"Driving Force" appears to = Load and "Flow Potential" is either VE or MAF counts (or a calculated perecentage based on both).

Load is based on RPM, VE, and g/sec of metered air, so that's probably about right.

WSTAR : " Yeah the table still doesn't make intuitive sense to me though. The tuner I used (as in, the dyno-tuning professional) seemed to know what he was doing and set all "3800" values in the last few columns though, and that seems to correspond to WOT at full pedal. "

It's clear from experimenting that this table does affect how the throttle reacts to pedal input, but both of the non-obvious labels seem like secondary effects. The position of the throttle butterfly will determine airflow, and that combined with RPM is pretty much going to define load or driving force or whatever. It just seems like one of these axes must be mislabeled for this to be a throttle table.


I wish wstar can chime in here... My AWGD8 # 3 MAP is at 4300 MAX. It might fully open pass the 3800, but not sure. All I know is there is a certain max at a certain flow potential %. As I mentioned on my MAP #3 . I lost a little bit of seat of pants pull when I reached the 50% flow potential as you can see on your MAP curve. ( the highest point @50% ) Those number weren't even close to 3800, but I did feel a strong pull from the middle of midrange to top end and those are around 3600-4300....

BTW, I just happened to noticed while looking at the curve Graph you posted, that my AWGD# blend 2/3 MAP looks a bit the same curve with the stock G37 MAP. It just happened that the Blend MAP power comes in earlier with a less throttle/pedal push....No wonder why I like it BEST!
