breaking my turbo virginity
i know what ya mean man, the thought crossed my mind when i dropped the car.. i have a set of CE28 copies lined up for track days which i hope to do soon.. plus a set of adjustable top arms to sort the camber.. you'd be surprised about the suspension travel though! its pretty good for how low i am.. I need coilovers bad :(
Car is running nicely, need a new clutch though the F1 isnt holding.

So im getting a misfire under heavy load every so often.. my thought are the spark plugs, so im ordering a new set.
I'll also check the leads and see for cracks. hopefully its something small

you can see here in the middle of the screen that at idle my afr is around 15, and when i pull off it drops to 9 and goes normal. this is even after using VEAL so is it something else? my plugs or maybe leads? or an idle setting?

also, i noticed that on wot the duty cyle dips every so often?

can anyone give me a direction on this.. ive found a few threads that outline my issue but none resolve it.. I'm just going Really lean on idle after a hot start. It driving me nuts, do i need to enrichen my VE table? or are there parameters i need to alter elsewhere..
Research "coolant related air density" and see if you can find something on a modification to the msq to allow MS to adjust differently for the MAT. I did it but remember next to nothing about it.
Also make sure the MAT sensor is outside the engine bay or else it will heat soak and read erroneously when warm. Behind the radiator is bad.
