I am currently running a 2.76 pulley with the other mods in my sig.
I recently installed a WBC and have been using its software to datalog A/F. I am noticing that at partial throttle (even with considerable boost) the PCM strives to keep the A/F at stoich. Only when the throttle position approaches WOT does the A/F drop to 11.5:1ish. I have experienced the same behavior with a custom Predator tune and a custom SCT tune.
It seems to me that there should be better control over the part throttle A/F ratios of these engines, especially when pullied. If the engine is seeing 5lbs of boost, the A/F should be starting to drop to say 12.5:1. When the engine is seeing 10+ psi, the A/F should be below 12:1. This should happen regardles of throttle position. Seems to me that A/F should be more a function of MAF, RPM, and MAP, ie load.
Can one of you experienced tuners come in here and explain what parameters go into commanding a certain A/F for varying part throttle load conditions?
Your expertise is greatly appreciated.
