Did I lose power?

Frankie Figs · 11-20-2011, 10:52 PM

My car was running well and had steady AFR's in the 13.0 range. I changed my intake and my car started running closer to 12.0 and high 11's. So I removed fuel in those areas so the AFR's are more acceptable.

So, since I had to pull fuel does that mean I'm not making as much power in those areas? By the way, I'm running MAP based so there's no issues with MAF placement.

Thanks,
Frankie

what intake did you have before and which after? You can't really say that you lost power because you had to take away fuel, it doesn't really work that way.

I went from an Injen MR SRI to a DIY 3.5" with an AEM Dryflow filter. Here's a pic

I didn't think I would but the fact I had to remove 10% fuel made me think that maybe I did. The car feels stronger but I know the butt-dyno isn't accurate lol
