Intake, T body and elbow changed.

[THAITED]

I installed a Edelbrock intake, 78 mm BBK t-body/ elbow on my car. Now it goes lean at 4000k, 12.5-1 A/F. I need a re- tune right?

I also installed a 200 amp Power Master alternator. My car runs way smoother now at part throttle. No more miss firing at low RPM, how come? Have I been running my car with inadequate amp/voltag with the stock alternator?

Before running the PM alternator, my car ran like craps at part throttle even with the intake and elbow installed. BTW, I want to sell my Paxton S/C so I can get my Turbo. What is a fair price for the head units and bracket with no suuport equipment, thanks.

If it's the 03 and it's N/A that A/F is fine. I tuned for 12.5-13.0 when I was N/A. If the old alternator was dying it could cause issues. I've heard of bad alternators causing stalling issues and generally bad driveability.

Thanks I was talking about my paxton S/C one? I will take it in for a re-tune just in case.

Anytime you open up the air intake tract so the engine gets a bit more air it will cause stuff to change like the A/F ratio. You will need a retune to fix that. As far as the running better yes its prob cause of the newer ALT.

Yeah, you'll want to get it retuned. 12.5 is too lean for a blower motor.

Thanks again everyone. I want my Turbo.
