I recieved my 4_0_1 maps from jeff and those helped some. LTFT stays around -0 and STFT -6. Still like to burp out the fireball on decel from open loop with a load. had it stall out at a light this moring during a sudden stop. AFR's went pig rich.

And during some clean up in garage last night, I found the KGParts flow report on the primaries... Not the 290cc like i incorrectly stated earlier. They flowed at 330cc.

But.........she made it to work! First trip outside of the local 'hood.

09: you just need to get Jeff to work on your car on a dyno and get it tuned in one day instead of this 4_0_1 stuff.

Word. Funny thing is that I do have some dyno time availble. just getting Jeff availble and myself at the same time maybe tricky.

My experiences were similar leading to the conclusion that the number they give you you not be taken as gospel and flow testing all 6 injectors on the same machine to get a comparative reading was a good idea .

Well thats just it. I have a print out on each injector's before and after flow rate.
So either i have some wierd ground or other harness issue.....
I was really attentive in matching the proper harness wire colors to the the proper inj.
I have recent log attached based off the 4_0_1 map provided by Jeff. I know i'm not done tuning, I just really hate driving in traffic when it decides to melt the bumper of the person behind me.

log sent to Jeef.

There is something to be said about the folks I know in Az.
(in NO particular order)
1. We're Damn lucky to have Jeff since he's a nut when it comes to tuning.
2.Elliot and Nick (see I didn't forget you) At Turblown. Thanks for pressure testing the intake side. Nothing like boost leaks to spoil a day.
3. Mr Charles R. Hill, Well do I need to say anymore?
4.Erick (Easy_E1) and TehTodd (FlashWing). We need to hang out more. Maybe I'll be fast like Ericks TII some day.

This may come off as drunken, trite post, but it's neither. I suck at forming understandable ramblings.

Boost comes on quik.

You know it. Next year I'm planning on Taking down Phil's 8 and this Jedi guy.
Well maybe not, but at least drive it more often.

There is a strange transition issue with Dave's Car. Other than that small drive-ability bugs that need to be worked out. Its good on the power, but leans out a little on the higher end boost. I've hit 8psi driving, Dave told me he opened the wastegate near 10psi on his way home. Something is amiss, been swapping parts, and trouble shooting most of the day with Jeff. Kind of thinking there is a injector issue. Almost identical set up car in the photo runs perfectly. We will get it....

Yeah, what he said ^
So sometime after Christmas Jeff, Elliot, and I will get back together and see what we can hammer out.
Lets just say, the 8 squats now and the open WG, sounds like pissed off banshee's.
