I cannot confirm or deny it being correct, but does anyone know why
they pick certain values for the min and max integrators, and for that
matter min and max values for the block learns?  Is it just to keep
things within where GM expects a stock vehicle to operate, and if so,
on modified vehicles that need things a bit wider, is there any reason
not to enlarge the range to allow things to work better?  I have
noticed my car maxing out on leaning out things.  I have had the
integrator at 0 and the block learns at 108 (108 seems to be the min),
first I am going to check to see if it looks like it is staying about
in the center or not.  I may just have to lean things out some more in
part throttle tables to make it control things better.
