I posted this on Turbotweak.com but thought I'd share here too and let anyone else take a stab at my issues.
Please see the attached log. The car seems to run way lean no matter how much fuel I throw at it. The car is equipped with a Walbro 340 fuel pump less than 1000 miles old, hotwire kit, added ground leading from the fuel pump harness directly to the negative battery terminal, and a volt booster. Additionally, I am logging fuel pressure and it seems to be rising nicely with boost. It appears the fuel system is up to snuff.
I turned down the boost to the minimum my external gate will go and maxed out the fuel in settings 1 and 5 in an attempt to flood the engine. No matter what I do, the WBO2 and factory O2 sensors show lean. I even added some fuel to parameter 7 with no changes to the AFR. The closed loop feature in parameter 6 works like a charm though as the car drives great and idles at roughly 13.5 and cruises at 14.2 on the wideband.
I did change the turbo long ago from the TE-63 when I ordered this chip to a BB6262sp but I wouldn't think it flows that much more air at 8 psi than the old turbo. Plus, I made a few shakedown passes at the end of last season and everything appeared to be working fine then.
Until I figure out what is going on, I turned the alky off and lowered the timing in parameters 3 and 4 just to be safe. The attached file reflects those changes.
Thanks for your help.
