We'll have to get to the bottom of this to figure out exactly what's up, but I'd guess we may be seeing some hotter air.
In regards to full time closed loop, we disagree with some of the other voices here regarding that application on the BRZ/FR-S. While some OEMs may use a similar type of strategy, they have failsafes built in that this ECU does not. So if the sensor drifts your AFR will also and you'll never know it. Frankly it is a easier way to tune in bulk since you just let the custom map set the AFR, but the easier way is not always the best way. It is indeed much harder to set the correct MAF scaling and temp compensations manually. Also we leave 6 additional custom maps open when we leave that feature out, which enables us to implement the custom TC, flex fuel support, electronic boost control, smooth rev limit, etc...

Thanks for the closed loop info on the 86.
Forgot about the original ecu limitations as I run standalones on my FI cars. Not sure if ecutek allows change of digital inputs like they do with analog inputs, otherwise a good wideband controller with a fail safe trigger output can be used in a similar fashion to overboost ptotection?
