Running too Rich psi glx 02-11-2001, 08:44 PM
Well yesterday I hit the Dyno @ AWE Tuning in Philly. http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1316886&a=11507927&p=40657857 Found out more info about my check engine light: 1- Car is running to rich, this is what is causing my misfires. Now I got the AMS Kit with the shitty AMS Chip, any idea's on how to fix besides getting Garrett (GIAC.com) to burning me a new chip for $700. 2- Belt was slipping, this was an easy fix, but man did it look bad on the dyno....car was generating a ton of HP at the wheels on its way to 4500RPM and then WHAM....just fell on its face... 3- If i get the fuel leaned out now, if I try to up the boost more later will I need to redo another chip then @ $700? http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1316886&a=11507927&p=40657850 Chris J - Yellow GTI VR6 w/ Z Engineering was there and had a nice run for Z with 226 @ Wheels and 221 Torque w/ Z Kit, Schrick Intake and I believe he also has cams. http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1316886&a=11507927&p=40657848 BTW- My Stats were 227 @ Wheels w/ Slipping Belt and Bad fuel fix at 4500rpm and was still climbing. Torque was 221 ft/lb @ 4500 and was still climbing as well.
