Thanks,

between .5 and 1v at idle, 4.5-5volts at full throttle

81 seems reasonable for high trim, but not for all trims. The ECU reads both 02 sensors, hence the two 02 sensors.

My mainscale is at -60.5 which lets me basically not touch the low load tune, cruise(on flat ground) at 14.7-15.1:1, and casually accel at 13.2-13.6:1. But there is a point when casually acceling that if you press the throttle past it, the car says no and I will see like 11.5 afrs
Are the mid loads coming into play while going up hill? Does map enrichment effect anything besides tip in?
Should I be messing with the VE table? Should VE table #2 be working for me?(td05 headers, 16gs, o2 housings, downpipe, 3 inch all the way back)
I'm using 4.85 or something, I'm going to try 5.03 when I have time.
This is not like a SAFC. Use the VE table.
It sounds like your tune is really fucked up and you probably want to start over. You can't just use old VE tables when you mod your car. You especially can't use other people's tables. You need to tune and make your own VE table. Use someone else's to get your car running, and begin tuning immediately. That should take care of some of your issues. Also, I'm not sure what your doing by running without 02 sensors. I'm not familiar with that strategy.
BTW: My mainscale is about -60 and my car is in the low load part of the VE table all the time while cruising.

my car is in low load while cruising, but most of my low load adjustments are at 0%, one or two points are at +-1%
disconnecting the o2 sensors means your hi/mid/low trims won't change, I.E. mine are all at 100 atm. And I'm 90% sure that one o2 sensor is just for datalogging and troubleshooting, and the other is what the ecu sees, if you think about it the ecu would have to do twice as much calculating with 2 inputs (while they are reading almost exactly the same reading which makes that counter productive), so it makes sense. Plus I've read it here on the boards.
I remember bob saying that VE tables should be left alone unless you know what you're doing. But that gives me some confidence in this f/c now...I think I could def perfect my tune in the next few days, only thing is its a bummer I need the laptop to mess with it. I especially like the new engine braking (?right?) variable in 5.03.
