I played with RPM Deadband at Idle and went from +/- 50 to +/- 25. Seemed to like that also. Quiets the SM flywheel a bit more. Overall Left BLMs are higher than Right but that difference becomes minimal at cruise. Its exaggerated more at idle and when Coolant Temps go up.
But Overall Left Avg. BLM is 132, Right Avg. 125. Close enough, IMO.
Motor is quiet at cruise with a lope at idle. All you hear is the exhaust note and its a mellow purr. Not harsh or loud. No drone in the cabin even at 1600rpm or so. Tuning is soooo much easier using the Ostrich and =Jeff='s VeTuner. You can have a new set of VE tables calc'd in about 3 min and then ready to download.
Next is installing the WB O2.
Like a moth to a flame. Fascinating.

Maybe you should do a demonstration/presentation at BG next spring, Dom! Think about it...
