Yup… Wideband is post. Since it is single turbo, I def need the o2’s pre turbo to read each bank… To get an “accurate” reading. Even though it just gives me an average of 4 cylinders for a ballpark. Seems to get the job done for me though

i didnt think narrowbands like the pressure of being before the turbine either but it probably doesnt matter that much. i assume that as soon as it hits boost it goes into open loop?

i thought that with the extra pressure the sensor would read richer so you would just lean out the cruise afr which is a good thing provided the above assumption is met. 🙂

Agreed. Its been getting hot on some summer days man, you’re gonna want AC on those hot rainy days you just want to drive!

I really hope I’m back in Buffalo this summer with a chance to see this thing run.

What’s with the rear coil springs? Does the skinnier spring have a higher spring rate? If so I guess your looking for some hard launches.

I only put one of the new ones in. I have to weld in the spring mounts still. So right now they aren’t in there solid. The silver qa1s are the good ones. Hoping for some 1.5’s
