no pete, how is a datalogging cable going to give him acurate info about hsi AFR’s without a WB02?

Narrowbands are a general idea but would you trust your car with just a narrowband if it was modified way out of its realm when it came from the factory?

If his car was a stock turbo car to begin with id say its not as big of a deal becayse the ecu could at least compensate somewhat… but

A datalogging cable wouldn’t tell you anything about A/F ratios on a narrowband ECU car. He needs a gauge for the WB02.

this is true. Even stock the ecu doesn’t recognize O2 sensors for WOT fuel calibration. The signal is too narrow and only useful for idle and part throttle low load AFR monitoring. Pete… you should know this! You got spoiled with your Audi/VW with WBO2 from the factory.

you said it won’t tell you shit. which indeed it will. timing pull, knock count, IAT’s, etc, and etc.

i’m no tuner by any means but to say that if he he doesn’t have an AF guage a data logging cable is useless? come on now.

Stupid argument. The point is, LaDuke’s gonna have the fastest shit around and narrowband O2s don’t communicate A/F ratios.

im not sure i understand your logic, the GT series turbos arent just meant to make huge power, they are meant to be more responsive, spool up faster, and recover faster during shifts, why would you not want that in a daily driver. huge power drag cars spool time isnt as huge of a factor as they are always in the upper rpm powerband, so in reality it is most useful on daily drivers.

the GT30xx’s are used all the time in road race applications, of course not on the drag strip, they are fairly small compared to most of the size limitations of turbo classes.

your all fucking retarded. Not only did this spin out of controll off in left field with like 3 completely unrelated arguments, they already purchased a replacement so this thread should be locked.

Hasnt it been discussed that the classified section is the only place where mods should and can delete? Why didnt it happen here?

Everyone has to sound like they know everything about cars, money situation, friends situations, engine parts and what is the best thing to buy for everyone elses rides. WTF, who cares. If he or his friend wanted to put a fucking tractor trailer turbo on his car he can.

This should have been a simple, “I have what your looking for here is my reply” or “I know where you can find one…” and if you dont have any usefull information like I stated, there isnt a reason to lick “POST RELPY”
