you do realize your af is 12.5 up top? if you lower the af to a safe level your power will likely drop... but you will have that added safety

The install looks clean, and the graph is nice, but she is a little lean up top...

Once things heat up after some hard driving, you can be sure that it will be a bit higher then 12.5. I've toasted a few motors over the years, some may have been my fault, some were not. Better safe then sorry, add some fuel, lose a small amount of power, and have a safer longer term toy to play with.

Good luck, and congrats on the new setup!

True. I would have that lowered. I would rather have it at a safe AFR and have a running car and a little less HP then to have it grenade on me.

May I suggest a Methanol Injection Kit - it will up the AFR, cool the cylinders and make it safer - it is a cheap investment for our FI motors

Thanks,Matt

I was amazed with my car when it gained 230rwhp on a standard kit with meth. No mpg change either! Great numbers on your car, enjoy the boost!
