Mid to high 12s seem kind of high no?

 

I think it is a bit lean but i don't think it is at a dangerous level yet. Especially at only 7 lbs of boost but I could be wrong.

 

thats too lean for me. id richen it up personally

 

Thanks for the input everyone.

I have a plan and we shall see what my weak base SC puts down

 

Mid to high 12's is perfectly fine with these types of superchargers, so 12.2 to 12.3 is fine IMO...
I ran my comptech non aftercooled kit when I had it at 8.7 pounds of boost and I was runnning high 12's in vtec.. I ran that way for 2 years daily driven and thousands of miles with zero problems.

I now currently run 18 pounds of boost on the same bottom end (Been boosted for close to 30K now) but with my Inline Pro turbo kit and I see AFR's in the 11.6 to 12.1 range normally.

 

^Sweet. Thats good to hear! Mine was all messed up and actually ran mid 15's for a little while. Was very dumb but engine never had an issue somehow haha. Some engines these cars have!!

 

I concur.

Your great where you are Johnny, but if you want to experiment leaning out a bit to see if you make more power, I would feel comfortable doing this as long as your above vtec afr is steady bellow 13's. Lower 12's is optimum and gives you a little leeway on the colder days. Unless you want to fiddle with your tune on the street depending on the seasonal temps, your going to have to find a happy medium, which my suggestion would be low/mid 12's on a 50-60 degree day like current. Ignore the afr spikes around vtec (unless they are touching mid 13's, which may trigger some slight detonation) If you take it out on a cold winter day in the 30-40's you will be in the upper 12's ...and on a hot summer day you will be mid 11's, this is my best estimation from my experience with a target in the low 12's about this time of year. From the coldest to the warmest months, you will fluctuate about a full point.

 

Johnny post up your dyno and specifics.

I had baselined there 4 months ago and the temp was 66.92, and 57% humidity and only difference besides the SC, was 10W-40 oil now instead of 0W-30 oil and 1 range colder plugs and the delta was ~92 whp and ~48 wtq.

I assume that's probably average/typical?

 

Did you play around with your afr at all? If so what kind of gains did you see and what ratio did you end up with?
