do air/fuel gauges work well??

e3sean · February 10th, 2008, 01:02 PM

will it help with tuning my car? and how does it install,kinda like an 02 sensor?
i am gonna try and tune my car as best i can by myself before i take it to the dyno..i figure if i can get the air/fuel right and the timing right my maf and my injectors are calibrated to eachother i just need to find out what pressure to run the fuel at?

I don't know what your running but I got my car back Friday from the dyno shop and they set the fuel pressure at 38psi. Hope that helps.

i dont know anyone that uses them thats why i asked..lol
was i right about how they install? like an o2 sensor?

wide bands are very good for tuning.

yes it's like an 02 sensor. in fact it IS an extra 02 sensor.

you would need to weld an extra bung hole <-- ya ya "LOL" onto your exhaust.

e3sean · February 10th, 2008, 01:32 PM

ok well i will have to put that on my list 250 is a stretch right now but i dont want to get a cheap one and it looks like i will be spending 250-300 on that lol

HMUSN · February 10th, 2008, 01:34 PM

make sure you get a wide band not a narrow band.

narrow bands are a light show.

e3sean · February 10th, 2008, 01:36 PM

lol ya thats what i was reading lol

TurboLX · February 10th, 2008, 01:36 PM

lol thats a good point hmusn, light show

you can get a uego wideband for about $250

e3sean · February 10th, 2008, 01:39 PM

i will make that investment.. how do you adjust your air/fuel mixture? it is with your fuel pressure?

HMUSN · February 10th, 2008, 01:43 PM

timing and spark.
