Hey Everyone,
I have a B18A1 in a del Sol boosted at 6psi with an eBay turbo kit. I just got it back from tuning on Monday and im having "headache" fumes at boost. I also am getting 18-19 mpg taking it easy when before turbo I was getting 32-35 mpg. Is there any simple diagnostics I can do to improve fuel and get rid of the fumes? This is my first turboed car and I am lost when it comes to diagnosing a kit.

PS I am not running a Catalytic Converter... Just straight back to a cannon.

Thanks in advance!

 

what are you a/f's? have u checked for leaks?

has the car been tuned?

 

A/Fs are good I think. It runs optimal at idle and cruising. Yes it has been tuned

 

Something else I left out. Today when I started it up for the first time since last night I would hit the gas lightly as I was pulling away and the motor would stall for a split second like too much fuel was being put into the motor. Any ideas now?

Anyone??

 

if you just got it tuned on monday, i'd take it back to you tuner and have them diagnose it

 

Do you have a wideband to read your A/F's?

 

upgrade injectors????

 

how would upgrading injectors fix the OPs problem???

the car is either running rich or leaking somewhere from the information that is provided...

 

Hows your fuel management set up like?

 

Does seem like it was tuned properly to me AND you have a leak somewhere. Take it back to the tuner and tell them to fix it!

 

Thats what I was thinking too. I just wanted to see if there was something simple first. I do have a wideband, and 450 injectors. Fuel system is basic except walbro 255 fuel pump.

 

you think? YOU THINK? where the **** is your wideband?
