So i finally got the innovate wideband going, and after i calibrated it it reads that im like 9 - 10 at idle, 10 - 12 at 1/4 to half throttle, and then if im full throttle i shoot to 13's 14's which is insane and i have to fix this.

I think my emanage is futzin up. When i plug into it i cant get any rpm readings or injector cycle duties. Im guessing my GTS injectors mixed with a new fuel pump is whats causing the 9 afr, but 9??? could that be correct? would gts injectors do that to a stock motor? thats funny as hell. I guess it makes sense. Hopefully after i figure out whats wrong with the emanage ill be able to get this thing working a little less opposite.

When i let off the throttle fully after giving it gas it stays around 13 - 15, this is good, and it runs awesome during this time. Does anyone have a quick guide to beginnning to tune a car? just like a quick. WOT w/ turbo should be this, 1/4 throttle should be this 0 throttle should be this, 3/4 should be this, and idle should be this.

If i just knew those positions i feel i could get a good base for a professional to work with.

Your boosted tps wont mean much you could have 8 psi at 50% as well as 100% and at cruise at 50% you would want 14.6 - 15.0 a/f but 50% on boost you would want 11.2 - 12.0 depending on boost, timing, vvti etc.

Reset the ecu and get the car tuned asap

some guesstimates
Idle - light load cruise maybe 100mmhg -> 14.5 - 15.0
50 - 0 mmHg -> 12.5 - 13.0
1 - 10 PSI -> 11.2 - 12.0

While completely letting off the throttle the injectors will be off so a/f should be at 21.0 or leaner. (The innovate with the gauge switches from a/f to a % so you will see very high numbers)

thank you sir, you are the man.

so i opened up the engine ecu box today and realized that the brown wire (rpm) from the emanage was disconnected. After soldering and retaping the car started driving 100% better. God i love having a wideband. It really is the most important gauge in a tuned turbo car.

Its still running 9:1 at idle though, and pulling less vac than normal. But the idle isnt rough anymore. 10:1 - 12:1 for 1/2 throttle under boost and about 14.7 - 15.1 for slight throttle under 2 psi.

When i get to full boost and start climbing rpm's it leans toward 13ish so im going to have to add some fuel there, Emanage isnt too bad for low boost. Im wondering if i should bother with the pressure sensor? Can someone entice me some more and convince me to buy it?

I havent found the Greddy pressure sensor nescessary for less than 12psi on the 1ZZ with a GT28R.

You should do a ThrottleCalibration on the E-manage.
