I think I might tape over my fang vents, and see if them not pulling in so much air changes anything. If this map does the same I mean... I’ll tape them closed, drive a couple of days on the same map, then see if it’s doing it on that log without the extra air.

Does that make sense?

If that’s what it is, then the air vent fang mod is doing more than I thought, bringing in enough air to screw with the tune.
I was going to make a pithy comment ab your fangs, but then I actually thought ab it during today's drive. First I thought naw. Then typed a long response. Then thought more and said maybe.

#swayfangs is basically an economical version of the dewla dezigns air flow guide or whatever. That's supposed to add 5HP on a Z with bolt-ons. Since #swayfangs is reproducing the same effect, it could be enough to throw the tune off.

Sidenote: checked my catch cans two days ago, 3000 miles after I put the PCVs back on. One can had a trace of oil. The other was bone dry. With the pcv delete there would usually be half an inch of gas/water in each can.
