments.
I'm running a 2.0L Zetec with R6 TB Injection and Megasquirt. Car starts, idles and drives quite well (up and down my road that is) although lambda says it's running rich.
I've got access to a disused airfield on Friday for a final shakedown, set up brakes and some tweaking.
I've got the full version of Tuner Studio, any recommendations on using Live Tuning & VE Analyze Live?
Any other pearls of wisdom would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Matt

So jealous, I want to bring mine and do the same. I did get the speedo calibrated over the weekend though.

Make sure your AE is set too 100% when autotuning etc otherwise it doesn't work that great try and hold it at each load and revs for a few seconds. Set the cell change to easy so it should change quickly but not the most accurate. Then when it close it best to do some logging and use VE analyse but make sure your afr target table is filled in for both methods otherwise it won't work.

I'd love to help but it's through a friend of a friend that I've managed to blag it. It's been rather frantic organising it and has lots of stipulations so it won't be possible.

Hello Matt,

Just seen Harvey's U2u and this thread - No worries regarding access, but yes i have been looking for somewhere near to set the speedo and bed the breaks in. If you do ever get wind of an opportunity in the future then i would appreciate it if you could let us know

Cheers
Tris
