I would have fitted the injectors pulled boost down to your previous levels of 8 and 10psi, not played with the timing, but it would have allowed the car to run a safe and give a better indication of the difference. Personally I am suprised you didn't lunch a motor @ 14.5:1 afr's at 4500 rpm. Shows how durability of these motors. But seeing as the motor did lean out to such a level shows that your boost would have peaked higher than what you saw previously with the generic tune of 10psi, which is to be expected after freeing the inlet up like that, giving you a well false indication on the difference. Did you log the boost that the car was reaching, if so what was it? Just by going from your above post it sounds like there was no adjustments made to the tune.

Melbourne Posted 26/06/07 02:41 AM Share Posted 26/06/07 02:41 AM So let me ask you this, If you want to clean/inspect the air filter do you have to take off the front bar??? Or can you get access to by taking off some of the plastic covers in the wheel arch and under the bar??

groper Member 611 Member For: 18y 2m 11d Posted 26/06/07 08:57 AM Author Share Posted 26/06/07 08:57 AM (edited) ok @ fat tony- we ran up the 8psi tune, no worries. next, Flashed the 10psi, all was good until suddenly it jumped 14.5 very quickly, so shut down. Why didnt we put in the injectors? because our dyno shop cant tune capa boxes! our tuner is 800km`s away and we will be going there as soon as we have finished building the car, so we only drive 800kms once. Now do you see our dilema? we didnt risk the engine at all by only driving it off boost as we knew it would do this... now we know the 8psi is ok, we can fang around on that tune until we get custom tuned, which is when the injectors will go in.after we do the 4inch zorst and 044 fuel pump (next mod), we will probably have to drive on the valet tune to visit out tuner, as all others will be unsafe, and the factory tune may go into limp mode...stangely enough, it didnt go into limp mode on the factory tune with just this kit fitted??? I cant remember if we revved it right out though...to get to the pod filter now, all you have to do is remove the splash guard under the front bumper, stick you hand up and loosen the hose clamp, filter off... so you dont need to remove the bar itself...
