afr/egt readings

just being out in the gta just to see what readings im getting and after tanning the asp of it this is what im getting egt are about 830 degrees and afr is around 11.4 this is around 5.5k at a whopping 12psi of boost but it does feel pretty quick considering the amount of boost its running

Exhaust gas temp (EGT) before the turbo at full throttle (12 PSI boost) was reading 830C, AFR Air fuel ratio ended up at around 11.4, was just wondering what anyone in the know made of the readings? i would think the 11.4 afr is fine at low boost (12psi) but the egt reading?????
Hope that makes sense just got the gauge connected up and am interested in any comments? i.e. what egt is melt-down

'Tis Steve the younger methinks .......( but I'm beginning to think they're one and the same )
Dunno if it's good or bad

830C, the older Steves fault Lee not logging out best having a pc each

Catching up with myself and confusing others Edit the edit .

Its not too excessive, and it depends where you have got the EGT probe. On a tubular manifold setup, most of the exhaust heat builds up at the collector at the turbo, so if you probe is there, you can expect high'ish readings..

11.4 is a low AFR for power, but its probably helping you for torque.

yeah the probe is mounted at the collector im going to turn the boost upto 1bar and see what happens to the readings

the alpine is now running 1bar of solid boost and it hasnt gone bang yet but the readings have changed afr/12.2 and egt/880c i might be daring and sqeeze another 1psi out of her it definatley feels alot quicker and i would say lag has increased but not enough to be concered about

Bet you wished you hadnt said that now

it could have been worse
