Default Dyno Tuning @ AA Corvette - Fixed lean condition

Took the car to Andy @ AA Corvette this weekend and had it dyno tuned with wideband - on the first pull we found a extreme lean a/f ratio. I had been running it like this for months......is there anything I should be worried about?

My baseline was 20 rwhp less than before - could this be an effect of the 3.90 gears? What is the normal rwhp loss for adding gears?

I have to say that, once again, Andy provided service that is second to none and came in early Saturday morning to accomodate me. Anyone living in Southern Cali would be crazy not to use his shop for their service needs! Thanks again Andy!! :cheers: :cheers:

Those numbers look pretty good through those gears and no heads.
Did you look at your plugs? If they are not burned your likely okay.

That's great to know that we have another tuner up and running in the area - maybe the competition will drive the "going rate" down a bit. What did it cost if you don't mind me asking - you can email me if don't want to broadcast it. INTOFX@aol.com
