Any one else running lean after HSR install?
Of all the StealthRam subjects on this forum, I havent seen this come up yet so maybe Im the only one. Ever since I installed the HSR on my Formula, my car has been running very lean. Regretfully, I didnt buy the rails with the adjustable regulator because of lack of cash, shoulda saved a little extra. Anyway, Im getting very low voltage from the O2, its jumping in the neighborhood of 0.1 to 0.5 V, and the sensor itself is a very light grey color.
The car generally runs like sh*t. A custom EPROM is on the way, Im just curious if anyone else has had this problem.

I did get the afpr, but, it's almost freakin impossible to get too. Plus my guage won't fit, the fitting is too big.
But, so far it doesn't seem to run too bad, in fact it's killer up top.

I dont have an adjustable regulator, so mine has no adjustment screw. I cant up my fuel pressure, and I think thats the main reason Im running lean.

I just put a MiniRam on my 89 Formula 350 with a Paxton S/charger. I have a very lean condition now. I have the adjustable fuel reg. but can't get it staight. It's so bad it pops back theu the S/C when I try to pull off. Waiting on a chip from TPI. Right now I've got a mess. They say the MAF can't handle the airflow
