boosting24/7 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Same I am after one for a starlet gt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Don't think there is one. You have to follow the recommended instructions as given by the manufacturer. Believe the bosch sensors need to be located 34-36 inches downstream of the turbo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 If its wideband then it's a bung welded in 36~" away from turbo, sits just above 90 degrees to stop moisture damage to the sensor. Mine sits behind the gearbox.You'll need to trail the wires away from moving things drive shafts and steering rack then find your acc live and earth. Job done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mitsuruki Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 allright now i placed the air/fuel filter green to oxygen sensorblack to groundred to ignation 12 volt now the problem is the pointer keeps going up down middle stops then up then =/= Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5T4R7ET N/A Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 ^^ which Air/fuel ratio setup do you have? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mitsuruki Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 narrowband http://www.amazon.com/GlowShift-Tinted-Color-Needle-Ratio/dp/B007GEBHMS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1367183091&sr=8-1&keywords=glowshift+7+color+air%2Ffuel hope someone knows how to fix it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mitsuruki Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 when i turn ignitation on its goes up and down and when im driving it does the same .. im thinking maybe a wire is wrong Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danb Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 You do realise that a narrowband will be very inaccurate/pointless? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Need a wide band mate... Narrowband will be about as good as a chocolate teapot.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boosting24/7 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Dam it, I've just bought a prosport air fuel gauge, will that one be pointless too.. I am useing a jam racing ecu, just want to check the fueling right Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Weyro Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 If its a wideband gauge it will be useful Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turboloon Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 YOU NEED SOMETHING LIKE A AEM,INNOVATE,ETC,I HAVE A INNOVATE ONE VERY ACCURATE:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am useing a jam racing ecu, just want to check the fueling rightJust get it checked on the rolling road mate if its running a little lean then get an adjustable FPR and get it set up right ... Better to be safe than sorry:D Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Better to be safe than sorry:D I have no money to get it on the rolling road, as I've just bought and fitted a forged engine and lsd box to my starlet , I really want to take it to japfest, do you think it will be ok driving there and bk ok?

5T4R7ET N/A Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 if its moving when your driving then it should the following when fully warm, idle - OPTIMAL to LEAN when driving normal ( off boost) then lifting completely off throttle it will flick to RICH then LEAN cruising light throttle it will be LEAN full throttle should be RICH (on boost) if this is what you are getting then the gauge is working as it should. as above you really should get a wideband setup as narrowband is a very basic reading which wont help you find out how the car is running accurately Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 On a jam ecu? Yes it will be fine for that..I have no fuelling mods at all and I'm running .95 bar on a blitz access ecu.. If your worried about it then just set your actuator or boost controller, depending on what you run to stock boost level!More than safe then dude Quote Link to post Share on other sites

More than safe then dude Thanks for this it has put my mind to rest, il probably set it the same as urs, I will be running adjustable actuator Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Just run the ecu below fuel cut and it'll be fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
