yeah i'm not getting an intercooler until spring and i am aware that i will lose my fog lights.

its running good i llove it a lot and made a big difference and the response is superb.

and yes i am running stock internals, my estimate whp should be around 220-230 @ 6 psi.

I got to come check it out in person since your local!

Matt_Burgess

Is it tuned?

BlackSandPtC

Ha Scott you're more than welcome to check it out!

And yes, it'll be tuned along with the dyno Wednesday. Right now, Performance Autowerks has it until then.

Matt_Burgess

What type of tuning software are you going to use?

nebster

dyno sheet?

BlackSandPtC

sorry you guys it hasn't hit the dyno yet, i'm kind of lean right now so they didn't want to run it, so technically i'm not tuned right now. its sitting in my garage and i'm not planning on driving it for a couple of months until the weather starts getting nicer. i need to get bigger fuel injectors and emanage and i'll keep you guys posted. sorry you guys. oh and i did not forget about closer pics on the manifold i've been very lazy lately. lol. since the holidays and everything but later on this week i'll post some more up.

BlackSandPtC

and i did actually install my gauges, i got all AEM gauges. wideband, tru boost, and oil pressure. ill post pics of that too. and to show that i am lean, i'm about 14.8 right now. =X

rhythmnsmoke

At Wide open throttle, or just basic driving? If basic driving, that's not lean, that's normal.

BlackSandPtC

i haven't driven it yet with the gauges, when i start my car its already between 14.8 - 15.0.

Mr_Meaty

that's exactly where it should be.
When your in boost, you want it to go down to the 11s.

Wow, your gonna FREAK OUT the first time you shift and your gauge leans out off the charts!

I'm worried for you, bro.

BlackSandPtC

so then i should be fine right? i notice when i rev the numbers go crazy i'm like whoa whoa whoa. but when they scanned my car to see if i was lean they said i was too lean. they said i should stay around 12-13

java09

when you fine tune your car the afr's wont be so speratic. you want 14.7 afr's at idle and you want 11's like phil said at wot. also when you let off the gas your afr's will jsut drop off the gauge and three little red lines will be all that is displayed, normal.

rhythmnsmoke

Your car is working like it should be. Your gauge is working and reading like is should.


PS......Don't freak out either, when your A/F ratio goes......"------". It's normal when the throttle body closes.

BlackSandPtC

alright thanks you guys its my first time using a wideband so yeah. so my car should be working as it should be except the fact i still need fuel injectors because my car keeps dying out, which is not good while on the street. =X

Mr_Meaty

Oh, so you haven't driven it yet with the gauges yet, but THEY (the shop?) said it's running lean? Then they had a wideband (like on the dyno) hooked up, and you probably ARE running lean due to the stock injectors, but your not lean at idle.

BlackSandPtC

yeah they had a wideband on the dyno but they didn't want to finish it because after 2nd or 3rd gear they said i started to get really lean so they didn't finish but they said it was about 2 and a quarter whp when they stopped so yeah.

BlackSandPtC

here's a closer pic of the manifold as promised. =)

BlackSandPtC

question, i was wondering would if i'll be fine without emanage for now if i just got the fuel injectors, would my car still die out or no? and would i still be lean when i'm at normal everyday driving?

rhythmnsmoke

^^If you are getting injectors, then you are going to need management for them.
