New 3inch piping from turbo back, to a HKS Hi Flow 4.5 inch outlet. Also, check out the AFR readings and car temp and rpms. Notice the smoke from the exhaust?? it aint cold outside..im not sure if thats rich or lean..i think rich.

UPDATE AFR VIDEO ON PAGE 3

 

that little bit of smoke is just from the rich condition caused from the bov opening and being vented to atmosphere same with the boggin/stalling..but im trying to figure out why its staying as rich as it was at idle for that long...

BUT once we can get you back down for another day/weekend, we will set you up with a blow through, readjust the safc and you will be boosting and reving as much as you want with no stalling..

and the exhaust sounds great, cant wait to have you back down so we can get it set and get some action videos

 

i cant wait either man. Its frustrating driving around town and worrying about afr readings lol. im just gonna drive slowwwww till its ready to go fasttt.

 

damn ur boosted nice

 

Yepp. not boosting though till some bugs are fixed. Thanks.

 

^still sounds good

 

Thanks, i like it also, the vid does not do it justice..especially in black and white what was i thinking??!? Thanks though.

 

Yes!!! now my turn. Those mvp headers didnt do justice for our cars haha


::edit also that check engine, is ur 2ndary 02 sensor hooked up? pm a part list you used buddy. I need some ideas.


btw your car is running a little rich. Its better rich than lean, but, hope you get ur safc tuned.

 

It wont be tuned till the 6th should i just not drive it as much as possible?? Im considering it...and ill get a list asap.

 

Since the vid didn't show you running under load it's hard to say. What kind of readings to you usually get driving around?

 

congrats sounds great

 

Send him the list because that was my first thought.
You can drive it as long as you're not pulling super-low o2 killing afr readings. It'll cost you your plugs but it'll get you to work and back.

I'd like to know this one too.

 

when we took his car out for the first drive, keeping it out of boost, it was reading from mid 13's to 15.3 while cruising, which is dead on to what my car was depending on throttle%. The couple times it started to make boost, it would drop to low 11's up to 4psi, then jump to 14's after 4psi and throttle was cut immediately. But I have a feeling that is due to the FP ECU still being in tact and the stock pump just not keeping up once positive pressure is built.

All the factory o2's remained in place, except the factory 3rd o2 that was on the midpipe was not connected during the initial drive. but Carlos did say that he had a CEL before we even started the swap, so if its still present when he comes back down for the finishing touches, Im gonna run a diagnostic on it and see what the CEL is for.

Just a little more tweaking on the weekend of the 6th, and all the bugs will be worked out.

 

Hey Chris, can we do this this saturday? Ill drive up to chorpus in the mid afternoon and see what we can get done before nightfall, then get a real early start in the morning so i dont gotta drive her for so many days untuned.

 

I have to work this weekend, but if something comes up I will let you know.
