Alright guys I have had EFI Live for two months now and still do not know how to log. I am mainly wanting to log rail pressure, among other things and was just wondering if someone could guide me through the process on my lbz. Thankyou

:yup: except you are a lbz... you will need to select duramax lbz PID file
that pid file should get you going
if you want other pids just select them and save as a new file
and sometimes it helps to validate pids

I tried it this morning and all seemed to work fine. I ran the mcrat race tune out to almost 120mph from 60 and it was still showing 25-26k rail pressure. Wasn't really expecting that lol but its good.
ya, first time i logged a lbz with the McRat tune i was shocked to see the rail holding so well
stupid lbzgood to here you have it somewhat figured out
