i recently installed a turbo kit on my ka. i have all the necessary parts (injectors, fuel pump, ect) i got everything hooked up and the engine seems like it doesnt wanna idle iv changed the maf and it seems to idle better but once you hit the gas it fluctuates then wants to die i cant rev past 4000 without a nasty backfire. it seems like its running rich but on my af gauge(narrowband) it says optimal. its not throwing a c.e.l . im thinkin i may have some vaccum lines hooked up wrong but i followed a setup i found on a forum. Anyone have any ideas or anything id appreciate it

What are you using for engine management? Get a wide band.

you cannot expect an ecu to just know you put in larger injectors and a bigger maf...

iv had the ecu tuned for my entire setup...iv tried putting the stock ecu and injectors in unhookin the intercooler from the intake and seein if it would affect the idle but it stays the same and its not a bigger maf its a stock ka maf idk if that could be the problem but iv heard alot of people sayin the stock oil pumps in ka's are weak but i wasnt sure if theres anything else i should look at everyones telling me to just get a sr but i wanna do something different
