My Dwight Shrute bobble-head would probably be a fair stand-in, though.

I don't mean to derail the fun but I have a technical question. :P

Why is it that on some cars, the standard NA maps run the car rich above 5krpm?

Is this allowed to be explained without giving away secrets? The way I understood this stuff worked was that you more-or-less tell the ecu to shoot for a target lambda and it uses the fuel trims to get there.

Side note: I had my car driving around with the AP uninstalled yesterday and the CEL never came on with the catless midpipe. Non-functioning codes scare me.

Cat protection to keep the temps cooler...and under load you want to run it richer to prevent bad things from happening...so for safety they crank it up...

You need to meet a few requirements before the car triggers the cel. Also some cars (usually 2004s) don't show missing cat cels at all, or as easily.

I'm talking about with the MM1_X tune though. I thought the target was 12.5ish. From reading, it seems some cars go way lean and some rich hence why MM has made the 1B_X and 1C_X series.

I was wondering if we could get a technical lesson on why this happens. Fuel trims are working but trimming to the wrong target.

Its a combination of MAF calibration and injector "slop".
There is a wide range of injector output. Just because the primaries are supposed to be 290cc doesn't mean they are.
They can be anywhere from 276cc - 312cc and still be in spec.
The 380cc secondaries can range from 356cc - 404cc. The P2s the same.
That is a HUGE difference in lambda.
When you cross the open-loop threshold, the PCM calculates fuel without regard to this variation, so a command for a particular lambda target could yield just about anything.

My '04 has been through over 30 drive cycles with no cat, and I have no cel.

Good explanation. I forgot about open loop.

I only looked briefly as I was driving but around 7krpm in third at high-ish load I was in the 11s. Do you offer a set of maps to offset this or do you currently only have extra maps for lean cars?
