so if i go to a dyno and tell them that i need tuned to my pulley they will know what i am talking about? another thing, will i be able to tell if my car is running lean by its performance or anything like that?

upon reading your replies i think it might be better for ya 2 take it to the dyno and let them do it. Wont cost alot more than that wideband would have...and it will take the guesswork out of it.

If you were planning on changing pulleys alot or doing alot more mods i would say invest in the wideband.

if you have really lean spots it hesitates, but you are running lean all across the board no doubt about it...more PSI =More AIR and ure using the same amount of fuel as before=LEAN

is this your way of saying that i am not capible????? jking man i am very mechanically gifted, but i am a virgin to solara's!!! thanks so much for your help! hey will it hurt the car to drive it to the dyno shop with the new pulley on before it is tuned?

You'll be fine, just don't go crazy boostin' for now. :wink:

you make more power the leaner you run, but running lean = detination = broken internals... Keep your foot out of it till you get it tuned... You can put your foot into it at your own risk, but I would advise not to

thanks guys i am going to get it tuned this weekend! you guys are tremendously helpful!

by **Wang2k** » Mon Jul 17, 2006 9:14 am

yeah you could do it yourself no doubt but the wideband cost like 250 at the very least. or u could get a dyno tune and know what kind of power you are making. if you are just gonna leave the 5.5 on there just get it dynoed. If you plan on building your internals then get the wideband

do you have a ballpark on what a dyno tune should cost me? my wife might just cutt "them" off if i spend too much.....

by **Wang2k** » Mon Jul 17, 2006 9:23 am

it really varies be the shop. If your like me there is like only 1 dyno in the state and it can be expensive. Where are you located?

by **shocar4** » Mon Jul 17, 2006 9:25 am

nw illinois! i have a dyno about twenty minutes away i'm going to call and find out prices!

IMO the AEM UEGO 6-1 is the best wideband 02 sensor. the controller is built into the gauge and it comes with the sensor. I have one in all 3 of my cars. the Celica, All-Trac, and Supra
