so...i just drove into los angeles...from new mexico
went from 5500ft altitude to sea level...my car was tuned perfectly at 9lbs putting out sae corrected #'s of 465hp 446tq

i figured if i turned the boost to 6lbs here in california, that the difference in altitude would keep similar power and a decent a/f ratio...only gonna be here for 4 days, so i wasn't too concerned with re-dynoing my car...but the car at 6lbs here on manual setting feels pretty weak, i am assuming the car is running rich, unfortunately i dont have an a/f gauge to monitor that at this time....so i'm hoping one of you can help me "mcguyver" my car so it will run smoother.

i was wondering if you think this would help/could help with my issue...if anyone on this forum has a tt at sea level (or near sea level) could you please post:
digital pic of fuel map (profec-e01)
pounds of boost
power #'s (if available)

if anyone could help me with this, that would be awesome, i'm hoping to change my fuel map, and be able to rectify the problem..if any suggestions/comments, please go on and give em!

thanks!

 

If you don't have a wide band it would be akin to suicide to try to tune the maps or even just use a set up from another car. Way to many things that could go wrong and you just would end up with a blown motor.

Just hold off, get a wideband and get it tuned right. It's the safest route and there is little gained by rushing into it.

i know u are prolly very right... i may go and get it dynoed this fri ... and keep my new maps recorded. so i can switch them out if i drive out to cali again.

 

That sounds like the best idea, make sure you save the current MAPS on the e01 card before changing them.

 

You have mail..
