fail.. So new spark plugs are in and new lamda @pollyp we shall see if its that laggyness? Bosch is a good brand for lamda right ? He was amazed at the car and its condition... Then followed to ask... How much money have you spent on this car.

my lambda reacts lazily like yours chris (fluctuating about once a second), and passed the emissions easily
were you running the CGA injectors ?
 
Cga sorry I do remember before all the troubles the lambda was going crazy. It's been soaked in oil and crap replaced for another crapish one. Well for safety when mapped I would like the car at he right afr lol. So a new lambda will ensure that

pretty high CO eh, expired cat maybe ?
Yeah but co is pretty much bloody there.. Issue is the HC are the 100 mark so it must be working no? 200 is the limit.. We are doing well just so bloody close

"Fast Idle Test
Engine speed 2500 - 3000 rpm
CO level = 0.18% (min = n/a, max = 0.20)
HC level = 13ppm (min = n/a, max = 200)
Lambda = 1.00 (min = 0.97, max = 1.03)

Natural Idle Test
Engine speed 450 - 1500 rpm
CO level = 0.05% (min = n/a, max = 0.30)"

Do you not have a cat fitted yet?
@frank look.. You might be right that's a good HC reading.

i think the turbo will only affect the HC chris (oil ingress) it wont be creating any mani boost @ 3k (only chargepipe boost)
does the lambda swing faster when you drop the fuel pressure ? (my N/A setup did)
 
carbon monoxide is a product of running rich no?
possible introduce a very small air leak to run a bit leaner :D maybe might possibly work.
I always had the IC piping disconnected for the MOT but as frank says it shouldn't make any difference really. I think i would disconnect it for next time still.
The cat was pretty much new when you go it, it should be ok, did you take it for a good raggin before the test?
emission imo are the hardest thing when it comes to MOTs

Whut.
 
Yeah it is Ed. Thee hc is okay and the lands is pushing high 1.3 so if o can get a new one which reacts super fast and is nice and low it should lean out faster as you can see on the print out the final idle test was so close. If I can get it to lean quickly at the end we should be good :)

Pribs if you introduce an air leak the hydrocarbons shoot up big style lol. Draws air in lol
