I had to manually force the throttle plate closed while doing the auto-tune function to achieve full range.
I'm retaining the IAC for that exact reason, actually. One of today's goals is to get the rest of the sensors wired and verify operation of the IAC solenoid.

I think I'll be playing with the overshoot and hysteresis on the AEM DBW loop as well, given the really strong throttle return spring I'm seeing the throttle plates overshoot to ~100% open and then settle at ~95% open.

I still find the 10kHz PWM extremely irritating, unfortunately.
