Yes, but mine is not covering the entire length. Still a good idea to keep it as far away from the soft aluminum a/c lines as possible.

Well, for some reason at around 30% throttle position (28% to 35%) the car leans out and the computer adds fuel and turns the LTFT's into positive. Then when I go WOT it throws extra fuel into the mix and I get misfires. When the LTFT's are 0 or negative, the AFR is perfect. May have to ask Arno if he can disable the LTFT's.

I'm kind of glad I don't have an AFR gauge. I don't get sooty tailpipes, but man, does it ever drink fuel when I run it up to redline.

It seems the LFX engine takes well to the IPF system, I'd guess.

Right now I'm trying to get my tune nailed down for my mods. Also sent Arno some information, looks like the MAF sensor is off, its saying 150 gpm is going in but there is more air in the system than that and adding more fuel. Its only at the 90 to 170 gpm range that its doing it, all other ranges are good. Hopefully this can get rid of the stalling issue.

I replaced my MAF after install but it was because my idle was bouncing all over. The MAFs are a definitely a weak point in the v6. The V8 MAF has an acknowledged weak version and from what I have seen I would bet the V6 MAF does too !

Today my MAF read over 2500 GPM, but the 75 to 150 range is reading lower than what is actually going in there, might be from the Boost Recirculation Valve. The car only stalls out after the car has been warmed up though, so its probably something with the tune.

Got a new tune from Arno and test drove it, its getting there, he said that the problem is the computer self-adjusts too much and its prevent too much idle torque and it needs that extra torque to spin the supercharger. When you have the A/C on and bogs the system down. I keep sending him info, hopefully he can figure something out.

I took her for a quick drive after the new tune and the boost started building up at 4000 RPM's this time for some reason, don't know why. At 7000 RPM's my MAF was reading 3500 CFM, not bad for a little V6.

Got another new tune at lunch today and drove it to work and back, no stalls at all and I had the A/C on. Only place its having a hiccup is at 30 mph when coasting to a stop, it dips to 500 RPM but no lower. All other stops are flawless. For those counting, this is my 4th custom tune in 2 weeks.

My AFR is at 11.5 at WOT, my LTFT's are settled at -1%, now I'm just waiting on my ported manifold to get back.

Who's doing your manifold?

Mace, for the 3rd time. First 2 manifolds the filling came out and got stuck in a runner. This 3rd one is made purely for forced induction and should hold up.
