You shouldn't need to go F9 with an aftermarket fuel pump. But like Davie I have 3 settings also.
B9 T5 F6
B8 T6 F6
B8 T6 F7
For trackdays I go B9 T7 F7.
Interesting that Davie. When I first went 2+ a year or so ago I ran it at B9 T6 F9 because that's what I'd run Stage 1 at. It ran great but I was advised that the car would be running unnecessarily lean and that a lower fuel setting would cool things down a bit without affecting power. What Block do you use to assess the AFR ? I only look at CFs these days and these are much lower on F6 or 7 than on F9.
what quality fuel are you using? RON98?
Why are your fuel ratings so low? think mine are all set at 9
I use advanced measuring blocks and measure actual lambda values, the value at idle is 1.0 (14.71) or thereabouts values below one is rich and above is lean. if you multiply the value by 14.71 that will give you the Air - Fuel Ratio - a reading of 1 = 14.71 units of air to 1 unit of fuel. With F6 i was running around 0.75 - 0.80 at WOT which is far to rich whereas with F9 i was around 0.85 which is far better for performance. Car runs far better with F9 IMO
Cheers Davie
Basically if your EGTs are well into the late 900s I would be inclined to try and cool things down.
Davie have you logged your EGT's while running F9 at stage 2+? I'd have a look at them just to make sure you are not running too hot. Basically if your EGTs are well into the late 900s I would be inclined to try and cool things down.
