Yeah, that is too high.
What calibration are you running?

I am running the stage 1 from cobb. I'm pretty sure the the REVI is causing this but I was sure the REVI had the same airflow than the stock one. I'm a bit confused. There is no way the RB air duct could cause that, I measure the airflow and it doesn't increase the airflow, even at high speed.

So you think that I should revert to stock map or have my car tuned ?
What would be the effect of running that high ? Damages, loss of power ?

Thanks for your help

Yeah, but you have to clean the feathers when they get dirty and you have to feed the poor bird at the same time you refill the oil.

My bad, it's a stupid typo !!

Mate,

I too have a REVI intake, just purchased AP no maps yet installed (1st job to do this week end!), I have been using efidude and I am getting mid 10's at WOT on OEM setup apart from the intake, so I too doubt its the intake. Does sound lean for WOT....

ok, i'll bite. pics taken on my Voyager so they arent great quality...

$6 for a wal-mart cell phone clip
approximately $15 for the panavise mount
15 minutes to chop up the clip to fit on the mount
30 minutes to install in a dark parking garage with a minimag light








now i'm just waiting on the OBDII splitter to plug both the AP and the ScangaugeII in

Here's mine. I have have navigation that comes with my Palm pilot and I just used suction cup holder for it. Fits beautifully ... only thing is that I can't use navigation and AP at the same time --> but it's not like I get lost on my way to work or anything so no big deal.

Alright gotta ask. I went the cell phone mounting route (clip into airvent), but how do you guys drive with the thing plugged in? The bulky USB-OBDII connector sticks out right where my left foot is..

Yeah, I think I'll either need to do that (haven't found anything through google yet), or buy an extended or splitter for the OBDII port that has a dongle that doesn't stick out as far.

You can also reach under and bend the metal bracket holding the OBDII connector up, giving more clearance for your feet. If you look under the steering wheel the bracket is very simple and with a little 'encouragement' can be bent into a more opportune placement.
