What numbers to look at - Accessport Data
As I was driving home from the gym today, I noticed the car was being really sluggish below 3500rpm. I was almost all the way home before i actually noticed this because the whole way home from my gym is pretty much stop and go. The car had just warmed up (by this i mean the needle reached the middle just as i was leaving the parking lot.) The only gauge i have in the car is the factory boost gauge, and the car was reaching full boost around 4500rpm. It's possible that this is all just in my head, but ill find out tomorrow when its light out, and the roads are dry. Anyway, the point of this post was to find out if there are any vital data points i could check out with my accessport that might help me figure out whats going on (if there is in fact anything) I know how to use the live data functions, i just dont have any idea what the numbers SHOULD look like. Also, it wasnt clutch slipping; i was watching the tachometer.
car and engine mods: 2002 wrx sedan, cobb stage 2(w/ cat), cobb OTS St.2 map, cobb heatshield.
cliff's notes: how can i use Cobb AP to hunt for possible problems (looking at data, since no CELs are coming up)
