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

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.
