im losing faith in places now to know what they are doing, i took her back today and now it is a different guy running it, he wasnt totally sure how to use all the rolling road gear!!!! was odsessed with trying to sell me a live map or a danesk chip... i wouldn't trust the guy to wipe his arse let alone touch my car!!
any who... if the rollers where setup properly, this time round the afr was 14.8 @ idle then a constant 12.5-12.8 through the rev range... which is way too lean again, even with a gtec2 hf, 3.8bar fpr, walbro fuel pump and wiring mod....
im just getting stumped now with what else i can do except a live map (but noooo way is that guy doing it!!!)
can anyone help?! or recommend me a rr near me or in hastings as i am down there the beginning of next week.

Have you tried lowering the boost a bit to see if that'll make it a bit richer!? Also, might be worth thinking about getting the injectors cleaned if you're considering a map in the not too distant future.

Cheers,

Mark

The boost he is running should not be a problem.

Take the car to a decent rolling road - if you need to travel to do so then do it. From those last readings you are running WAY TO LEAN.

I just had a thought.... with the old 3.0 fpr and standard fuel pump it wasnt too far off, so if i changed back to the 3.0 fpr using the walbro pump, it might sort it out?!
im going to find a decent rolling road and goto that as you said suba, it worth the time travelling and fuel, irather that than the engine goes *pop*

Im having similiar issues Dan, I got my car rolling roaded at Matty's new place of work at the weekend and it was shown to be running very lean (We believe this is probably what caused my last engine to go \:\( )

I've got a near standard engine, was running 1 bar of boost with Gtech1 chip and Apexi Induction kit. Matty and MattB checked the standard fuel pump was getting enough power which it was so next step is tonight.

I've fitted a high fuelling Gtech 1 Chip and will get the car rolling roaded again tonight with Matty.. \:\)


Ex 20VT - now something far more sensible'ish... smile

here is the print out from the last rolling road, i think i need to tweak the Greddy a bit as the power shoots up dips then comes back on...

yet again the coop has been on a rolling road, i think that she is nearly running ok, its slightly lean on spool up but once on full boost it runs rich, i think that it is just the chip that needs tweaking to suit??
i have just about sorted out the boost spike by setting up the boost controller again
