Default Tuning Question

Ok. I finally bought a cable so that I can tune my 95 Corvette. I recently had it dyno tuned and downloaded the bin file to my computer. I have been comparing it to a stock bin file and cannot find differences in the VE tables, AFR tables. The only change I see is to the idle tables.... What am I missing here. I thought in order to tune these things you make changes to the VE tables? How else would you make changes to tune these cars?

But with a new cam shaft I would expect more than just spark timing to change. I'll take a look.

Ok, I checked the closed loop AFR tables and the only change made were to slightly lean out the cold start AFR. The advanced spark settings were retarded at wide open throttle between 5000 to 6000 rpm, they were retarded from 35 to 31. So Im confused how pushing more air through this engine does not change anything other than max timing advance and AFR at cold start. No other parameters that I can see have been changed.

If it's running in MAF mode, the VE tables aren't used. If your using Tunerpro, there's a very useful compare feature, that will list all differences.
