I also added steering angle limiters to keep the wheels from rubbing on the fender liners are full lock.

what did you install to limit the steering?

Welded on some 3/8" rod to the bracket that connects to the LCA and bumps into the spindle at full lock.

I did the same thing but with a bolt and two nuts. I have that patented so you owe me some $$$$$.....

Mike, my buddy with the ZR1 has recently switched to speed density for similar problems. It had a light throttle buck that no one could tune out with it being MAF.

I don't want to hear about your little nuts and bolt.

Is there a way to log the output on the MAF?

Is there a way to log the output on the MAF?

Yes, and I do. Frequency (Hz), g/cyl, g/sec, calculated dynamic air, etc.

That is why I was saying something is wonky - because comparing datalogs a month apart showed an obvious change in Mass Air Flow.

The car runs as well as it ever has even with this issue. It just goes lean. I actually converted it to a MAF/SD OS to improve the driveability last year. I will try setting it back to SD-only to see if it improves any.

Oh, and the cold front we just had move - well it had no effect on the situation.
