Kpro oil consumption

Post by Nazul »

Dear guys,

Can a car start burning more oil on a calibration with kpro on K20A2?
What circumstances can cause this? AFR too rich or too lean? Too aggressive cam angles? Timings perhaps?

My car was kprod and calibrated by an authorized tuner to make 242 BHP 232 nm torque

My setup is:

ITG maxogen airbox
RBC manifold
Hondata heat gasket
Hytech header
Doma racing 3" exhaust

Regards

The tuning it itself does not affect oil consumption. However, if you run the engine very lean (and overheat the pistons) or very rich (and wash down the bores) then you could affect the ring seal.

Currently my car uses, 1 liter on 2000 km, is that a lot or normal consumption? VTEC from 3500 RPM and redline 8600 RPM on Valvoline maxlife 10W40
