 I added the load code from my last post, but have not tested yet... I'll probably do that tomorrow... Then I'll do the filtering code, and clean up a lot of the messes that are still in the code.

James and I spent the last month mainly doing bug fixes.

I also branched the code so that I could work on making a stable version to turn into MS2/extra v1.0, while James continues ripping apart code and rewriting it for v2.0.

I had my first tester other than myself try out my EAE code, and he said he got it working in a few minutes as well as his previous MAPdot accel setup that took him weeks to get to a usable state. In other words, I think we might finally have an Accel Enrichment algorithm that "just works."

I'll be testing the new load code in the ae86 as soon as I get it bench-tested, I'm thinking that once I get it working well, it'll make the ITB setup a lot more tunable... meaning I think I'll be able to get the benefits of Speed Density (good fuel economy, good low-load behavior) and Alpha-N (good throttle response, better tunability above 20% throttle position) at the same time.

That should be good for people with turbos AND really lumpy cams... they'll be able to run alpha-n but use the secondary table to cover conditions under boost..

similarly, I could run alpha-n as my primary load on the ITBs, but have a second that modifies the first depending on vacuum, OR run Speed Density as my primary, and then when that maxes out around 20% throttle, or around 90kPa, just have the secondary table more or less take over. I'm going to try both and see which one works the best.

I should probably make the EAE load point changeable too... right now it's tied to the primary fuel point... which might not be desirable.

Anyway, enough babbling...
