Good idle with 1600cc injectors?
How hard is it to tune a car to get a good idle with 1600cc injectors?
My tuner cant get the car to get a steady idle. My idle jumps from 980-1100 rpms which is very annoying since i have very stiff HASPORT motor mounts and i can feel every rpm as it jumps up.
I bought an FJO Injector driver to help with this idle problem (Searched through h-t). But it was giving me problems once it was installed. Hondata confirmed that an injector driver will not work with my engine management (Hondata K-Pro) and they recommended using a resistor box.
If it matters.. heres my fuel setup:
Golden Eagle Fuel Rail
RC 1600CC Fuel Injectors
Resistor box from an old honda/acura car
Aeromotive a1000 fuel pump
Areomotive Fuel pressure Regulator
Two Aeromotive Fuel filters
10-AN main feed/-6AN return line

help me please!
If my car was tuned on a wideband and is running in open loop... would the "Idle Target Lambda" setting matter at all? its currently at 14.59:1 right now?
Not sure if that matters because i remember my tuner saying the Lambda AFR wont be working since its running open loop. Or it doesnt work when trying to datalog in open loop mode?

Re: (boostedK20a2)
it is VERY possible to get the car to idle correctly on 1600's...I know of a civic running dual 1600cc injectors per cylinder on alcohol, and it idles like stock...it's one of the EFI 101 guys car...

Well, i filled up on a tank of gas and my idle problem went away.
Now im not sure if my a1000 fuel pump needed a certain amount of gas in the tank (had a 1/4 or less before filup) to run properly or if i just had bad gas.
Before the fill up.. my idle was set at 1300 rpms to see if it would stay steady. The idle would jump up and down 300-500 rpms no matter how high or low th eidle i set up. After the fill up, the car would run better and idle would stay steady. Lowered it down to 1000 and its still steady.
