Paul I would seriously invest ina wide band. Especually with all the parts you have, and plan on doing... Cheap insurance, and honestly a must. I ran DSM injectors on my turbo civic, and I had them ballanced and cleaned by RC engineering. Same people the make the RC injectors. IT cost 100 bucks again cheap insuance. Turn around is quick too!

I have a zietronix already installed. I am still in Kuwait. Upon my return I will surely do some logs and tuning. I just wanted to get your opinions.

The problem all started when I installed the 10.5, header and O2 housing. Prior to that the car ran great. The only tune in the car right now is the mail in dynoflash. I listed my modes when I sent it in. I have since done a lot more so ultimately yes the tune is off. My AFC is running flat....aka no adjustments what so ever.

The crazy thing is the car put down 320whp on a dynopack dyno when I was in maryland last year. It had the stumble then too. annd get this....It is still on stock cams. I wonder what cams and a FMIC will bring?? hmmm.

AFC = Air Fuel Controller
AVC-R = Actuator Valve Controller Type R aka Electronic boost controller

Get your acronyms right!

If the AFC is zeroed, it won't hurt anything at all.

Does a Dynapack read like a Dynojet?

Poor connections would show up as much worse issues - the most common being a MAF CEL. The car would not pull well under boost, but it would run.

A Dynapack usually reads similar to Dynojets. Dynapacks often times read a little bit higher though. So if you want the highest #'s to impress people get your dyno #'s on a Dynapack
That 320whp Dynapack would easily be under 300whp on Buschurs dyno.

I'm hoping to get mine on a dyno before spring.

That's what I thought. I'll be on a Mustang Dyno before April and I'd like to see around 320-330 awhp. What is the 'correction factor' for going from a Mustang to a Dynojet? NASA uses Dynojet as a standard, so I need to make sure I'm in compliance...

I seen those afc's cause weird issues before. Most likely not the issue, but if your not using it, its one thing to eliminate.

I didn't know there was a power limit in TTA. I thought it was a mod only point system and TTS/TTU/TTR was hp/weight. What's the compliance # for TTA?
I think I have an idea on correction factor, but I'll try and double check. Don't want to post bad info

There isn't one for TTA, but if I go below 8.7:1 I would get bumped to TTU. There isn't a very good chance that could happen, but I'd rather not risk the season for it.
