2013 challenger with CAI, increase fuel at WOT?

Post by lloydhanna12 »

I have read some in the forum about cars running lean with CAI's. Should I raise the fuel 5% throught the WOT
range? I'm running the 93 octane on my challenger. Its a manual transmission if that makes a difference. Ive looked pretty good on ST knock. Only about 2-3. Clears quick. No LT. The only time I saw more knock was WOT in 6th gear from about 100-120 mph.
I logged some ST up to 6. LT to 1. It went up and down 3-4 times in that speed range.

Mike, Please take a look. 2013 Challenger RT Classic 5.7L Manual. Up to 120MPH. ST & LT look good 1st - 5th gear. I get some rare ST but clears fast. When I got to 6th gear , ST got up to about 6 and LT 1. Went up and down a few times. I increased fuel this afternoon like you said. I went to rich side 5% on all 3 RPM ranges. I'm not sure when I can do another 100MPH + run, but I'll log it when I do. Thanks again for all your support. I just want to make sure I'm running good. Also going to install a catch can, its on the way.

The modification I did to 93 Octane is +5 Throttle. Speed limiter to 190, set tire size.

I have a K&N CAI, Flowmaster American Thunder Catback.

Is there a certain number of times you can modify a tune without reloading your original or resetting the default on the tune ? Or can you just continue to modify as needed?

going over logs is time consuming, its rarely something we can offer to do regularly.

if you are seeing KR, try better fuel, and add a little fuel until it goes away.

Make sure you have a catch can installed as well, or it will never go away.

Thanks

I am getting some ST knock. Mostly at higher speeds in 6th gear when rpm is low. If I down shift to 5th it clears up. I tried increasing fuel to 5% rich but it got worse. I use 93 octane exxon. I also installed a catch can today. I'm thinking about switching to the 91 octane tune. How much power difference between trinity 93 tune to 91 tune still using 93 octane gas ?

i just got my Trinity T 1000 and i'm trying to figure out how to get it to pick up that i have a CAI. It's only showing 91 and 93 octane. Not cai 93 octane or cai 91 octane. Is that a option on the Intune only?

From what I have read not all vehicles get a tune for cai's. I'm guess the cars computer adjusts good enough for the mod on some cars. My 2013 Camaro ss doesn't have that option either.
