Default A/F staying at full rich!!

as the title says......what would cause this to happen. also, turbo is making no power at all. Plenty of boost, just no power.

for more detail see this post https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=269245

autometer a/f ratio gauge...stays at full rich no matter what. idle, full throttle...took a voltage reading and got 1 volt at the sensor during idle....

Its not hooked up to the right wire, or it doesnt have a clean connection, one of the two.

isnt 1 volt the max voltage for an o2 sensor?? That would mean that my gauge is reading correctly...there must be something wrong with the o2 sensor??

Honestly I wouldn't trust that autometer A/F guage. You can acctually read full rich when in fact you extremely lean on those things. I'm a firm believer in Widebands. My engine would prolly still have compression on all cylinders if I hadn't used the damn autometer a/f guage to tune mine for 6 months.....

it wasnt actually tuned with that gauge. after my intercooler pipe came of it just stays at that reading.....I know something is wrong because I make 10psi of boost and feel almost no power....
