Glad to see you got that worked out, I really didn't know what to tell you. So, you've decided to keep the car constantly in open loop? I dunno if you've checked my thread, but closed loop is definitely an issue... I was also wondering, since you pulled O2 sensor 2 when you had your exhaust done... Wasn't your car constantly in open loop anyway?

Removing the after cat. O2 wont put you in open loop. But dissconnecting the manafold O2 will. I was still idling lean and had a rough idle after dissconnecting the O2. I added 20% fuel during idle and whenever runing out of boost. Its runing so much smoother now and I feel safer. The correct way would be to modify the O2 with the FIC. This would keep the CEL off. But I have no converter anyway, so it would still be on. Im sure mileage will suffer, but i would rather keep rings and pistons cooler with a richer mixture. |

Yes, that is how one of garms buddies runs open loop constantly. But it come with the price of a constant CE light.

There is already such a device, it is a narrowband simulator. You obviously need to have a wideband of your own to tune. But once you have the fuel tuned and the wideband still sees 11.* the narrowband simulator will tell the ECU that it is at 14.7 therefore not have the ECU going crazy.
Most in car widebands/managements have the ability to do such a thing. Check it out on most of the spec pages. I beleive both the FI/C the Uego and the emanage can do this, just alot of people never take advantage of it. That and a MAF clamp, you should be running CEL free. |

I recently have noticed a small problem with my cheap turbo. When the car sits overnight and U first start it up in the morning. If I just let it idle and warm up for a while I will get some white smoke coming from my exhaust when the engine starts to warm up. If I rev it up I get a little cloud of smoke. Once I start driving the smoke is gone and no more problem. I have removed my downpipe and have noticed some oil leaking from the turbo into the exhaust when the car sits and gets cold. I have also checked my oil level regularly and never noticed any oil burning issue. Even making 800mile trip there was no oil loss.
So I think its only a drop or two that leaks into the exhaust every night. It just really pisses me off though. I have done everything to prevent this. My coolant lines are connected and I have a turbo timer. I guess thats what U get for buying the cheap Chinese turbo. I hope it holds up through winter and mabe I will get a Garret next summer. Its 950$ compared to the 240$ I spent for my turbo. I wonder if I had a converter, mabe that would eliminate the smoke? |
