Default Whew, glad I autotapped!

Autotapped the car last night, getting ready to spray. First I put in TR6's.
Timing went to 20-24 at WOT, which is about right from what I understand, however o2's were low <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">
Low to mid .8XX's only 1 run that I logged got close to .900 So now I get to try to find a screen and see if that richens me back up, and if not I need to find a AFPR. Anyone else have anyideas?
May just sell the kit and stay NA?

try flippen the MAF sensor.. or get a MAFT..

on a side note what kit are you running?? if its dry you cant use the screen...

anyway i had the whisper ported ends and they ran in the .88-.90 range every pass
flipped they were in the .90-.93 range
my stock ends were in the .92-.95 range <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

i guess headers really do richen things up <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

but try a run with your maft flipped... just see how she does NA on 3 passes or so...

but i wouldnt spray on mid .8's

im still iffy on spraying when its around .88

Oh, yeah, don't guess I can use the screen! I'm running the NOS 5177 kit. I'll try flipping it to see what it does. I don't have headers, yet <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0"> maybe sometime soon! I'd like to be above .91x for every run, just so that I'm comfortable with it.

haha your the same way as me... i like mine .90+ on spray.. but im just spraying the TNT 75 dry..

but go out and do a few runs with it flipped.. i didnt think it would make a difference, but it did! But its worth a shot.. good luck and let me know if it worked..

You could get a MAFT to richen it up.Could come in handy in the future with headers ans stuff.
