But we arn't talking about 1400rpm in 5th? We are talking about normal driving conditions; keeping up with traffic which may mean 0psi-2psi of boost.

Tune these area's to as lean as they can go (sure reduce a little response but who cares) and you WILL pick up fuel economy. Why tune light/part throttle for maximum throttle response.

Not arguing discussing.

I think I have simply missunderstood your line of thought or missed a prior post or something :(

The PFC's closed loop is closed loop, being 14.7:1, you cannot make it run leaner even if you wanted to. Tweaking of the inj. map is really all you can do, this attempts to bring afr's closer to the closed loops target afr.

Settings 1

"O2 Feedback"

Default is 1.047 lambda ie; 15.3 A/F ratio = around 1 volt on the lambda sensor output

Change it to whatever you like as long as the narrow and slow lambda sensor can read it

Tip, lean it out at pre boost rpm (load) and use the acceleration enrichment to get the throttle response

:) cheers :yes:

Im lucky because i can flick a switch and have a totally different Map for max performance or economy,Changes on the fly instantly.

I reckon you have 2 maps, one for "max performance" and one for "poorer performance". The fuel ecomony shouldn't change if the car is driven the same. Efficient combustion for power, is efficient combustion for fuel ecomomy.

Placebo effect, you flick the switch on the ECU for fuel economy and the brain gets switched at the same time. Hence better fuel economy.

The best fuel economy switch is the one under your right foot.

:sweat: cheers :(

PS; yes I have tested it, I set up a car some years ago with an economy/power switch (that did nothing). After a month of testing (the owner thought the switch leaned out the mixtures), bingo the economy position used 12% less fuel. You should have seen his face when I showed him an unconnected switch.

    • I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do
    • Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.
    • R34 RB25de Neo by the way ^ 
    • Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
