I don't think the balance tube would make any difference to speak of on this as far as AFR is concerned at least above idle.

Yep you would be correct, but a single plane intake only needs 1 o2 sensor.


Apparently I thought I was quoting BBM's post. shruggy Oops..

What kind of induction is Bad340fish running?

Kevin


Single plane indy intake for W2 heads. Its got lots of camshaft so it has a lot of reversion which makes a mess of the intake at low flow scenarios. Its port fuel injected so the fuel part is consistent but the airflow will cause variances. I knew that happened and have seen several cases of it but I didn't realize it would be so much. The amount of fuel feeding the two banks can be very different at low rpm and low load. Like I said before once you get tipped into the throttle and the RPM comes up it all falls into line.

Joel, they make a nice digital gauge that runs two sensors but that may not be the look you want with your coupe.
