it doesnt look way too rich up top, it looks to be near where you want it, about 12.5-13:1

The dip up at the end was it leaning out, and not been able to keep richening up.. as map richened up more..

And it was definately rich. I dunno about 12.5:1, seems a bit rich to me to have for an N/A car.

And in this case, Id definately say the AFRs don't do it justice.


Cheers

AFR's look pretty good. The intake temperature is a bit of a worry. Shouldnt be more than 1 or 2 deg above ambiant.

The intake air temp sensor is mounted away, down the bottom... Still haven't got around to mounting it near the air flow.. was meant to happen when I went to put filters on.. but filters are also on hold lol.

This is the Dyno's remote air temperature sensor we're talking about here?

lol yeah... he kind of just shook his head.

By the looks of things I should be finished road tuning by next saturday, and hopefully get it on the rollers again. Get some fine tuning, and then do a power run again.

Still gotta do some cold tuning, as its not as good as Id like it to be.. it runs and idles, and so forth, but just doesn't run right. I won't be happy till its better than stock..it is plug and play after all. But thats another story.


Cheers

Not yet.. Ill be getting one soon (hopefully next week). Which will help alot, but mostly I tune on the road, starting rich and working down from there. After that, I recommend dyno (if they wish to do so), and then tune the rest on the dyno. So far Ive been pretty close, but as you can imagine, its pretty difficult for a consisten accurate WOT tune on the road.


Cheers

Yeah, but Im constantly tuning, and not only my car, so thats why Im opting for a wideband.. makes life alot easier... as Im sure you know of its capabilities.
