did your cuts include the bumper (plastic), or only towards the top, taking away metal fender material?

Both. Just in case we end up staying with the 15"s we wanted to make sure we had lots of clearance - had we committed to 13"s I would have installed the flares without touching the fenders. But we cut away enough material to make up for the weight of the fiberglass flares.

thanks, that is helpful. I don't want to cut my fenders for the 13's unless I have to.

When we did the math for the 13" slicks, 20-9.5-13 (10.5" wide by 20" dia) we found that the car would hit the ground before it hit the stock fenders. In fact we were only going to be able to lower a .5" from where it is now and be able to maintain what we thought as enough ground clearance.

Your A6s are a little taller (20.9" for the 255), the rear should be fine, the front could be close under compression. If in doubt, pick up some bone yard fenders to hack up.

I'm probably going to raise it a 1/2" and see where that leads me. I'm also putting in the AOE front sway bar, that should help cut the roll just a little bit more.

Heading off to the dyno/tuner.

Then up to Toyota in the AM.

Hope we get it all worked out.

We had a combination of issues.... The fuel injectors were to big, and someone used the more is better method of tuning.

We installed new plugs and did a baseline run with the Camcon off, the ECU was just flooding the car. It was pulling max fuel trim, 40%, and it was still super rich. Turned the Camcon on for the next run and it was worse, they were adding fuel. The car did not want to idle, and was fouling the plugs. We can only assume it was tuned for FI, and never re-tuned after they pulled it. Shame, because they left power on the table.

Our tuner made a number of adjustments and actually got the AFR really good, picked up some power too. But in the end the ECU was still trying to pull fuel back due to the injectors.

Went to Toyota today and they replaced them with a OE set of Yaris injectors. The ones in the car were out of a 2003 Celica.

We recalibrate the Camcon to work with the smaller injectors, makes really good power now.

Heading up to Willow Springs now.

So looking forward to Saturdays practice and qualifying in the rain. I was able to score some "rains" from a buddy, which is just set of used Toyo R1Rs from his ST Civic. Not great, but unlike with the slicks I should be able to stay on the track.

Five cars in H Prod, going to be fun.

Sat:
8:00am practice
11:30am qualifying

Sun:
8:00am warm-up
10:35am race

SportsCar magazine is the official publication of SCCA -- he probably means that one?

Good luck this weekend, you're light, you'll do us proud out there!
