Haha, yes Mr. Burgundy. My point is/was his lean AFR reading COULD be due to an exhaust leak. A piggy back unit will/could help the situation, but what if it doesen't? We can't blame his problem on that yet. Get me?

i understand what you guys are saying andand i appreciate the help and advice you're giving. when ibought the kit i had every intention to eventually get engine management. now that im having this problem its just prompting me to get it sooner.

listen bsptc27. i know everyone wants to have love for the people who make there kit. and you want to swear up and down that there is nothing wrong with it. but if you dont belive me then go ask any professional tuner who has no intrest in competing with treadstone, if its ok to boost a car without engine managment. we dont need anymore tc's blowin up. if your wot is 13!!! you got problems. i beg you to take it easy till you get an engine management. please dont let your love for treadstone cloud your judgement.

the wideband is supposed to be a minimum of 36" away from the turbo. I went 2 feet.
I have 2 other widebands in the same spot and there dead on accurate.
Any closer to the turbo and you burn out the sensor quicker.
Yours afrs are off due to the exhaust leak from the s pipe. Even the smallest leak will cause the readings to be off.
The wga port is for a electronic boost controller
