I bought a used AP from another member (thanks, LOLWOT!), and it arrived yesterday. I am itching to try it out on my MS6, but I felt I should make sure the car is performing correctly on the stock map first. I have an AEM CAI as my only current breathing mod, and I have never thrown a CEL.
I have a DashHawk and I had noticed that my LTFTs were a little high, so I thought maybe I should clean the MAF sensor and filter. Good intentions being what they are, I managed to get one of them accomplished (cleaning the MAF; it WAS dirty). I should also note that it did not appear as though there is any damage to the MAF or the housing. I disconnected the battery for a bit then drove the car conservatively for about 30 miles, and already my LTFT's were settling in at 14.1 under even light throttle. When coasting the STFT's would go to zero, and the LTFT's would go to about 10, but as soon as any throttle input was given it jumped back to 14.1. At that point I got impatient and drove it like I normally do, with basically the same results.
Now, by my understanding, my STFT's should become my LTFT's eventually; that is to say that if the ECU is adding fuel in the short term at between 0 and 5, eventually my LTFT's should reflect that and settle down to between 0 and 5, all other things being equal. However, I never see anything as high as a 14 on my STFT's so why am I getting that as my LTFT?
I don't have any logs to share at this time, but if I was to log this what PID's should I display? I was thinking RPM, STFT, LTFT, and Actual AFR? And does anyone think (or better yet, know) if this is an expected issue with the CAI?
