The closer I got to WOT, when the car was running semi-safely, the closer my AFRs got to normal. I was at 14ish under medium-heavy load, but I never did WOT. Sebastian sent me a tune rev based on the data that I gave him to try and compensate, but it didn't have any effect on the car...

The second thing I checked was those connectors and they are physically intact and seem fine. Data doesn't show any errors there. The engine is pulling timing and fuel a good bit a good bit. Fuel trims are ~ minus 20-30% and timing is retarded. Pulley install was pain-free and a simple pull of and replace. No banging around or anything like that.

All grounds are tight.
