The reason I need it is that electromotive uses volumetric efficiency as a tuning table. I did not think I would need it either, but now that I think of it, it makes sense. The electromotive software does not use an MAF, and calculates mass air flow rate by knowing the pressure, temperature, and rpm of the motor. In order to convert from rpm to mass air flow rate, volumetric efficiency will be an important part of the equation. Although the efficiency may be from the plenum where I take my air pressure reading to the cylinder instead of the entire motor.

Thanks for your input

Then it utilizes a map sensor, which will calculate load, and let you to apply a set knock AFR for that load. IT does utilize speed density right?
