my point exactly - wouldn't 13s be a recipe for KABOOM !

Charles R. Hill 02-08-2008 06:33 PM

Exactly. I was just backing you up, Bro.:lol:

Under load, it would be a bit leeeean.

MazdaManiac 02-08-2008 06:53 PM

Not to mention produce way less power, even if it didn't detonate.
12.3:1 or so is the leanest point for power on the Renesis.
11.5:1 is as high as I would go with any serious boost.
I stay below 11.1:1.

BTW - how much boost is represented in that plot? ~260 HP and ~180 tq would equal about 4 PSI on my turbo.

No, your rear is not a dyno! :banghead:

butt dynos not withstanding :rollingla

shinka213 02-08-2008 07:03 PM

correct me if im wrong fellas....

how can you compare lbs of boost on an SC and a Turbo?

i know they both produce boost....but where is the equivalency?

Charles R. Hill 02-08-2008 07:06 PM

It's a rough comparison, one that is dependent of exactly where it is being measured, but when speaking generally the needed A/F ratios are pretty consistent. The real deal is looking at mass air flow.

He's talking about backpressure in the exhaust.:lol2:

olddragger 02-08-2008 07:29 PM

Thats s the a/f ratio"s!!!!!
Holey crap. I hope everyone is running wide bands! Is that with the flash?

olddragger 02-08-2008 07:31 PM

there is going to be a run on water meth injection systems

jskup1 02-08-2008 09:05 PM

I have a wideband and under WOT, I've never seen it above 12. I don't know why it was so lean on the dyno. I'm figuring because it was reading post cat

Are you the only one that realized in this particular instance, I was talking about the carpet? This was in response to you and Brettus talking about it. That's why it was right under your post and not under Jeff's request for a dyno from somebody with a Pettit SC. Maybe, it's late, but I don't think everyone got that???????

I saw as low as upper 10's when NA while WOT.

Is there a way to estimate the amount of air this SC pushes at 7-8 psi, and calculate based from the increased air, what the AFR would be if the PCM wasn't adding additional fuel?

olddragger 02-17-2008 04:13 PM

If I can of any help with the install--just shout out.
Welcome--its a great kit but as with all major mods you can do a little tweaking to make it better.

Yes, I read on the paper that someone in PA could it won the lotto but didn’t get to play the usual numbers. The report stated that the individual was out of town. Was that you? :eyetwitch
