Had a fight with the tuning gremlins..
They won...
The car responded very well on the street..
Heard some minor pinging at higher rpms..
On the dyno the car pinged like a **** and lost power..
the AF's moved from 13.9 - almost 15.
This manifold definetly needs some kind of tuning with it..
Im not 100% sure what kind of tuning devices are out there but we would like to dyno a car with some kind of tuning device on it..
When the car ping it means needs more fuel, and with that in mind.. The car backs out ignition timing so the engine doesnt detonate.
We feel that this manifold is a great design, but needs to have some kind of tuning device to pair with it.. Also throttle body is not 100% exact but short rams and CAI will fit with a little playing with posistion.
We have seen the same problems with other cars.. Without fuel tuning the car doesnt like all the additional air.. So it pings and backs out the timing, which takes away power.. Its a safety feature on all cars..
Anyone in the bay area with a TC with Emanage installed?
