Default Interesting - did a 4.9 FATS today on 80% SEL scaling and two guys in the car

And that wasn't even an official FATS, just some pull on the freeway after doing many pulls. Intersting things we learned today! ;-)

You guys both have TC?

Default We were seeing how his car's CF would respond to ...

less boost & more timing. Just experimenting. Throttle cut isn't an issue on his car, but his fueling was all rich.

Default Gotcha, haven't seen it on the kit either, thought something was whacky.

How's yours coming along? Know Dave is hoping to get his boost leak found/fixed soon.

Default Hey Hal, my car runs lean w/o tweaks. Nobody knows why yet. ...

I've got really high ltfts until I throw in primary fueling, about 7%. Cable said the injector duty cycles looked ok so I assume my injecors aren't clogged, but I'm giving up on assumptions. Dustin also had a det can hooked to both our cars, and both Andrew's and mine are saturating KSV and pulling way back with NO actual knock.
I called APR Friday and they said their tech would call me back Monday. I won't sit around and wait. Someday I'll find it. Either some piece of hardware is faulty, or I knarfled something (else) in the install.

What box are you? Are you running cats or testpipes? Curious

Default Still think something is up with the EGTs... seems APR is ultra sensitive on these sensors. Dunno

for sure. I have not seen this kit saturate KVs before though. That is unusual. Do you get any audiable pinging after the shift going from WOT in 3rd and then WOT in 4th?

Guessing Jason and Dustin both blessed it with a clean bill of health. Would think it would be better without the paper towel action going on heh. Looks like something I would have done...

Default No TC here, just higher knock than I'd like. But, like Jon said, we think the knock sensors are

overactive. Also, had some weird fueling issues, where pulling even 20% fuel in Lemmi did absolutely nothing on the wideband O2 at WOT...
