Default fixed the bogging problem

well yeah you CAN have TOO MUCH fuel... if you have an autometer A/F gauge rip it out and throw it out the window because it is pretty useless.. i bumped the fuel pressure a little down and it made 0 differance on teh A/F gauge but made a HUGE differance in acceleration.. im gonna play with it later and try to come up with the ideal pressure... still have et to run it on juice.. i wonder if it is better..:thumbup:

you need to get a/f ratio gauge which runs off of wideband o2 to tune... the **** most folks have is worthless. i guess it's kinda good to see if you aren't running to lean at full boost when you're turbo'd. but you can't tune off of it.

i have a fuel pressure gauge under the hood.. but i want one inside to see what the pressure is at at WOT on juice...


and yeah that is really the only reason i have it.. to see if im leanign out on juice.. but i just thought it was more usefull than that.. i guess not.. **shrugs**

yeah i have a gauge.. you definately cannot do anything to fuel pressure without a fuel pressure gauge...
