I agree about your idle wanting to be a higher afr, also at cruise you should have a higher afr than wot. I don't know what the flash set's the afr's at but it pulls like 8 degrees of timing. Your a/f sensor in your headers may very well be bad, my car was throwing crazy numbers at Charles until he put a new one in.

long delay, haven't had time to mess with the car, had a family emergency last week

today, driving back from lunch and heard a loud boom
well, turns out the sensor for the wideband basically blew out of the s-pipe
so now i have like a 2-3inch hole in my s-pipe
so the car is being dropped off saturday and wont be worked on until monday most likely

so i will mess with the car when i get it back
still running lean, boost still registering high
did notice the boost gauge needle fluctuating at idle, which im sure isn't normal

fluctuation is due to the exhaust leak. The engine is running a bit rougher.

I blew the supercharger pipe off the throttle body 2 weeks ago. Man that was scary.

when I lost the intake pipe, the supercharger was like 500 times louder....crazy...not to mention the loud bang and loss of power when it blew off. I thought I threw a rod or something.

:whew:
