Hi Guys,
I did my first 3rd gear pull this morning with my WB02 connected - any comments:
Personally I think it looks pretty lean up until 5500rpm... Is it worthwhile adding fuel from 3000-4000 rpm to get down to 12.0
mods: stock maps, 3" exhaust, EBC (19.5 PSI)


Cheers
David

looking at your load cells....isnt that a bit low? At 22lbs i am around the 240-250 load cells using both Evoscan & Mitsulogger...maybe these values seem skewed because he isnt at peak boost ...

yep, thats what I thought, 2 quick questions:
1) are those numbers about what you would expect for an IX (with lean spool enabled) - I want to make sure the WBO2 is working properly
2) if I am not knocking at those lean rpm's is there any point in richening it up? I thought leaner was better... (up to a point..)
edit: I should mention i'm running about 19.5 PSI boost..

can you take a snapshot of your timing/fuel maps for us to see where your timing is supposed to be versus to where its at on the log...that can also help us analyze your log a bit better...

I hope I don't start another wb war, but it does sound like different sensors will have different readings. thus, a reading is only as good as its consequences on your motor. (unless you do hundreds of readings on hundreds of cars to know where your readings lean.)
so that would imply you tune to what you can get away with and then back off a bit.
in your case you may or may not be on the edge of to something. the only way to know would be to go a bit farther to see what the impact is.
same would go for timing, once you have come to an understanding on your afr. then the process starts over as you tweak to see what works best.
however as pointed out in another thread, the consequences of a broad range of afr has a small impact on power. it is conceivable you could run any where from 11.0 to 11.7 and not gain enough power to notice it.(say a few hp). it becomes a matter of efficiency to the obsessed tuner to tune afr to the tenth.
still in order to know where you stand with your motor and your sensor it might be worth it to find the limit so you can back away from it. not something I would advise anyone with the knock filter mucked with.
one last bit, I would try not to go wot until you are closer to 3k. unless that is your normal driving style.

yup I noticed the IDC's, not sure how accurate that is... injector scaling might be off..
you guys say too lean, but if its NOT knocking then is there any point in adding fuel?

Right at 7000 rpm it gets real rich, even though the counts weren't high it was the duration that perhaps sent it to low octane map.
Also, doesn't look lean to me anywhere maybe a little to much time, but thats just me. The lean part is where your making the power, from 3500 - 5500rpm it takes 2.18 sec, but from 4000 -6000rpm your already down to 2.41 sec too rich and too much time up top
On the other hand, for only 19psi the car looks pretty danm strong if you ax me. What kind of fuel was that?
