Installed a Air/Fuel ratio meter into my wrx... still have to fiddle with it a bit to get it right though

Heres a video of it in action

What's the condition of your oxygen sensor?? If the sensor isn't working properly then your fancy pants new meter won't be accurate. Looks good though!!

[Guest lan_killa]

still the original sensor in there as far as im aware... may replace it with a wideband at some stage

By 'pull the rear seats out' you mean actually remove them, or pull the little tag thingy?

Sedan? or Wagon....

If you have a parcel shelf I assumed it was a sedan and in that case I mean remove them from the veehickle.

[Guest boostin]

Sedan. Two 12mm bolts and the base comes out. 2 or 3 12mm bolts and the back lifts up and off. Just note the hook things at the top of the seat back that it hooks onto when it comes to refitting it.

Sedan, they come with a little tag thingy to pull them down so the boot opens up into the car... for long things like skiis and **** I assume.

is that one of the jaycar kit ones? Pretty ofar I recken.

[ODB]

lol bet that sensor drives you fukn nuts after a few drives @ night!

Nice work though.

[aim]

It probably looks brighter than it is, also he could also put tinted glass over it so they weren't so bright.

[Guest lan_killa]

Yes its a jaycar kit

I havnt found them too distracting yet... as I have an after market momo wheel, im fairly tall and sit upright I cant see the majority of the LEDs i just see the bottom half a mm or so of them

is it accurate? seems to be all over the show.

[Guest lan_killa]

when its cold its all over the place, but once its had a goodish run it seems to settle and give the expected readings

[Guest keltik]

Seems to indicate what id expect to see. Lean when coasting and a rich spike when you change gear (BOV atmospherically vented im guessing) or get on boost.

[Guest lan_killa]

btw Red = lean, yellow = rich. What im seeing is lean in over run, and rich when cruising and under power. Im running a PossumLink ecu which hasnt really been tuned for my car and runs fairly rich most of the time, also no afm to get confused by the venting bov

[Koom]

It'll be showing rich for just about everything richer than 14.7:1 which you'd hope your car is running when under load and probably at cruise with the Possumlink. It should be down around 12.5:1 to 10:1 but the narrowband sensor will not be able to show this other than "rich"

It shows lean on overrun as the injectors should be shut of (if throttle is closed) and basically just pumping air. On a wideband it often shows up over 100:1 on overrun because the sensor is picking up nearly zero combusted carbon products.

in conclusion its a waste of space?

I vote put it on the front of your grill and be a technicolour KITT/Hasslehoff combo!

Yeah but...........yeah but..............ummmmm ahhhh you get pretty lights to look at!
