Default Bayjoo chip, what CO % should it run at?

As above, my plugs are biscuit brown (very light brown) so thinking it isn't rich enough, does anyone know what a bayjoo stg3 chip should run at, or what would be a sensible level?


Cheers

my chip was running 6.8% CO@ idle when it went in for its MOT

we have since turned it down to 4.5% CO @idle but im gonna book the car in for a setup so it is running 100%.

about 2.5% on most of em iirc... deffo check with whoever sold u the chip tho.

also doing a plug check at idle tells you naff all mate, only way it'd mean something is if you did a plug chop from a full on "give it some beans" situation... which is not a good idea ona turbo motor.

DO NOT just mess with the base multiplier willy nilly!!!! it effects fuelling throughout the whole map not just idle

mine is 3.5% at idle on greys - nms mapped

re your plug colours - do you run an octane booster?

jim if ya dont stop talking shit i am gonna end un kick you geeky head in

stu said it was shit cause it was rich low down and lean at the top due to the engine spec you thick wanker

he also said he dont think its a ahmed chip but on all the ahmed chips ive seen they are similer as have the same sticker on i with a similer code ending in 803


so go and fuck your self, im not selling the chip and ive not got a clue where it is

im not the poor gypsy whpo sells things he dont even own and yet still dont have the money top pay for the stuff even though you got soooo much money

how about YOU stop talking shit yeah

you dopnt have to pretend ya got money mate, if ya have then ya have, selling other peoples things to get money aint the way and dont think i thought it was funny either

you sold it for over a tons yet you cant afford to pay keith his 20 quid he sold it to me for

i was always told that most tunners set the c/o very rich? as the rich mixture protects the pistons, is that right?
my plugs are just about blackwith the evo chip in as set by m.s.d and the exhaust is also sooty black
