Couple of wishes

I'm always looking to tune the part throttle cruising area for maximum efficiency which usually means running a little leaner than 14.7:1 AFR.
One good (simple?) addition to Kpro would be the ability to have more control over when the car runs in open and closed loop. Right now, you can enter a certain MAP where the ECU runs closed below that pressure and open above it. It would be great if RPM and possibly cam angle could all be used to specify when the car is in open loop and when it is in closed loop.
Likewise, I have noticed that when a Nitrous control is activated in closed loop, it seems like the ECU gets into a 'fight' with itself alternately trying to meet the conditions of the Nitrous control (richer or leaner fuel) then snapping back to 14.7:1 under the closed loop parameters. Maybe in addition to or (instead of) the suggestion above, a check box could be included in the Nitrous control, something to the effect of "Force open loop when Nitrous control is active"
Just a couple of thoughts, keep up the good work.
