Ok i thought i would update this--- i got the wideband uego and the walbro 255 installed today---
at first i was shitting bricks because at idle the wideband goes to null--- i thought it was so extremely lean it wouldn't register LOL-- not the case. I guess they're known to go null at idle--makes sense
anyways, here are the results
at 1.1bar WOT i'm running 11.0 up to 12.4 from start to finish (typo)
At cruise speeds it ranges 14.7 up to 15.4
No cel's because I'm only 2% lean at WOT and like 8% lean off at cruise compared to OEM
tastey apples--- tastiest are the ones you work hard for. I have spent rediculous amount of time building this intake--- and it's still not perfect. I'm going to do some rotating and such and see if I can't get it puuurrrrrfect... it does move air and sounds greaaat. I'll post a video soon.
it's shaped like an s and the bottom of a cyclone-tornado--- hurricaines seem to do good with air, so why not model it after that
this is why it is different than those non working fuel saver tornado things. One, no metal crap will get sucked into your intake-- this intake takes advantage of the g-forces that found in cyclones as opposed to the tornado fuel saver which spins the air inside of the tube. With a turbo application, it's my opinion you can amplify that to the size of the entire intake system. So if you model the entire intake system after one "spin" of the cyclonic model you can successfully use g-forces to condense the molecules and start the spinning action of the air to reduce the drag on the turbo blades allowing for faster spool with cooler more dense air due to less friction. This would be acknowledged by the infamous howling sound of vortexing air. This is all theory of course because I don't have a wind tunnel to test only software and what i can research on the internet.
diagram of the logic
anyways, here's a pic of it, which does not do justice.
Here's a video of my boost gauge--- notice how quickly it "boosts" to desired PSI
