I believe my sensors are ok..they tally with the readouts i get from emissions tests. The 160g / sec equals 24lbs a min of air..maf goes to 35lbs , no prob there then. The car runs OK now but only reaches 110. So.. it runs very smoothly, idles fine..but does need a tune/injector constant table update... I think what you said about open loop and closed loop running is proved by this. Personally i prefer to have to drive slowly for a while with the 19's than have the 17's and the risk of overheating and engine failiure when overtaking at high rev's in 3rd...G.
ok quick update. the 19's have been in for two whole months. The car runs very smoothly. Top speed is now easily reached. The ecu does not seem to have a problem coping. Foot down acceleration in 5th is as responsive as it ever was. That said..i have now bought an ecu from an svt and i'm going to fit it and see if it makes any difference to the running of the car. By the way; the lean codes have not come back since christmas. Make of that, what you will..(no point getting brow beaten again)...cheers G.
