I have been playing with this alot more lately and I like it. Basically yoru combination of Injection Multiplier and Injection Latency determine your fuel trim and ofcourse you need to have a good working NBO2 sensor.
This really seems to help getting good throttle tip-in when you get your fuel trim to "128".
im a nissan tech. That diagram is given 2 all techs on a magnet u put on ur tool box after u finish obd2 class. And r obd2 certifide. It's sole porpus is long term short term fuel trim and keeping the cat happy, but it's not gonna give you power.
It helps find drivability problems: bad airflow meter, fuel pump, intake air leaks, bad injector.

and incorrect Latency and Multiplier settings, I notice the car just drives alot better in closed loop with more "perfect" fuel trims, but it is ignored in open loop. I find it helps with gas milage also. I guess it could also help you diagnoise individual injectors problems to.
You will notice I've renamed AF Alpha / AF Alpha Learn in the latest versions to short term and long term trims and added this to the consult panel. I've also added these gauges to some earlier model vehicles like RB30ET and CA18DET
Basically from that document, adjust your K such that STFT is close to 100% and reset your LTFT (using the Active Test - Clear self learn feature) before making adjustments
I'm putting some info together on the VE map side of things also in updated documentation since this is dependent on the Add Fuel (Alpha/N) TPS table

I tend to just set the low load values in the fuel table to "0", turn O2 sensing off and adjust K until AFR's are around stoichiometric.

I was always doing K like Pete teach us in early documentation, so is STFT just method for "fine" tuning of K or should we continue to use old method and just use latency to get STFT to near 100% ?
Yes, I tend to still set K the same way and then monitor the fuel trims throughout the tune, tweaking the latency to give good idle mixtures and try to get fuel trims neutral.
Should be easier now that Matt has put L/STFT on the gauges panel. So we can keep an eye on them throughout the tune.
What we're trying to avoid is having the fuel trims affect the tune once it's complete.
