Lean running due to spool up ?
#1
Recently I had problems with the boost so I installed a bleedvalve to control it. But when ditching the solenoid and only using the bleedvalve to control the boost, the spool up time was much faster. When we did a DDash it gave a very poor mixture between 1500-3000rpm.
When I reconnected the solenoid and use back an orifice of 1.25 instead of the bleedvalve my peak boost was 1.25, and with the DDash it was back to 0.85-0.90lambde instead of 0.02-0.07lambda.
The conclusion of this was that when the turbo spool up time is quicker and you don't change the maps, it will run lean on that..
Am I right on this or am I tottaly wrong ????
I ordered now a control valve to control the boost instead of that orifice....

Agree with James.
On the other hand there is no real problem if your mixture is slight leaner below 2500-3000 rpms (no det etc problems in this area). Hope the experts will answer your question though!

Finnaly I got my hands on the Unichip software to check my maps out and geuss what : somewere between all the nulbers there was a zero, just on the revs were I was running lean, so replaced it by a number, go for a test drive and problem solved.
So when you map the car, check the maps three times, just forgot one number and almost blew up the engine...
