just a quick question.

i had my 2.1 zt setup on megasquirt at northampton motorsports, they set it to run a bit rich untill i have covered 1000 miles as it was a newly built engine.

had this done about 6 months back.

question is its been troubling me since i got it mapped by northampton is that im not happy with the torque on the car it just dont go as quick as it should? its running a new turbo technics stage 2 hybrid turbo,

boost is set curently at around 12 psi for now.

my main concern is the acceleration is very poor concidering its a 2.1 zt?
anyone shed any light what i could maybe check or why the acceleration might be poor.

ive had a drive of my mates standard 2.0 mondeo and its about same torque?

somethinks surely wrong? would megasquirt cause this'?>

anyone else on here with zetec turbos comment on there torque, as i know mines loseing power on pulloff for some strange reason.

MS will not cause this mapping and engine issues will cause this

If im reading correctly then your on a base map(so to speak) for running in purposes??. You've pretty much answered your own question with they set it to run a bit rich . So to answer yoiur question your car needs the mapping finalised.

Ginge !

why would they set it up to run rich

sorry but why set it up wrong cause its running in,,,,, ok im not a mapper but why fit the wrong map,,,,

it's all relative. It probably runs rich to be safe, before time is spent getting it perfect.

if its got the same torque as a n/a mondeo its running zero boost, surely???
