Doubt about my A/F Ratio

Thats a bit rich at wot. The high afr during deceleration is normal. Once you hit idle our put load back on the car it should dip back down

Hey just to let you know and hopefully this information helps you. Sam@GTM has told me multiple times to not put full faith in cipher's AFR. He said it is good enough to give you a idea on your AFR but not to think that is the actual because the table in there that computes it, is not that great. Hope this helps with putting you at ease a bit

Thanks for this info.. Do you by any chance have an idea on what is the approximate difference between Cipher and the real numbers..??

Thanks again!

on my car and my Innovate AFR gauge ,, Cipher read about .3-.5 AFR richer depending on the RPM than the aftermarket sensor

example;
Cipher @ 7000 rpm = 12.9
AFR sensor @ 7000 rpm = 13.4

That's good to know.. Thanks for your input..

My Cipher reads around 10-11 @7000rpm so even with a .5 difference I'm still running rich @ WOT..

The sad thing is, there are no Dyno's in my country and no UpRev certified tuners.. How great is that?
