The log showed something around a steady 400 on the nb and the wb confirmed it being up in the 15's as I recall.

Appears to be super lean at idle and that will carry over to driving....my guess is find out why he has no fuel.  Perhaps the fuel pressure gauge is a cheapie, or its broken.

Hopefully the new chip matches the new injectors

Steve, the chip is burned for the new combo. He's doing a writeup on the mods by the PO. Will post when I get it. Bout 15.1 at idle for AF. Post the new driving log when I get it. Will ask about the fuel gauge. I ASSUME it's a rail mount.

Only thing I know from here is that there is  no use in driving it until he can get the fuel where it is supposed to be.  I would guess it is about 6 psi low, but that is just a guess

I'm pushing him to put a fuel pressure gauge on the pillar like the setup I had. He has the 3 gauge pod there now.

I'm confused.  Is this the car with Hooker headers on it, or not?

If it is, then he will have to drive it to get enuf heat on the O2, to work, so forget what I said about it needing more fuel at the moment altho I am sure it does if he put a 6262 on a chip burned for a 49.

1-Jeremy has stated they are Hooker headers.
2-I said previously the NEW chip and injectors are now installed and burned for the 6262. The PREVIOUS chip was burned for a 49.
3-With the NEW chip burned for the 6262 he said he still got KR...but not as bad. He did it on a whim and didn't record a file.

He sent me this file. I just wanted him to drive the car normally to see if the NB would wake up. He said he turned the fuel pressure up a tad. Looks like he had the WB on LC1. He has an AEM. Prolly why the WB isn't reading.

Looks like it woke it up.  With those headers he should run a heated sensor.  Guess it does not make a difference if he is using a 6.1 chip as it does not pay attention to the nb as far as I know.

With regard to the wb, Eric burns the chip to work with a given wb so it should be working if it was burned for aem.  you have to set the wb in pl to display it right.

It stays at 10.0 all the way.  He probably should go back on the fuel pressure some? Maybe? as it does not change, I am thinking it got disconnected

unconfuse me some.  Is the current chip burned for a 49 or for the new 6262?  If it is for the 49, then he probably should max out the wot fueling on the chip to get closer to a 6262

These people are getting scarier by the day smh

To clarify again, it's a 6.1 chip burned for the 6262. I think the rail fuel pressure gauge he has is fukd. He's ordering a new in car fuel pressure gauge. The file shows KR. I told him to park the car till the new FP gauge shows up.

I also wanna verify fuel pressure is rising 1 for 1 with boost...and I can't do that till he gets the FP gauge installed.

looks like the wide band was no longer working on that last long.  Nothing stays 10.0 without moving at all thru out the recording

He had it on LC1...he has an AEM. Might be the reason it didn't record correctly.
