Default Dyno said my air fuel ratio is way off, need help.

I posted this in Scan & Tune but haven't got any replies, Hopefully someone in here could help me out.
I had my car on a dyno yesterday and it showed that my car is way too lean. The only mods I have installed are things around the air intake. Is there any way I can richen my car without spending big money for a tune. I'm just trying to save a few dollars since I'm on a limited budget, any suggestion is appreciated. The dyno showed 322.7 rwhp/ 321 ft-lbs torque with a 14.7 as the air fuel ratio. I was told this air fuel ratio is way too high. Thanks

:iagree: That's a way to richen up inexpensively. Maybe it's a coincidence, but 14.7 is the stoic #. Is the 14.7 at WOT?

BTW those are pretty good power #'s.
Other alternatives: Edit or Predator.

Zoltan...that's why I have the MAFT ;) got my A/F ratio dialed in :D

Dyno tuning will also work and since Faster Proms is sponsoring those gift certs for tuning as part of the Corvette Challenge, we should take advantage :D
