Ive recently fitted an induction kit in my(98) vtr, but as the instructions say it may be necessary to re-caliber the fuel injection mixture to 0.5% above recommended o2 level? do i need to have this done, and can i do it myself as i'm pretty hands on or is it a job for a full time grease monkey?? any ideas??? what will happen if i dont have this done?

Your engine uses lambda control to balance the air/fuel ratio...



You could increase fuel by upping fuel pressure, or using a fuel computer.... but basically, if you car needs more fuel, the lambda system will have sensed the extra air and supply more fuel.



At full throttle, a fuel pressure increase wiould give you extra, safely.



I'd just leave it as it is though... unless your planning more engine mods soon?
