Anyone help me out? I am running rich as shit on my speed6. Only mod I did was the HKS BOV. How can I go about troubleshooting this w/o a boost gauge. Don't have the money and I want my A/F's to get back to where they are supposed to be. Please help I am in the Independance South area and need to assistance if possible

 

make a boost leak tester like i did....cost me 3 bucks. get a 2 inch pvc end cap, and a 2 inch female adaptor and screw them together. Drill a hole in the cap...and force thread an air line fitting in there. Then all you do is put it where your maf or intake is. Take an air compressor and regulate it to 15psi or so and plug it into the fitting. The piping will pressurize and you will hear any boost leaks hissing. I will help you do it if you would like to drive to hampton....send me a pm if you have any questions

 

Is it rich when you shift and/or let off the throttle (blow-off) or ALL the time?

 

all the time

 

are you recirc or vta I would definately reccomend keeping it recirc cuz everyone running vta is encountering problems

 

had in VTA but put back in recirc gained 30 hp and 30 tq from doing that and reseting the ecu but it still feels like there is a loss of power. Maybe I can get with you sometime this week to test out your boost tester. I have duty tommorow or I would try tommorow Thanks for the help guys

 

how rich are you running?

if its lower than 14.7 than you should be good unless your worried about the gas?

 

its running from 11.7 where I get plenty of power down to 10.5 where I still get power and then runs as low as 9.1. need more air for my fuel! ARRRR

 

i run in the 13's normally and anywhere from 10.5-12 during boost. When i shift if drops into the 10's though.

 

Eek....yeah that does suck. If it's doing that under load, then the BOV shouldn't be affecting it. I dunno, there must be something else you changed recently causing it.
