how come with such a big turbo and only 550cc injectors does my car never run lean?
once i even installed a mbc and didnt pay attention to where it was set and almost hit 30 psi and my afr bottomed out rich??????
i see guys say they run 10.5 at full boost with no problems.
and do you know if safc changes timing ( been told that it does)
and if so, does adding fuel advance or retard timing?or is changing the afr what makes the ecu adjust timing?i know this doesnt belong in this thread but when you...
im running a black box right now. but dont wanna waste money on flash equipment when link is my real goal.
is there any tune out there that adjust to a target AFR?
my stock timing changes seem to be right on with what other 2g are running from what ive seen.
should i put the evo3 16g turbo (welded internal wastegate) i have, on it? its brand new. and the manifold i got with it has an external wastegate on it
ive done a boost leak test 2 weeks ago and flared the end of all my fittings. (it was really hard to get back together with the flares)
i wish i had to way to count knock. i dont hear anything. it runs good and smooth.
as soon as i sell my parts car ill have dsmlink. (I WANT IT BAD)
ive learned...
what size is the actual hole in the block? after i remove the fittingi wanna get this right the first time cause taking the manifold and turbo off is a pitaive had it off severl times sense i got the car a few months ago. its less fun every time LOL
toe is split between the two front tires no matter what side is out of spec. bad lower control arm bushings causes a big change in caster, yes it does change the toe, but caster is what makes vehicles pull. fwd vehicles have no factory caster adjustment, but by moving the strut forward and...
No sir. That will cause lots of play in steering wheel. And so will bad inner and outer tie rod ends.
But does not cause it to pull under acceleration.
I do front end alignments for a living,and the only things that cause a car to pull on acceleration are lower control arm bushings and bad motor mount.CV axle will cause a bad vibration
A bad tire or mounted backwards tire will cause "radial pull" but will pull all the time.
93 octane only. I read 2 of the three threads so far. Looking to get a scanner I can read live data with. I need to know the stft and ltft.also would like to know what my timing is doing. Good to know I'm not running lean tho. It does still bog out around 5000rpm when I got 20psi running full rich
Got the wideband AEM on. When I go into boost car goes full rich. Could these injectors have been reworked? How could I be so rich with such (small injectors)
I started playing with my safc while I was driving home on some back roads. Turned all the fuel levels to zero and the car runs better and takes more boost than ever. It's only at higher rpm (5000) it starts cutting out. O2 gauge showes full rich. I'm lead to believe I've been flooding it this...
what size injectors would yall recommend??? my mods are
stock bottom end stock head with arp head studs
gonna run stock exhust manifold
pte 20g turbo wanna run 20psi max (for now until i get dsmlink update)
big fmic
greddy bov
apexi safc
black box ecu from 99 gst
AFPR
walbro 255
greddy boost...
so i just pulled the injectors.... they are rc 550 ... that has to be too small for this big turbo!!!! is that why im cutting out!!! is there any way a 550 can keep up with what im running???
I know I have no boost leaks. Tested it today. Any advice. I have fuel turned up on the safc just to be safe. Still have not got to install the wideband. The exhaust guy at work has been busy. And my car won't make it up on his lift. Too steep. But we are gonna do it on the ground with jacks...
Update!!!
Fixed my boost leak. Bolt missing from turbo only thing holding my waste gate Valve on was a tak weld lol. Pressure was pouring out of that bolt hole.
So new issue. Car boost all the way to 20psi but only in 5 gear. 1gear only takes a couple of pounds and then it cuts out. 2nd takes a...
Good news. Installed the black box and rewired the plug wires. Idles and runs smooth thru the entire rpm range. I'm now running negative settings on my safc like it should be.
Bad news the exhaust leak is worse now that I put the tubular manifold back on. And I notice the turbo is still hitting...
