However, when the car goes into higher load cells, fuel is added to enrich the AFR and those fuel additions are made without regard to the O2 sensor's readings. If you car was tuned with a pump that delivered less volume at higher boost pressures (and fuel pressure is regulated by boost pressure at the FPR) than the Walbro, then these enrichments are going to be too generous and your car will run too rich. The fact that the higher load cells are essentially open loop since the car doesn't use a wideband O2 sensor is the problem. The car does have a return line FWIW. Make sense?
Thank you but I know how a computer system works in a car. I was just woundering how the Evo system worked because someone said he needed a retune after installing a fuel pump just didn't add up. Its nice to know the Evo has a NORMAL fuel system on them. All the newer VW's have returnless fuel systems, drive by wire, and 6 wire(wideband) O2 sensers
