Well I've got my car running pretty smoothly now. Just got a few more questions before I start to play hard with it....

1) I know it redlines at 7500rpm...just a question...I reved mine a little past that (just one time) all the way almost to 8000rpm...does this mean I don't have a rev limiter??

2) Car has a A/F gauge that always sits to the far right showing green but it's in the far "rich" section of the gauge. (Autometer CF Series)

3) Car seems to be running rich, slight smell of gas, yet while accelerating that gas smell goes away and I don't smell it until the turbo spools down.

Thats it...I've tried finding the answers but never found anything useful.

most if not all turbo cars (that have any after market parts) run rich. a little rich is ok.

i ahve the exact same a/f gauge.When my car idels it sits with 3 orange on(stock) LIl gas then its in the rich.From what i was told it should be like that.Rich is better than lean.Belive me.Also where did u hook up ur a/f gauge wire(purpleone).Should be on the ecu white wire nuber 19 i belive.If u ran it out side u can be getting interferance.
