With a haltech, i don't know if you have played with yours but you can adjust one torque curve for a particular rev range, copy all those settings from that rev rang and then apply it to all the other rev ranges, then it is jus a matter of fine tuning it for each rev range. The only thing that would be different on yours would be the turbo. so at a particular rev range when the turbo kicks in, the fuel would have to be increased substantially...maybe that is why it will take longer than what i would have expected [Report message to a moderator]
