Now that I open the SCT log in Excel.. I bet if you matched the column names to the correct parameter names in whatever tuning software you were using, they would open.

For example: O2 Sensor Voltage Bank 1 -> Bank 1 O2 Sens Volts

::EDIT::

It doesn't work. Nevermind.

Kinda off topic

I was looking at my shift points the other day and they are set around 6200-6400 but my tq starts falling off around 5500. Any reason why they would be set this high if the tq falls of that early.

Because your horsepower keeps going. 5500+ is baby-makin music!

Also it might be they are revving the previous gear to make sure they land in the powerband on the next. I have driven nothing but manuals for all my life. My shift points are wherever i want them

Think of it this way. Torque is instantaneous power. Horsepower is torque over time. It might drop in torque, but there are more instances at higher rpm, and that adds up over time.

JEFF75645 · 07-02-2013, 11:30 PM

Cool. Thanks. I guess I need to do that heads/cam project to bump up the hp/tq/compression.

There is also a video plugin that i have been meaning to try. It's supposed to let you shoot video with your phone and overlay gauges.

thahemp · 07-03-2013, 10:11 AM

Quick video to test the track recorder plugin. There are some hoops to jump through to get the video off of your phone with the gauges overlaid. It wasn't too bad. Follow the directions INCLUDING the reboot.

After that enable wifi sync in Torque Pro and your phone doesn't even have to be connected to the computer to encode your videos.

Cool video. Gonna have to check out that add on. Do you leave your Bluetooth obd in all the time or do you pull it out afterwards.

thahemp · 07-03-2013, 06:39 PM

I always pull it back out.

JEFF75645 · 07-05-2013, 06:54 PM

I ran my first log and now I can't find it.

thahemp · 07-05-2013, 07:50 PM

It's in your phone's root directory under torquelogs.

JEFF75645 · 07-05-2013, 08:55 PM

Found it. My phone won't open them up so I will try to open them on my laptop or tablet.

thahemp · 07-05-2013, 09:15 PM

Yeah, you have to use excel or similar.
