Closed Loop issues

[0966Sy]

My Syclone will not go into closed loop at idle, or will it go into closed loop during or after a WOT blast. I have watched it on datamaster during the WOT runs and it never went into closed loop. With 15psi and 2 degree's of KR tops, engine temps stay right at 155-165 F. My question is, I want to know what the easiest route to get this thing into closed loop faster. I've got to get to tuning this thing and it's got to pass emmisions first.

I have the following cooling mods:
Griffen 3 core radiator
160 stant thermostat
Ramcharger's dual electric fans (wired to IC pump relay for 160F turn on)
RPM A2A
EGR delete
new o2 sensor

P.S. Could i change to a 180 stat, or does the 50# Ultimate need the 160?
Appreciate the help,
Erik

i thought the 50# chips are "open loop" chips. not 100% sure...

only the last 3 programs are open loop

Thanks guy's, I've totally forgotten that it was for open loop. I've got to get this thing to pass emmisions now, so maybee i should use the valet program. Not to mention makeing it look like my EGR is functional :roll:
I also have to get the latest version so i can use the T1-15/16 programs. Hmm i wonder if the valet program will work. This upgrade is only an excuse to get one of those new bad ass guage style Ultimate's. Good work Todd

Throw it in the valet mode, all the programs are open loop, as said before.

Not sure if we've covered it (I think we did) but make sure you have version 3 or 4 on the 50# chip.

You shouldn't have any problems passing emissions once in closed loop, and the engine is fully warmed up. You *may* have to run the engine a bit hotter though.
