well so far after my flash my AFR's are actually about 1/2 more RICH and in some situations my car will actually dip into the 9's for A/F....... that NEVER happened to me before....NEVER. i also get some sort of cut again now if i go WOT in 5th or 6th gear. not from low RPM either i can be rolling at 4k RPM in 5th, then stab the throttle it will start to pull, then right at the top of my spool up i get some kind of cut. the boost is actually spiking lower than it was during winter too. i only spike to like 22-23psi, during the cold winter months my spikes went as high as 26-27psi and as long as the temps were above 35 degrees i got no cut. this makes me want to agree with laloosh. i think the car is now calling for too much fuel making it cut. it pisses me off thats for damn sure. i'm putting all these mods on....for what, to make the car run like shit ?!

I don't understand that at all. why would it be cutting?

I knew it was going to richen up the mixture though. you don't fix a lean condition by changing the grading scale.

i have no idea why i have logged the cut several times and it looks good, then just cuts with no warning.

i got reflashed today and i didn't see much change at all. i'll be getting the pump installed tomorrow since they had to overnight it. my afr's were still in the 10's and it follows the commanded afr on the nose.

Well good news for you. Hopefully, you will see something different with the new pump.

cmd and act are the same thing. Log commanded from something other then the mazda pid.....

^ Interesting you say that because I use the mazda specific PID's and my actuals and command afrs are usually spot on but at times can be about .5 different. If they are the same I don't see how that would happen...

Example:

loosh is right, i changed it this morning and the cmd under the mazda pids is the same as actual, i didn't realize that. anyways my car is at the dealer getting fixed now, did some logs this morning prior to new pump then i'll do some after. in the mean time i am stuck driving a slow mazda 6i with steering as sloppy as a whore in manhattan.

correct commanded and Actual under the Mazda are the same reading, i should have said from the non specific Mazda pids!!

well now we won't know if the commanded are different from before and after the flash unless someone else with a dashhawk gets the reflash done.

im sure that will happen

well it was a valid effort lol

You have no old commanded logs ?

probably not. i'll have to look. we could probably just get someone without the reflash on a speed6 to log their commanded afr and compare that way.
