EVOIII 16G Slow Spool

[kiddsm95]

Today I installed a MHI E316G on my 2g Eclipse with stock fuel system boosting 15 psi. Prior to the install, my T-25 was fully spooled by 3k and my A/F ratio gauge always read stoick (aka yellow). Once the E316G was installed the highest reading off the A/F gauge was very lean (first red bar) and doesn't exceed red. Now the E316G doesn't hit full boost until after 4k, and the car just doesn't pull the way it used to.

Searching around the forums makes me want to think that the wastegate actuator is not fully closing, therefore it needs to be shimmed. Has anyone with a E316G had to shim the WGA? Would having an open WGA cause the A/R to read lean?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

So I've officially got about 4 hours of tuning under my belt now. I had to lean out the a/f ratio by 10% across the band. Even with the crap tune I've got on it, the car definately pulls harder now! I'd like to officially close this thread, so I'll start a new thread showing my OBD Gauge logs once I figure out how to pull the logs over to my PC.

Thanks.
