WOT switch

Do we have one? I looked at the throttle body and dont see one. I need a WOT input to my wideband gauge to record peak readings. If we dont should I mount a switch?

Why not just datalog everything and then go back and only count the wide band readings that occur during 100% TPS?

Why not just buy the software / equipment? What kind of wide band did you buy?

Yes you can tune your car with openecu which is 100% free software. Just use the tactrix to pull and flash your maps

This is why I love the Zeitronix so much. Wide band (both AFR and Lambda), TPS, RPM's, PSI, EGT...All in one.

I guess your options are limited to logging in two different programs and then comparing them side by side, hoping there's equal delay on both of the programs.

Other than that, you could just buy a WOT switch (like they sell for meth or nitrous kits) but you still won't know what RPM you're looking at to know where you need to add / remove fuel.
