wastegate is set at 8.5psi. I haven't checked the plugs yet but my stock ECU is reading very very rich off it's O2 sensor. also my EGT's are dropping about 15-20degrees at WOT as I roll into boost from a highway roll...... I don't hear the ping though. the exhaust just seems to crackel like almost a early rev limiter, but the RPM's climb very very slowly after about 7k....I am staying out of the throttle till I can get to a dyno or someone can give me an idea to make it run a bit better.

at idle my fuel presure is up about 10psi from stock
pull more timing. My buddy fucked his valves up from nitrous. he kept adding fuel and kept detonating. so he added more fuel. Finally his valve ate the big one. PULL MORE TIMING and see what happens

And if your idle-4k is affected too greatly I would suggest an MSD BTM ignition w/boost retard(not sure if its included) so you can get the best of both worlds.

yeah, no disrespect, but i know how to read the code, it gives Long, short, short, short. the first time it happened i was worried so i checked it for 2 minutes straight, it's 13.
Man, I apologise if I disrespected YOU.

I'm getting the feeling you are running an OBD2 ECU? I know jack **** about OBD2 and should stfu pls kthx. As long as you aren't getting the code 3 you aren't over boosting for your injector size.

i think it'd OBD2, because my car is fairly new (2000 ex). i got the max-rev kit, and the TiAL wastegate is set at .45 bar (6.5psi) so it's pretty conservative when it comes to boosting, i don't plan on upping it either.

i'm happy the way my car runs, and hopfully it'll last a long time... oh yeah, i should reset my ECU sometime, stupid *** code 13 came on again hehehehe. good luck to all the v-afc users out there!

yah it's obd2.2 or version 2 or whatever they call it. mine is a 2000 too I have the same problems. btw just asking are both your lo throttle and hi throttle settings the same? because I noticed I haven't gotten the code 13 much since i made both settings the same. the car was semi tuned by John (Vapor Trail) during a 3 pull dyno session so I used those settings on lo throttle too. Also I posted about the code 13 a while back. Viren (b18bturbo) said that the code usually occurs from "too much adjustement" on the afc or something like that. Like I said I haven't gotten code 13 in a LOOOOOOONG time. So if you want try setting both maps for hi and lo throttle to the same settings.
