wideband doesn't measure A:F directly, it measures exhaust gas oxygen level.
All fuels have different stochyimeteric rates. Gasoline is 14.7:1 and E85 fuel is 9.7:1, i believe methanol is even richer as is pure ethanol. Some widebands can be calibrated for certain fuels. Better to tune at .85 Lamda then you don't even need to know what the fuel, almost all fuel makes most power when there is that much air left in the exhaust anyway....

Thanks bad i just hope i can get near the performance that my raptor had tbh my old car went damn hard, i knew the single 2.5" zorst held me back in that thing but boy did it move.
The only turbo car ive been in was my m8s 180 that has an sr20det in it running something like 20odd psi, thats pretty much what sort of performance im after( he has recorded a best of 12.9 @ wsid). My target or phase two of this build will be aiming for mid 12s, but as is id be happy with a mid 13 just cant decide on the diff gears. I have a 3.9 lsd at home , a 3.27 in the car already or look at getting a 3.08 out of a 6cyl. Im really after opinions on this as alot of fast cars have really short gearing and i would like to keep up, any thoughts on that are welcome guys. Brad |

ATM car is off the road because of a very very homo coolant leak.
After gapping the plugs and reducing timing massively the car is homo off boost but nail it and F**k me it goes, my turbosmart boost tee is another homo because it keeps trying to go to 10psi but i dont want 10psi so its been removed. Ive also moved the boost signal from manifold to turbo i believe thats how the factor turbos are setup, after i fix my very homo H.O inlet manifold from leaking coolant i will see how much boost i lose through the intercooler. Dose videos coming soon. |
