On WOT you will want your O2 voltages between .880 and .890, with up to .900 okay. You will want your KR at or nearest to 0 as possible (try for this), and your LTFT at 0. All this is under WOT (wide open throttle), btw.

Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Sincerely...

No, friend, you mentioned if your specs aren't what I stated, then how do you know which way to go, so I'm curious to know if you already have your #'s from your live data?

You cannot tune WOT with the stock O2 sensors. In addition, the WOT ratio will vary over the RPM range. Shooting for one value may not provide the best results.

Then how do I go about this ?

The PCM will always maintain 14.7:1 while cruising closed loop on the street. This is done via STFT & LTFT correction. If you want the initial closed loop fuel metering more accurate (with less fuel trim correction) then you take readings & make changes on the street.

The WOT A/F ratio should be tuned on a wideband dyno.
