im on my stock turbo wuth alky and i just did a log and it says im hitting 352 load....is this correct? i have seen 35r evos not hitting that high of load.....

 

It is usuallly associated with boost leak or few aftermarket intake tricking maf to read too high. If not, you are really boosting high.

 

ok i think i found my problem then.....i have a k&N cone filter and i havnt recaled my maf yet......would that cause this problem? im only spiking 25.6 psi.....

 

Thats a very high reading.. I've seen some intakes really foul with the signal but that doesn't seem right..

What are you using to calculate load? Do you have aftermarket injectors, was the ECU flashed to reflect the new injectors and injector latency? If they were, was the logging tool your using also adjusted accordingly?

 

FWIW Many aftermarket filters and intake pipes cause the ECU to read a bit low at idle and midrange, and fairly normal at higher RPM, Since it slows the airflow down through the MAF so getting an abnormally high load is somewhat unusual.

 

At 25.6psi you are likely hitting around 300 peak load, maybe a tad higher...

 

It depends alot on the intake mods.. You'd be surprised how much lower aftermarket Intakes make the car read..

 

post log,

Running alky boost levels with untuned fuel maps may cause higher loads. This in conjunction with the filter will make it higher, but not as high as 360.

Show the 3rd gr log just in case someone might notice something besides load to be unusual.


Does yopur load curve correspond directly to your IPW curve?

 

ok here it is....this is my first log from my alky install.......its currently untuned for my cone filter and alky

 

bump

 

help.....

 

I can't help you with that log file.. But what are you using to calculate load? Its more likely that your hitting about 300 but the load calculation is slightly off.

 

im using evoscan to calculate load......and ive tested it on my friends car and its reading correctly on his car.......and ive even done the load formula myself and it still comes up the same.....

 

I think we need to know your exact modifications.. a high reading can be caused by several different things.

 

nisei full intercooler piping...
k&N cone filter
hks evc V
snow stage 2 alky injection with safe injection
BC 272 cams full exhaust
o2 housing
SS exhaust manifold
act clutch
lightened flywheel
...........that pretty much sums it up.....maybe a few little things i left out that i cant think of off the top of my head....
