Default For those who do mapping or know how to map.

What do you look at in order to create a decent map? I.e. what are your parameters? AFR, lambda, EGT etc? I haven't a clue and would like to know what you look at when you map a car. For an N/A engine in this case.

Thanks.

Instead of me writing a quick 200 words on here, I feel my quite comprehensive four part mapping series may help you to understand more.

Part 1.

Part 2.

Part 3.

Part 4.

All can be downloaded and distributed for free.

Thanks Stu and Chip. Can't believe I forgot about your mapping guides Stu! Normally I dive into those when I want to learn about things and surprised I never thought of them this time round.
