Boost but No CEL, No missing link, stock ecu?
hi,
today i drove my civic d16Z2 to testrun it, it was supposed to go till the Ceck Engine Light @ 0 psi ?
i have an FMU, but no missing link. (on purpose to hit the CEL) i m going to chip the ecu next wednesday. but i thought with an fmu, and no missinglink, there wont be boost.
but at first i got 3 psi, and then 4,5
so i stopped!
my a/f gauge was in rich, but ofcourse i couldnt see how rich...
how can i have boost?

i know the turbo is spooling, and that was what i was testing tillt 0 psi, but i assumed there would be a CEL,
i also assume that i have a stock ecu.
but why doesnt the ecu show a CEL?

Re: Boost but No CEL, No missing link, stock ecu?
really? 11psi stock internals?
what kind of fuel lines you have? from your fmu to the fuel rail? im affraid mine wil explode like an egg in a 1200 watts microwave
but the ecu needs to see it for a few sec? hmm ok. that will explain all.
do you have an 12:1 FMU? and whats your a/f ratio ? at differnt boost pressures
i only have a narrowband lambdasensor hooked to an a/f gauge, so its not accurate

i got a z6 with eagle rods and spr pistons. but i was running the same boost on my mini me with 10.5 compression for 1.5 years with no problems
just stock fuel hoses. they wont blow i've never had that happen ever.

man 11 psi with an FMU is crazy man.. stop messing around
im going for 10 psi. have it chipped and dyno run it.
but dayly drive it on 5 psi
but i stil have a stock clutch, so i dont know if it wil hold ahhaha. i guess ill replace it for anotherone till its wasted (6puck or whatever)
