Oh ok... ya definately a dirty EGR.

Well it could be your EGR but if you installed the AFC and then noticed the idle dip, I would check your splices and you vac line. Make sure you are still getting ~-22 in vac on your guage. My car does have an idle dip when I first start it and it is already warm. This would not be an EGR...

Awwww s***! You know that some perv just is going to type 'kiddie porn' in Google. That means that they are going to see this site come up and our membership is going to go thru the roof! LMAO!!!!

I discovered that my laptop didn't have a serial port on the day at the dyno. FOrtunately there was a radio shack right next door that sold me a USB to serial and it worked great. But you do have to understand how to figure out which port it maps to.

You just have one "lying around" and whenever you get a chance you will install it? LMAO!!!!! That's awesome. Here I am trying to do research before buying one and when I do, I will be taking vacaction time right as FedEx comes to my door just to install it. I will even have a baby sitter...

I might be off on teh 200 F... it has been a while since I have ever done research to that depth, but I think I am right on that. The ECU is a standard Ford computer. Their architecture is pretty much the same across the board. Now fair warning, my memory is really sketchy on this one... Fuel...

As always; I respect everyone's inputs and all of your points are duly noted... except this one LOL! Truthfully; I can answer this without a shadow of doubt. Although the IAT and MAF sensors are usually located in the same house and temperature does have some effect on the MAF and although in...

Man; I need to wrap my pipe or something; mine gets kinda hot.

I bet if you put it on the dyno, there wouldn't be much of a difference. Our ass dynos have been known to be wrong. LOL! How cold is your cold pipe? I mean seriously, I know we have intercoolers, but the cold pipe is still a little warm. Mine is actually kinda hot. The only reason I can...

Like I said towards the bottom of this thread.... The IAT location is like Brittney Spears' singing career; it just doesn't matter. The ECU has very little regard to the IAT readings except during a cold start. Even if you move it to a colder location, the ECU might advance timing but after a...

Me and Brian went back and forth on this one and although he made some good points; your thoughts are about the same as mine.

I have been on these forums for several years, and although I like you guys a lot, sometimes we quibble over the small stuff LOL!!! IAT's have always been proported to be this miracle secret. I remember when I had my first car back in 1997; people were taking the IAT and moving it to their...

When I relocated the MAF, it leaned a little but that was in comparison to the stock position and the reason was because of boost leaks. Basically it leaned it for the greater good but it wasn't too lean at all. Also if you compare the AFC maps between the one I have posted and the stocksuper...

Since the CEL went away, I would gander that your ECU didn't reset. With the stock supermap, you are probably safe at 8 psi. When you get a chance, run a datalog and find out what the AFC reports as your boost. Those guages have been known to be inaccurate.

Moving the MAF can lean you out a little but shouldn't have leaned you to the point that the ECU would notice. Especally since the AFC clamps the signal to prevent the ECU from learning around it. You may want to check your connections, I have a feeling one of your splices may be a little...
