i am still working on getting rid of my lean spike as im coming into boost. once boost hits, its fine, but before that its really struggling. could be a vac leak, idk.
at idle my wideband is reading full lean, but the car is pig rich. im having a hard time figuring that out as well. i will recalibrate my wideband when i do the pressure test. hopefully everything will get fixed!
Pig rich based on NBO2 reading or smell?
smell. you have any ideas?
my low fuel trim is pegged 12.5% rich but thats due to my pcv being setup incorrectly. figured i could tune around it, but my wideband is reading full lean so i cant.

It sounds like you have some big vacuum leaks. Lean throttle tip in and idle were both symptoms when I was chasing around leaks. I always knew my car developed them when those things happen. I'd definitely pressure test as soon as you can.
I think the MAFT is under rating the airflow the engine is actually seeing. I think adding a couple clicks to the base knob will help bring it back to where it should.Quote:

And yeah m not gonna dive the car until I pressure test it. I'm not sure how to pressure test my intake plenum half of my blow thru setup, the air will go right out of whatever valve is open. Anyone have an idea on that?
I'd say either your wideband isn't in a great spot or your engine really isn't running rich.
Do your trims read +12 or -12?
