ummmmmmm, did you wipe the end of the plugs off if so, how the hell are we suppose to tell anything? from what i can see though, looks pretty damn rich, was that from it sitting at idle, or did you turn the car off at the top of a run and then pull the plugs? that's the only real way to read the plugs.

you have to pull them immediately after wot. That means no letting the car idle. Rev it out to redline and as soon as you get there put the clutch in and shut the engine off.

i found out that this "Fse Boost control valve" is a fpr......


damn.....

i'v decided that i dont wanna go the fmu way....

i wish i could use uberdata but i have a european ecu.....
the problam with my ecu is that the injectors dont have 4 wires on the harness. (its like 1 wire has 1 & 3 injectors, and the other wire has 2 & 4).

i think i can swap my ecu to a p28 but is too much of a hassle..... im gonna need to copy the stock rom and the other problam is that its a different size or rom.(way bigger). and its' too complicated fo me to tune it from scrach.


what other options do i have?

lets say i'm gonna use the safc or the vafc what size of injectors i'm gonna need since my engine is a 1.4L ?
i know that my stock injectors are 240cc as other D16's. could it be that thay work in a different preuusre/pulse?

what other options do i got?

please help
