    @Vlady A long time ago I asked a similar question. The answer from OV was that the axis values after the first 100 are not used.

    So you can modify your axis values to only have the last cell be 100 if you want to increase the resolution of your table.

    Once you key lock it once, it's locked to you.
    You'll have to remake the file

    Buy the hardware. It will be sent to you ..... BE PATIENT. It may take some days ...... I'm assuming you don't know you ECU ID.
    You'll need the hardware to ID your ECU.

    Have you seen this ? --> https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0885/5830/files/vForest_Tuner_Instructions.pdf?v=1592182954

    You can download vForest Software for free and get started with the registration. In the mean time watch / read forum and instructions.

    It can be frustrating ..... if you're in a hurry.

    Post you location / region if you're wanting someone to "tune" you...... but, it's not hard to do yourself.

    It was probably flagged by your a/v program. Go in and look for warnings. If there are any for vF, hit the Allow button. You might also need to reinstall after Allowing.

    It's nothing on your part. Its the VF table that labels it as accelerator but I have reason to believe its actually throttle, not accelerator. Just something to think about because as we all know accelerator input vs throttle % can vary greatly depending on how the limit tables/air tables/etc have been configured.

    It depends. Are there new warnings in your a/v program right now?
