Question

Hello John,

I am going to fit the Dawes Device and Dawes AFR Meter to my car, it's a MY00 uk car, standard engine with decat centre section Scorpion b/b.

It will not be going near a track but sometimes it gets some welly round the streets (private land of course),

Could you tell me what setting to set the AFR to please?
I am currently running standard 13/13.5psi and want to up it to 16psi safely Also does it need a fuel cut defender, or will my factory one cope with the extra boost?

All help an info needed.

Many thanks steven

16.5 PSI is fine without FCD - if your boost gauge is accurate. You could find fuel cut, turn it back until it doesn't fuel cut then another half turn. The AFR should light up the green or blue lights on full boost.

Thanks very much.

Is there any figures that you could give me to help, or is it a case of trial and error?

Or would it be easier to set it up on a rolling road?
