Title: AFR graph/curve
Post by: Manford on February 12, 2018, 07:46:21 AM
Can someone show me an ideal AFR curve/drop off over a WOT run?

I know its meant to start at 14.7 and taper, but how quick and to what?

Depends on octane, boost, and compression ratio.

Worst case (91 oct, stock compression) you should see below 12 by peak boost.

Stock aum, uk fuel 97ron,I’m down to 11 by 5k. Will post afr curve I have, currently has a big drop after 4k

anything richer than 11.5 is probably pointless (and might actually raise egts significantly from excess fuel burning in the exhaust stream)

Best bet is to start at 11.7/11.8 and only add fuel if you need to pull a lot of timing to prevent knock or regularly see very high IATs

YMMV, this is for stage 3 2.7t on US 91oct R/M running 22+ PSI

A stable (flat) AFR during WOT pull post peak boost usually gets me the best results.

Just saw this. If you aren't running significant boost, 12 is more than enough fuel.

Am I aiming for 11.7/8 flat across the wot run or still tapering to something lower?

anywhere around 11.8/12.0 is fine. flat is fine. If you aren't seeing significant knock and your timing looks good, you can go a bit leaner even. Only way to know for sure if your timing/fueling tradeoff is good is on a dyno.

97?  I thought BP was 98, Shell is 99?

Big drop?  Did you put this big drop in - or was it a file you found?

I stand corrected, BP Ultimate @98

Its a tweaked map from my car, taking info from others, but I realised this morning I was being a k**b and adjusting the timing in the wrong direction so my knock was getting worse not better.

If im aiming for 11.8/12 I think its more my early afr is high and then drops to what im aiming for.

Yes, that is far too late.

Don't understand? too late?

I need to drop my early AFR?

Yeah like nyet said earlier, your AFR should drop to between 11.7 and 12.0 when you hit peak boost. Looking at your engine load graph, you're around 13.9 when your boost peaks

This is not how gasoline engines work.
