Posted by Manek1, May-21-02 09:04 AM
k, so i turned it up today and man i didn't think it would make such a difference! i only did it in 3rd gear on the freeway and seemed like i was accelerating in 2nd.......topped out in 3rd and my EGT's peaked at only 600 celsius. still have my AFC set to 0% for high throttle.......time to go play with it and see if i can blow my motor i guess.

Must be nice....If the damn machine shop would hurry up I would be feeling 15psi also.

i've never ran my car under 8psi so i can't compare it to anything really, but it gives me the same feeling as when i went from NA to turbo.........sh*t if i couldn't lean out my SAFC for whatever reason i'd still be VERY happy with my 15psi.....but i am going to go lean it out, let's keep our fingers crossed!!!!!!!

as corbin says, tuning a new fuel system is really impossible to do it CORRECT unless you got a program to see your fuel curves to know how much you are leaning out... really if you know what your doing there is not need to cross your fingers... if you are unsure of tuning bring it to a dyno so u dont got to rebuild again...

What are your exact S-AFC low throttle settings?

Does it idle fine?

Are you using the Corbin map sensor for fooling the S-AFC?


Give me all the details brother!!!!! BTW: EGT 1112F is hella rich!

Welcome to the club.

You'll get used to it soon, and it won't feel so impressive (until you drive your gf's civic around for a while, then get back in your car!)

yeah there is a shop around here with a dyno and datalogger ability. hope they now what they're doing cause i've never used a data logger before. until i get the cash for that i'll play it on the safe side. so in 2nd it spikes to 17psi then goes to 15psi. 3rd and up is a steady 15psi (haven't even tried it in first yet). i have leaned it out at 15% across the board and my EGT's are still only hitting about 650-670 celsius at the top of 3rd. to compare, i was hitting about 820 celsius at 10psi with stock injectors. have most of you datalogged to tune your fuel at these boost levels? lol there was a viper on the road today and i was so tempted to follow him just to see....maybe if he didn't know how to drive the thing....1/4 mile slip this saturday, i'll let you know.
22793, time slip...

...ya I'm interested too that would be exciting to know your speed. I remember when you were going to sell your car. Damn I'm glad you never left the family and sho us you slips. Your car is fast as it is
