Hey, got a question.

Say I'm slowing down and I'm gonna select a lower gear, if give it a boot full to match the revs with the lower gear it can hesitate or feel sluggish with the clutch in free reving.

I have a lightened flywheel aswell so it should respond to my commands quicker than stock.

Vacume leak?

Dirty afm?

Tune?

What pump and injectors are you running?

I have seen many cases where the fuel pump flows more than the reg can, especially when the injectors are cut on decel. It can cause rich hesitation. Do you have a wideband fitted?

What is the wideband reading when you back off? Does it go lean then rich? The turbosmart reg should be fine unless the fuel pressure is set high.

A lot of that light load tuning can be difficult to do on the dyno, if you have the software I would suggest having a play with the lower end of the map yourself if you are confident, or asking your tuner to clean it up a bit.

Also make sure o2 correction is enabled, so the ecu can self tune the light load areas. The fuel requirements can change constantly with the weather otherwise.

Afr is lean when I back off, I'll check if it goes rich again,

Fuel press set at stock. 37.5 from memory.

The only tune I hav was road tuned via the internet. (I live in the desert)

I have all the tuning gear but inexperienced

The O2 was disabled and it run dog rich,

When I enabled it it cleared up a lot of problems

It's 14.7 in most cruise situations although it was around 16 straight after tune and then changed to 13.5

    • No not yet.  Hopefully this weekend if I can pluck up the confidence!  I had to sit in the car at one point yesterday to unbolt the rear struts.  As mentioned in an earlier post when I was putting it together there is still a bit of rotation possible so when I sat in the car, it rotated a little bit.  I near shit myself thinking the whole thing was coming down!  I do 99% of my own shit in the shed but I think I might call on some assistance the first time I spin it!
    • Strong first post. On a Skyline-centric forum. Have you considered actually going out into the world, visiting the actual dealership, and asking the parts guy over the counter? Or at least just call them up on the phone?
    • Should shit that in as for the driver ability probably not
    • Trying to find the plastic under cover for an 04' Forester X. The main under cover that covers most of the front of the vehicle under the engine. This has turned out to be a crazy experience. Normally I can find parts for vehicles, if I have the correct info, no problem. But not this! The Forester is a non-turbo btw. In a Forester parts catalog, for model years 03'-06', it shows part# 56410SA070 as being the correct part. So I go to the local Subaru dealership's website to order it. I type in the part#, hit search and there it is, the under cover. "DOES THIS PART FIT YOUR VEHICLE?" I type in my VIN# and sure enough, "This Part Does Not Fit Your Vehicle. See Similar Parts For Your Vehicle." I click on that and part# 56410SA000 comes up. Looks absolutely nothing like the previous part. Not even close. So I go to a different Subaru dealer website and put in that 2nd part# (56410SA000) and "This Part Has Been Replaced By" 56410SA070, which is the first part I looked up. I thought OK, makes sense. They replaced the strange looking part, with the one I looked up first, so I add it to the cart. "Does This Part Fit Your Vehicle?" I type in my VIN#, and sure enough, "This Part Does Not Fit Your Vehicle." I've basically been doing this with various parts suppliers and dealerships, for the past 4 hours! Does anyone know what the hell is going on?? Thanks in advance!
