Steve not sure if you're aware but LogTuner is no longer available or applicable to the PV2- sure, you can download LogTuner from FM website but it won't load the PV2 logs or pvv export- there is the "file fixer" exe from one of our members here that will fix the PV2 logs and pvv export so it will actually load in LogTuner, but, it will not do any differential or suggestion calculations. e.g. it is worthless to anyone with a PV2.
That is unfortunate as I think LogTuner would still be a valuable tuning tool- But DJ does not really seem to offer much help or care at all with anything PV2-related. Seems like their sole any only focus now is on the Dynojet equipment stuff. Maybe FM will do something to get it to actually work again. Would require some simple code changes to the application that's about it.

Geezum, that's a bummer. Thanks for giving me the heads up on that. I didn't realize everything changed that much with PV2.

AFAIK the PV-1 PV-2 are the same, Only difference is the cable for Rushmore Can-Bus wiring. Of course, Rushmore Spark Knock Detection/Retard/Data is different and may not be of any use in Log Tuner. I never used the app/program someone wrote to edit .pvv files, Just edit them in Notepad and LT works fine.

The next best alternative would appear to be MegaLogViewer HD from EFI Analytics. it does load the PV2 log files just fine and you can set up multiple graphing display options, play back the log in a visual format, etc. for example I can have the graph display RPM vs MAP vs Spark Knock R and it will show me exactly where the events occur. there is apparently a way to use the scatter plot function to see lean areas but I'm still messing with it. FWIW

Yep i tried both methods with editing the pvv files - they will load in LT ok but it still will not give the suggested calculations. it may have something to do with the names of the logged signals being different in PV2 vs PV1. I do know the table names changed in PV2 which is why the "fix" is needed on the pvv files to get them to load in LT.

I have same issue with my 14 Limited and turned it in to Dyna Jet about a year ago. I never did hear back from them. I did read somewhere they weren't pursuing a fix for it. I use my trip A and just reset it when I want to see what mileage I am getting at certain speed.

Yes- verified all of the channels are set up correctly, and reviewed the channel log data in excel. does yours actually give you calculations on the lower part of log tuner? mine are always zeros.

I just installed a PV on my 07 RK. You have been a little braver than me changing data... I have only run the auto tune 3 times on the custom tune from fuel moto. Already seen a huge difference in performance. Pulls hard through the low end and steady through the gears. Love it so far. Haven't checked the milage yet, not much different.
