You have to log 3rd or 4th gear to Accessport. The log should be done on a flat straight road from 2500 to 6500 rpm. Once you log you download the data from your Accessport to Excel as a csv file. Delete all rows except your 3rd or 4th gear pull so it is good data and save the file. You can then upload it to the Virtual Dyno software. http://www.virtualdyno.net/

It is also very important that you have your car weight correct and you also need to input the size of your tires.

If you do a log in 4th gear it will be lower.

My 3rd gear logs were 600

Also you need to set smoothing to 3 not 1

(this was just with JB4 no custom tune yet. Still trying to decide who to go with.)
