Alky Injection. No need for water/alcohol injection. Tuning? Read Read and Read so more. You need at least a scanmaster. Powerlogger is even better. Tuning these cars is no easy task. You can get a clean tune easily but to really tune them takes quite a bit of time and understanding.

 

[Seth Gingerich]

i figure some some good software and a wideband gauge would do wonders on these cars do you get quite a bit more timing out of alky injection? what is the air/fuel ratio suppose to be on these cars?

Exactly like all other gasoline run vehicles. Stoiciometric. I see a lagre mushroom cloud in your neighborhood soon.

 

[Seth Gingerich]

Is it a better idea to just go with a chip?

 

[blackgn1]

Do you have a Scanmaster? Boost Gauge? What chip is in the car right now? We need info my friend.

well, based on that information, most definitely he'd be WAY lean at 14.7 and fry something. 10.9-11.2 is safe at higher boost levels. need to monitor knock while pulling a little of this and adding a little of that.......

You guys just aren't any fun some times.

like i said i have no idea bout these cars i bought one cause i was always into the unique v6 turbo thing. from what ive read so far is taht these things dont flow oil worth a bad and hit knock way to easily. if someone could point me in a direction to start such as attachments for a scanmaster. and how abouts finding out if it is chipped or not would be great.

Not to mention relationships. I think 5 guys on the board got divorced in the last year and kept their cars at least.

Get it right, it was the 2 step! Mother nature tried racing a few second stories of a few houses though. Don't think they've found them yet either.

add a little dash of pulling your hair out and "i'm selling this fuckin piece of shit!!" and you'll be just fine.....

Check the ecu and find out what chip is in there. It it's the stock chip "there you go" ECU is in the passenger side kick panel.
