PSI 3 shows lambda, a lambda of 1.0 is stoich, smaller numbers indicate richer, larger numbers mean leaner. See below

0.79 11.63
0.80 11.80
0.81 11.92
0.82 12.06
0.83 12.21
0.84 12.36
0.85 12.50
0.86 12.65
0.87 12.80
0.88 12.94

From Link ECU manual:

<600 <1% >15:1
720 1% 14:1
760 2%
800 3%
840 5% 13:1
860 6% 12:1

Not quite sure if i get it.

Readings at the PSI3 are at closedloop 1.00
driving it goes betweens 0.xx and 2.xx (rarely)
most of the time i read somthing like 1.66 on full throttle
The car is running full decat, GT-spec header inclusive uppipe, vf23 @ 0,9bar till 5000 rpm.
(the car has an knocklink fitted and no knocking at all)

need to know wich figures are good under full throttle.

Exclamation

0.76 is the richest the ECU will read AFAIK.

On over run my PSI 3 reads over 1.67

0.76 is rich

1.67 is lean.

PSI3 shows readings under all circumstances closed and open loop, John you quoted mv from a narrow band, PSI reads the pseudo wide band.

The readings are the same as Deltadash would show. As Nathan mentioned 0.76 lambda is as low (rich) as it will read, in practice the afr is richer than that although I have found that this is only a general guide and is not particularly accurate.

BTW the rst of my table is below ..

1.30 19.08
1.40 20.55
1.10 16.20
1.15 16.90
1.20 17.60
1.25 18.40
1.30 19.10
1.35 19.80
1.40 20.60
1.45 21.30
1.50 22.10
1.55 22.80
1.60 23.50

I am puzzled though, I thought from the username it was a MY99? Obviously not if the numbers are over 1

Talking

it's a wrx01 from a friend of mine.
That's why i couldn't understand the way 'AFR' was shown at the PSI3. (And it still confuses me, but hey it's not my ride )
