Howdy all
Finally got out and ran some data logging. Got no idea what Im lookn at lol.but Im trying to learn. Ran ICP% and was getting bout 8/9% at idle 14/15% at 1500rpm and high 20's to low 30's 2200-2500 rpm. What is that actually telling me..
Most 99.5-03's with a stock HPOP usually sit around 500 psi and 10-12% duty cycle at idle.
At WOT and in bone stock tuning, you should see (with a healthy HPOP) about 2900 psi at over 40% duty cycle.
In a high HP tune, expect the duty cycle to be at least 65%, and pressures lower at 2200 psi or so with a fairly healthy HPOP at WOT. Stock HPOP's just can't keep up with oil hungry split shots when running a higher HP tune.
try both tunes...creuise about 65 MPH click record then role into the go peddle till you are flat footed so she doesnt down shift on you.you can try starting at 50MPH but she might want to down shift...you have a little more weight to push then Joe does...if it shifts you wont get a very honest reading....your run should be complete at about 90 MPH...
this test is done at a stand still but can also be used on wot runs..what you really need is just ICP and duty cycle...

IDLE:
WOT:
At Idle Injector Control Pressure should be above 500psi (on a fully warmed truck
pressure will generally be between 480psi and 550psi. If you are monitoring during
cranking you can see spikes upwards of 2200psi. The IPR (Injector CRTL Pres DC)
should be between 10-15% at idle with the Accelerator Pedal Position also between 10-
15%. At WOT Injector CRTL Pres DC should not exceed 65% with ICP not below
1800psi and Accelerator Pedal Position between 70-80%.
DO NOT PERFORM THE
WOT TEST WITH AN AFTERMARKET TUNE OR CHIP THE REV LIMITER

MANUFACTURER.
Exhaust backpressure should be between 10-15psi at idle (above example taken with
EBPV closed) and should not exceed 45psi at WOT. A very low pressure at idle 3-5psi
that just barely rises with acceleration can be a sign of a clogged tube and sensor or a bad
sensor if cleaning doesn’t fix it. This is best done over the road for the most accurate
results.
ICP volts can be used to diagnose a bad sensor with a multi-meter if a scan tool is not
available. See Table Below
