2.2 TII, 89 Chrysler LeBaron GTS.
[motor is not yet complete but I'm creating this thread so I will know what to buy and how to tune once it's done]
Venolias, .020 over. 2.5" exhaust. 555 tranny.
I am shooting for 20psi of boost. Entirely feasable, I must say. I want 13's.
I have made a pipe running from the stock I/C to the throttle body that has a cold start injector on it. I do not know what # it is.
I will have a hobbs switch, calibrated to come on at 13psi to activate the injector to gimme some extra juice when I hit boost.
If it's not enough, I'll get [i]another [\i]injector to come on at maybe 16psi for high levels of b00st.
But; what are your recommendations as to what I should get for a tuning device? I have an A/F gauge but I know they only so so much. And I hear EGT gauges basically show you if your engine is going to blow up or not.
A wideband sounds good, but I really don't know how they work. 14.7 A/F ratio is optimal but I don't know what's good and what's bad.
A few tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all for reading this.
